The Orange get their first test of the season.  Late word is that Cal's small forward Theo Robertson has a right foot injury and is doubtful to play tonight.  One down...

Tonight only has room for one disappointment, right?

tip-off at 7:10

and it will probably be on a different channel to start, as the Indiana-Ole Miss game won’t be done by then.

by MrPlow99 on Nov 19, 2009 7:01 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Correct.

The next episode of Dexter where we can figure out exactly what’s going to happen isn’t going to disappoint us til Sunday.

Like I posted in that recruit thread, Theo Robertson is a huge loss for us. HUGE. He doesn’t get the hype of our other guards, but he is an incredible college player.

Good luck to you guys tonight, but I really feel we (Cal) don’t have a shot except for flukey good shooting or something. Enjoy!

Siena picked as #20 in Sports Illustrated

I’m sitting here reading SI while waiting for the SU game to start. Was surprised to see Siena listed at #20. I’ve had Siena season tickets for 15 years. My heart is with the Orange, but it’s nice to see some live college hoops here in Albany.

There is no way Siena would beat SU. Nice press for them, though.

From the Gary Parrish Blog..

Dear Gary (on my sh-t being together)

Here’s Thursday’s Dear Gary …

Dear Gary: Dude, No. 13 California needs to beat Syracuse before they can meet North Carolina or Ohio State on Friday, and that ain’t happening! Get your sh-t together if you want to be a college basketball columnist.

— Stephen Leahy

Oh, Stephen, my sh-t is together. You see, the Coaches vs. Cancer has a championship game and a consolation game. So regardless of whether California beats Syracuse or loses to Syracuse on Thursday night, California will play North Carolina or Ohio State on Friday night. Just like I said. And California is a slight favorite in the game. So you’re stupid on multiple levels, genius.

okay, time to nitpick

our FT shooting is dreadful.
triche is going too fast on the offensive end.
our FT shooting is godawful.
scoop should not be shooting 3s unless it’s wide open in rhythm (and maybe not even then).
our FT shooting is atrocious.
wes needs to go up for dunks with both hands.
our FT shooting is so bad they should rename them costly throws instead of free throws. i think we should label them CTs, although people might confuse that with the medical scans.

All their games on ESPN and ESPN2 are also broadcast on ESPN360. What pisses me off is that games on ESPNU are not. I don’t understand it.

if you want to call a game at MSG a home game

Was there tonight....

Garden was rocking whenever ‘Cuse made a move. Great times. That said, with about 5 mins left in our game, a ton of people in Carolina Blue filed in (place played at about 60-65% capacity for most of our game). I have been to nearly all of Cuse’s MSG games the last few years and UConn is the only team I have ever seen give them a run for the crowd’s heart. If tonight was any indication though, UNC faithful will give it a shot tomorrow….

Watching away from the ball, Scoop seems to have really developed his ability to know where to be when not handling the ball (a la Kristoph!). Could be a great sign for things to come.

Alright, back to the booze. Tomorrow we hunt the elusive Tarheel…..
