More on Williams Yow—–The gauntlet has been layed down.

April 5th, 2011 · 2 Comments · College Basketball

Some observations on a pathetic Championship game: –The Big Guy Alex Oriakhi was the difference tonight 11 points, 11 rebounds 4 blocks and he just totally frustrated Matt Howard. –I thought Shelvin Mack should have been given the ball way before the game was hopelessly over. –As I predicted the team with the best player, [...]
