ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS
Damn stereotypes!
Last night the Arizona Wildcats faced a tough test from Rene and the rest of the Fabulous Rougeau Brothers on the UNLV roster. It’s amazing how quickly Kevin O’Neill can turn a group of explosive offensive players into absolute dog shit, but hey, the guy is a master. Jordan Hill was dominant again with 16 points and 19 rebounds. Then he raped the shit out of Bill Brasky, Chuck Norris, and Tim Tebow at the same time.
Arizona 52 - UNLV 49
Follow after the jump for additional action from around the country.
The real SCLSU.
Coach Klein must have really coached up Nicholls State (south central Louisiana’s finest institution of higher learning with majors ranging from alchemy to taxidermy) because those plucky bastards managed to hang with UNC for the full 40 minutes. For some reason Roy Williams was greatly displeased by this outcome, and the players will pay the price. Huckleberry Hound told the media that his goal for the subsequent practice would be “to see how many guys I can make throw up.” Always the teacher’s pet, Tyler Hansbrough headbutted a cameraman’s knee and chugged a bottle of Ipecac while pleading his coach to watch him set the example. The concussed pre-season POY (*cough*my ass*cough*) led the way for the Heels with 27 and 11 to go along with his 4 awkward flexes.
UNC 88 - Nicholls State 78
A Rose by any other name would have sweet tits.
Freshman sensation Derrick Rose might be pretty good at this whole basketball thing. The Final Four-bound Memphis Tigers moved to 9-0 behind Rose’s “career” high of 27 points at the expense of Mick Cronin’s (fake name?) Cincinnati Bearcats. The former Huggins assistant has some talent, but he’s just too damn sober to put it all together.
Memphis 79 - Cincinnati 69

I know he seems like a swell guy who drinks an absurd amount of Coke, but I wouldn’t want to get on Roy Williams’ bad side. He was seething at the press conference.
(I should have known that the Fonz was the mastermind behind that smallball lineup. Fuckin’ A.)

Smart thinking. He’d crush you live a dove if he had the opportunity.
Williams is a weasel.

“He’d crush you live a dove”
Dove crushing has become an all to common practice.

Williams started the dove crushing trend. Ahhh, the infamous Crushed Dove speech by Al Bohl. Classic.

KC,
So, do you honestly hate Williams or are you just not that satisfied with Self?
(The few Jayhawk fans that I’ve talked to sound like one comes with the other. Color me curious.)

Nah, I don’t hate Williams. I do hate how the media portrays him as some sort of saint. He’s as sleazy as any other red-blooded NCAA coach. We are currently on probation for stuff that happened under his watch (you won’t here Vitale mention that!). However, he did a lot of good for KU and Al Bohl was a horrible AD.
I didn’t like the Self hire, but I’ve definately warmed up to him. Roy’s teams choked in the tourney several times, so to hold it against Self when he was using Roy’s players and trying to get them to fit in a different system seems a bit specious. The team is loaded this year so we’ll see. Self is going to be fine.

Kansas fans are never satisfied. I know because I am one. We’re almost as bad as Duke fans, except we don’t cry when our team loses. (Not in public, at least.)

Jeremy Case is still on the roster…the last vestiges of the Roy era.
I hear his shot is looking great in practice.
