Michigan finally looks relevant again. Glenn Robinson III is going to be a beast.

Watching the B1G teams play makes me depressed. It'll be amazing if Pat Chambers gets 4 wins for Penn State in conference play this season.

What an odd season to say that, unless you're just depressed at how ****** it is to be Penn State.

Penn State could legitimately be better this year and in any other conference go to the NIT, but because of how strong the B1G, we'd get like 2 wins.
On the flip side, any win at home will pretty much be an upset over a top 25 team.

They're not nearly as good as they were last year. It will be a while before they have a team like that again.

I doubt Wiggins goes to Kentucky. The team is too loaded. He'd get to showcase himself more if he went to another school.

I don't understand why showcasing is an issue. For the NBA? Scouts already love him and Calipari has had no issue getting multiple guys to go high in the draft no matter how much talent he has on a roster. He just had guys go 1-2 last year. Plus regardless of where Wiggins goes he'll be the best player on the roster.
I'm not saying Wiggins goes to Kentucky (although I think he does), but a team being too loaded is a terrible reason. Plus you kind of contradict yourself, it'll be awhile before Kentucky has a team as good as last year but next year's team is going to be too loaded for the best high school player in the country to go there?

Forreal!? Oh man that is news to me. I forgot they had what like 6 players drafted? Idc. I'll take beating teams like UNC, KU, UK etc any day of the week.

I'll look down upon him if he doesn't go somewhere where he'll be the guy instead of playing with 3-4 other top 10 picks. It says that he's afraid to be the guy.

Or it says that he wants to go to what is currently the best school in the nation at developing NBA talent. What the **** should he do, ask the Harrison twins to go to Kansas?

Kansas, UNC, Kentucky, Duke, Michigan State, etc. These are the schools that get the top talent year in and year out. Top recruits ganging up together is nothing new at all, and holding it against someone for going to a school known for developing NBA players is pretty dumb.

Yeah exactly. And have a chance to compete for a national championship, given he's only going to be in college one year. Also, being "the guy" on a team like Kentucky with all the talent they're going to have is a lot more impressive than being "the guy" on Florida State. And he will be "the guy" on Kentucky because he's better than anyone else who will be there, or anywhere else he would go for that matter. Now winning a title with Florida State would be more impressive obviously, but not as likely.
If he wants to go to FSU I wouldn't blame him either. His parents went there, I'm sure he's got a good relationship with the coach, and he'll go #1 basically regardless of where he goes as long as nothing major happens. I don't really think he can make a bad decision, I just don't ge why you'd rip on the kid for going to Kentucky. I don't like Kentucky, but it's pretty clear why kids want to play there.

Illinois needed a 3 at the buzzer in OT to escape with a win over Hawaii.
