    UNC v Kansas tonight

    Baylor gets to try to prove to me that the Gonzaga game was an anomaly when they play #18 Arkansas. We will see.

    He's probably my favorite player to watch.

    I'm not up on the current NCAA regs, but I noticed he played (a little) professionally in Spain for a couple of years...how is he eligible? Just curious. Just from the few highlights I've seen, he's going to be fun to watch. Huge test vs Alabama in a couple of weeks.

    I've always liked Illini hoops, going back to the Lou Henson days. Yall have beaten Eastern Illinois and Southern Illinois...only need to take out Northwestern to claim the Illinois State Directional School Title.

    I think something to do with the new NIL system? He's getting paid $750,000 to play in Illinois, so it was a no-brainer for him to choose it over staying in Barcelona.

    For the record, I'm not really an Illinois fan. Well, I guess now I am. But just because Jakucionis is my fellow Lithuanian. Always like to follow the young Lithuanians and root for their success. Between Jakucionis, Krivas, Murauskas, Lelevicius and Marciulionis, this year it's especially fun to follow college hoops as a Lithuanian as all of them are (or can be eventually) difference makers for their respective teams. The potential!

    The SEC can always kiss my ass, but I really like Mark Pope

    I am starting to think that Auburn "might be" the best team in the nation.
