dominate performance tonight , just the way he got his kids to bounce back after the Xavier game is impressive.

[face]

he has them shimmying and passing and faking and passing and grinding and passing and passing and then maybe shooting.

tarheels tired, humiliated and confused after butler finally scores.

guy is good.

Team is built to embarass idiot teams like north Carolina

Of all that "tarheels...humiliated" stands out the most. Hate butler (gf graduated from there), but those boys are putting on a clinic tonight on basic passing and shooting. LOVE college basketball!

i really thought this team was going to have a down year...really impressive turn around. no idea they would be able to score like this.

Marshall is building his stock so much I been watching him since High School

stevens is a great coach but this team crumbled against the press....29 point lead was down to 6 at one point...18 turnovers...lack of a good pg

unc was fukkin pathetic in the first 30 minutes of the game in terms of both effort and execution....theyre gonna take some lumps this year

Great coach but I'd rather give the credit to the kids.

Then you would be mislead

I love how Stevens handled his team after the Xavier loss, he made ZERO excuses for them basically called them out in the media for playing like shit at both ends.

[Chi_archie]

Its great that Stevens has stayed at Butler

95% of other coaches would have moved on

[t-wizzle]

Then you would be mislead

I think he's a great coach but I think in general coaches get too much credit/blame.

I think he's a great coach but I think in general coaches get too much credit/blame.

college hoops is the one place that coaches are 99% responsible for the success of the program/franchise

whether it's because they recruit or because of x's and o's it's pretty much a fact

First time we ever disagreed, coaches don't get enough credit

Butler/Illinois line?

[Inkwell77]

Illinois -3.5?

I would be surprised if Butler is the favorite.

[Inkwell77]

Line seems right. Although I would definitely lean Illinois here with the way they played against USC. That could have just been a lucky night, but USC is a smart basketball team.
