This is one of three ridiculous plays Tre Johnson made against A&M in the SEC tournament. He’s incredibly good…. 1/3

If you’re Craig Smith, which job is more appealing??

Fresno State in new Pac-12, or New Mexico in a weaker MWC if Richard Pitino takes a high major?

I’m here at Villanova-Marquette at Wells Fargo Center
February 22, 2025 at 12:10 AM
Game #25 of the year I’m covering. Villanova v #9 St. John’s
February 12, 2025 at 11:31 PM
Will be at the Palestra for Penn v Princeton tonight!
February 7, 2025 at 9:44 PM
I’m here at Jadwin gym covering Princeton Columbia!

After this, I’m heading down the NJ Turnpike and I-95 to head to Villanova-Georgetown!
January 20, 2025 at 6:51 PM
After covering Temple-Memphis last night, I’m here at Villanova-Providence at Wells Fargo Center!

Providence currently up 7 with 43 seconds to play in the first half. The nation’s leading scorer, Eric Dixon, is at the free throw line.

Just left the Villanova-DePaul game. It was a slaughtering. Obviously DePaul has been rough for a long time, but it shows Holtmann can’t fix everything year one. Maybe he can do what Ed Cooley has done at Georgetown and make the jump in year two.

Last episode of Bird Rights Pod, we did “Trade Machine Wars” and will likely be posting screen shots of the trades that we put against each other on here

Anthony Grant should be the favorite to land the Miami head coaching gig. Will be interesting to see
December 26, 2024 at 5:52 PM
About to be at Prudential Center to cover Rutgers-Princeton and watch Dylan Harper, Ace Bailey, Xaivian Lee, and Caden Pierce!
December 21, 2024 at 2:23 PM
Based off how this college basketball season is going, I’ll see for March madness as of now, there’d be a

12 bid SEC
9 bid Big Ten
8 bid big 12
4 bid big East
4 bid ACC
3 bid A10
3 bid MWC
2 bid WCC

The MWC and WCC could be switched

Started formatting trade ideas for mock trade deadline and fell in love with this one. Thoughts?

I am here at Finn Pavilion for Villanova v #14 Cincinnati! Roughly 20 minutes before tip,
And the crowd is surprisingly
Underwhelming. Let’s see how the seats fill up.

I admittedly need to watch a substantial bit more on nearly all these guys, but it’s obviously early in the cycle. Here’s my way too early top 100 big board for the 2025 NBA draft.
