  Scott Drew was recruiting D.J. Cooper after his Freshman year at OU (after his NCAA Tournament performance).
  
  Interesting article...

  Scott Drew might just be the shadiest coach in college basketball. That guy is scum.

  McCollum having another big night. Pick of the season Terry Tate!
• Laley23

  

  Lehigh, once again, best team on the court. But a long way to go.
  
  Hoping Dee Davis keeps up the hot shooting for X.

  Scott Drew is shady and a terrible coach.

  And not a good person, in general.

  Lehigh came to play. Will they be the first 15 to make the sweet 16?

  I wonder what % of Drew's money goes to PJIII?

  Lehigh is no joke. A program like Duke should never lose to a 15 seed -- period -- but the Mountain Hawks are not a 15 seed. This is a team that is 27-7, looking for its 10th straight victory and led by three at the half in East Lansing earlier this year against Michigan State. Lehigh also dropped single-digit games at Iowa State and St. John's.
  
  Traditionally, after a 15 or a 14 wins over a big boy in the first round of the NCAAs, such as Norfolk this year, it collapses the next game out. Lehigh is for real.

  I don't think Lehigh lost any of their games this year by single digits. I was checking out their schedule, and even though they didn't have that many big guys OOC, their result against Sparty impressed me. That being said, they definitely missed McCollum the last couple minutes, so I'm wondering if Xavier can use this run to spark something in the second half.

  Purdue certainly showed up to play. 8-0 Boilers 2:30 in.

  Then go to ESPN.com and you'll find that you are either mistaken or might have glaucoma. Lehigh has lost seven games this year and all have been by single-digits.

  I think he meant by more than single digits... he probably just forgot that key important "more than" part lol.

  Gotcha.
  
  As for Lehigh's game against Michigan State that you were talking about, I even checked back on the game recap and Izzo said going into the game he told his team that the Mountain Hawks were a good team, but that, afterward, he realized they were better than he had initially thought. Again, Coach K should have been able to do what Izzo did and find a way to win with the advantage in size alone. Alas, C.J. McCullom was just better than Duke's best player and that's that.

  I wouldn't I need Kansas to make it to the final four. I also need Elijah Johnson to start scoring some points!

  Purdue can't fucking miss
• wildcats20

  

  That is nothing other than a hard foul.
  
  Bullshit if they give the flagrant.
• wildcats20

  

  They are basically saying if you make a play on the ball and it looks bad, it's a flagrant. Bull.
  
  Tyler Zeller can take a 2 forearm shiver to the chest and nothing is called.
• slingshot4ever

  KU is playing like junk and only down 4...

  Obviously the refs didn't see it...it's not like they saw that and were like "clean play..clean play"
• wildcats20

  

  Hummel looking like his old self. GREAT to see, no matter who you are rooting for.
