Would have made a full-fledged post out of this, but there's nothing to say that I haven't said already or isn't said in the article itself. On the flipside, this one has a video. Feel free to waste 17 minutes watching. In fact, I will accept nothing less.

Finally, a blog entry by Eamonn Brennan that isn't total garbage.

CJ took home Hoopsmanifesto's Dunk of the Year title for his poster of Otto Porter. Of all the entries, Crushtastic Jam-Meister Fair's dunk might not have been the most spectacular, but it was the most meaningful and impactful when the full context was taken into account. Congrats CJ, and may there be many more posters in your college future.

Remember when Rutgers fired Head Coach Mike Rice for abuse towards his players? And then fired Tim Pernetti for covering up the abuse? Rugters "Alum" Eddie Jordan was then hired as head coach to clean up this mess. He was supposed to take over the program and coolly guide the Scarlett Knights into B1G. Well, it turns out he never graduated. From college. At Rutgers. This is a problem b/c Jersey likely requires head coaches of NCAA teams to be college grads. So, Eddie Jordan may have to frantically sign up for some "independent study" course for Maymester so he doesn't lose his job offer that starts in September. Another bang up job by the Rutgers Athletic Department.

Was wasting the last 20 minutes of my work work when I came across this.

Found this gem on YouTube. It's a little long, but worth every second of lost productivity.

This one kind of went unnoticed. But in an article in the Albany Times Union earlier in the week, word came out that John Cahill is retiring from refereeing to become the new Big East's supervisor of officials. One more old official leaving the court is a good thing.

Very interesting read about how Swofford convinced all the ACC schools to commit to a GOR. It was something that had been discussed since 2011, but wasn't really taken seriously until Maryland's departure.

I'm not sure if the author is serious or not, but I think they're serious. This comes from a Texas A&M blog and argues why Texas Tech and the ACC would be a perfect match in 2025. The author mentions playing Syracuse in football as a positive, but excludes playing Syracuse in basketball as one too. Some sort of foreshadowing for 2025? Blasphemy.
