College Ball Week #2
- Thread starter Mr. Poon
- Start date
I agree about about Butler and will take a pass on the Johnies as I don't know enough about them to pass judgement.
Steven's trademark is probably having any given team of his playing their best hoops the more they play. He's done a good job so far today of getting Marq to play his kind of game. They won't be out toughed by anybody.

0-2, one step forward and two steps back.
Updated Record: 4-6 for -5.3 untis
For Tuesday:
Wichita -5.5 for 2 units - Blue Demons in year 3 under Purnell are still a mess. No consistent rebounding or semblance of ability to run a half court offense. Yeah they will pressure and get some TO's, but they fouled a ton against weaker competition.

adding:
Cleve St. +7.5 for 1 unit
Marq -8.5 1H for 1 unit
Mich St -8.5 1H for 1 unit
may add another unit on the Shockers. Trying to confirm if a starter for DePaul (Crockett) is out or not. He's not the tallest of guys, but one of their better physical guys and considering the height disadvantage they have, could be even worst if he is out.

Thought the Demons may be turning the corner base on their dominance of AP but the Govs appear to be down quite a bit this season. I think your assessment is correct
DePaul will show flashes but they are far from a complete team and Purnell is proving he is not a top notch coach. They will catch a team or two napping in conference play, but for the most part they will not put together anything close to a complete game.
1-2 yesterday getting the larger Marquette play. For today:
Duke -4 for 1 unit - I like this Minnesota team and think they will make some noise this year, but don't think this is a good spot and though they will hang around for a half, will likely fade in this one against Duke.
