re: Am I the only person who likes the 35 second shot clock in college hoops
Posted by roody on 1/30/15 at 8:43 pm
I got this from the ncaa's men's basketball record book available here. The introduction of the 45-second clock in 1986 looks like it may have sped things up but going from 45 to 35 in '94 looks like it accomplished almost nothing. The game was much faster-paced with no clock in 1971 than it is now. If chopping 10 seconds off the clock didn't speed things up 20 years ago then there's no guarantee that shortening the clock would do much to help now.

Oh you're right. I forgot that he had retired from the Rams before they played the Patriots.

I may be missing something really obvious but the '92 team went 26-8 and 13-3 in conference play. Beat LSU twice but got taken to OT in Barnhill. 3 seed in the tourney but lost to Memphis in the second round.

Jon Brittenum. If he didn't get hurt in the '66 Cotton Bowl Arkansas gets back-to-back national titles.

Don't tell anyone, but my extensive wikipedia research has verified that Jones has no recruiting connections to the Southeast.

Reminds me of that one night when Jim Grobe was going to be the next coach. At least Long's got the right idea of who to target this time around.

If he was coming, he'd already be here. Congrats to him for his raise.

Now, I'm not saying that Petrino was a great recruiter, he isn't and wasn't. But the man does know talent. He has his weaknesses and I scoff at Hog fan who put him in the same level as Miles and Saban etc etc. but he is most assuredly a step up from Nutt.

Just give up with this blaming Petrino. You can't decide after the fact that it was all his fault when everyone thought we had enough talent for a respectable season beforehand.
