@CoachCarLRC I equate FTs to special teams, no one talks about them until they don’t work. Kickers only win or lose games, but if you win every possession, it rarely comes to a singular moment. I coach my youth teams to defend & rebound, value & win each possession.

@JoeLodanosky I’ll be honest with you. I’ve coached 14 years at Laroche. Won 4 Conference Championships & had a stretch of playing 7 straight Conference Championship Games. Not once at the end of the season have I looked at our FT%. I agree with you about 70%. Many other stats matter more!

How do you shoot 40% from 3 & less than 70% from the FT line?

@CoachCarLRC If you’re making 35% plus from 3, chuck away! But the Redhawks aren’t big, very guard driven. I’m not going to lie, not shooting 70% plus from the FT line isn’t acceptable at any level.

@JoeLodanosky You didn’t ask if it was right or wrong. You asked HOW? LOL The 3 point lines wins and loses teams games way more than the FT line does in 2026.

@CoachCarLRC You’re likely not wrong, but that also doesn’t make it right. Just astounding that a team that doesn’t want to play in a traditional half court offense, doesn’t also shoot it at a high level from the stripe.

@JoeLodanosky College kids shoot 3s with more confidence than FTs and contested layups. I can only imagine many (if not ALL) shoot way more 3s in workouts than FTs.

The kid got fouled 4 times in one possession & the broadcast team doesn’t mention it?

@PaulZeise Imagine telling this story 20 years ago, turning down Syracuse for any job?

Is Providence a better job than South Florida?

Nate Oats on his "Hey Coach" radio show tonight on Aden Holloway: "Look, we've got standards in our program. We've got ways we've held our guys accountable. We try to keep everything in-house. Obviously some of the situations you can't. This is one of those. Situation is a little different when we found out what was going on this morning -- I found out this morning. I guess it all went down this morning. We had to suspend him pending the investigation by the UA office of student conduct. We're disappointed in his behavior. With that said, we still love him. He's still our guy. We're going to get him the help that he needs. ... We're preparing to play without him this weekend."

Alabama says Aden Holloway has been removed from campus so think his status is officially doubtful for the NCAA tournament.

@TheChadWithrow In all fairness, it just means more in the SEC

Nate Oats runs the most undisciplined program in college basketball.

A 375 yard drive, tied for the lead is insane.

@realjuveino If they don’t at least call Manchel…….

Two NCAA tournament berths during my four years at Bona, plus a surprise run to the 2019 Atlantic 10 final. Above all, an education on winning basketball — turnovers, rebounds and free throws.

Mark Schmidt taught me a ton about basketball during my time as a student reporter. Bona alumni are forever indebted to Schmidt for his resurrection of our beloved basketball program. Thank you, Coach!

#Pitt would love to move on but literally can’t afford it. I fixed it for you Jon.

Someone explain to Luke Loucks timeouts are not like sick days, you don’t get paid for them at the end of the game if you don’t use them…

If #FloridaState happens to beat #Duke, are they still a tournament team? Did I do that right?

I’d love an explanation as to why Brisker signed a 1 year deal? What’s the back story? #Steelers
