Thursday Thoughts
January 31, 2008 9:43 pm by Coach OTaking a leaf from Big Willie Style’s post last week….. here goes:
Luke Harangody right now is the Big East Player of the Year. Hands down! Just watched him score 32 on PC and make the 2 free throws that tied the game in regulation and sent it to OT where ND finally got their scoring touch back. PC can shoot the 3’s from halfcourt or maybe farther and started to late in the game but Coach Brey’s boys used dribble penetration and Haragody’s strength to take charge and win the game extending their home win streak to 32.
UConn can win without the Dyson. Both Wiggins and Dyson are tied now with 2 failed drug tests each. They will definitely set a Big East record for failed tests by the time they are seniors if either make it that far. Both being Sophs, it may be best for the Huskies to sit them on the pines and let Stanley Robinson and A.J. Price shine. The team is much better chemistry wise with Dyson in his dorm room.
Georgetown can destroy an opponent. After so many close wins the Hoyas made St. John’s look like a HS JVteam last night.
WVU cannot win when going 1-22 from 3-point land. I was watching the UC-WVU game and couldn’t believe the shooting futility of the ‘Neers. 1-22 from three and not much better from close range. A team can’t shoot 20% in a Big East game and break the 40 point mark.
THIS IS A CRAZY - TYPICAL BIG EAST SEASON. Never seen anything like this. EVER!. Not since last year….. and we won’t see another crazy, topsy-turvy season in the BE for a long time— probably not till next year! What a league!!!! By far, the best, most entertaining and unpredictable league in the USA!
BIG EAST HOOPS ARE THE GREATEST - DUDE!

Great game last night. I agree, Harangody is the League MVP right now.
I made a change in the section on UConn….name calling is not necessary on my part although I thought ‘Doobie Brothers’ was kind of cute!
DUDE? I’m a UConn fan, a season ticket holder and a contributer. I’m wondering how the money I donate each year is being used? Hmmmm! They are kids and kids will be kids but at some point one has to assume they would learn a lesson and straighten out. If I’m disappointed I can’t imagine how the team feels about it. All the hard work they put in can crash and burn now. I hope it doens’t and they continue with the great play. DUDE!
