What the???

It's NCAA Basketball season, and being a Hoos fan, I was relegated to chalking up ANOTHER season to a rebuilding year. But miraculously, the Hoos have knocked off VA. Tech and North Carolina this week , propelling them into a tie for third in the conference. I know - it's still early in the conference season - but not too early to notice that Dave Leito has them playing defense and winning games doing it. The key stat for this HUGE win against North Carolina - 12 blocked shots! What a difference a disciplined coach makes!

    Aw C,mon,
    Anyone had to be better than Pete "The Human Bobble-Head" Gillen. We'll see if they are for real come Mar. 1 at the Dean Dome. Roy should have them playin' some ball by then. Luke and Arizona on the 28th, seems Leito didn't schedule any out of conference powerhouse's. Like ....Kentucky (great win for the Heels, got em ranked). Good test for a young team. I guess the Hoos will have to stick with conference play. Let's see how the Cav's handle Miami.

    Sour Grapes???

    Leito and the Cavs have played then #8 Arizona in Arizona 2 months ago, and # 11 Gonzaga a month later so I don't understand your comment about OOC play.

    Great win for the Hoos, got UNC unranked ;)

    45 pts. Ouch. That's gotta hurt.
    Kinda like what the hoos did to Longwood in that tough OOC matchup.
