Just watched OU beat Michigan. I stopped watching around the Blake Griffin years mostly bc of the amount of stupid fouls called in the sport. I watched both OU and Michigan have wide open layups with zero contact and have fouls called repeatedly. How does anyone enjoy this crap?

Probably better than football now because you can at least expect half your starters to be there year-to-year

I remember the OU dynasty days when they had Championship football and basketball teams in the same academic years.

At least you’re prepared for what’s coming in the conference schedule.

If Bill Watts couldn't keep it going for more than 10 years, I don't like Greg Sankey's odds too much.

It's better now than it was a few years ago when teams like Wisconsin & Virginia could just assault the opposing offense & win games by only scoring 46 points.

You don't want to be watching basketball this early in the season. That is like investing in meme coins.

I don't get it either. It's complete crap.

When penalties become the overriding aspect of a game - you have no game.

The game was designed for 5'8" gomers to shoot the ball. Now it's 7 feet telephone poles fighting for position under the hoop.

Raise the goal and make 'em shoot from the court. It would reduce fouls and be more entertaining.

But of course not.

Sounds like you made the right choice to stop watching in 2009.
