WHERE THE FUCK IS LEX

Probably drinking himself under a table and ranting to random passersby about how Kentucky is the greatest sports program in the world.

>12 days early

I'll be monitoring this thread.

I'll be attempting to keep it up all the time for the next couple of weeks, so just bookmark the catalog search page for /cbb/.

College basketball is better when the blooblods are better.

Who has the best incoming recruiting class in your conference and why is it your team?

It was a push off

>bumping it 24 hours
As a part-time contributor to /mls/, let me just say:
Good luck.

Nah there will be some times that it dies cause I have to sleep eventually, but then I'll re-post it the next time I get on. Besides, it will pick up naturally once season tip-off is close.

You could say, the refs wood-buried that call.

Cap this Akron will win a first round game and possibly make the sweets ix teen.

>Akron
>barely the 5th (FIFTH) best team in the state of Ohio
You don't even have your conference wrapped up, and that's the ONLY way you're even getting in.

>called blue bloods
>aren't actually blue bloods, just blue logos

We got a new coach woo hoo!

>SEC: 3 (Kentucky, Florida, Texas A&M)

Another one of those years, huh? Though I doubt Florida makes it... again...

cowboys?

it's almost time la

It's time...

How will >we do this year?

>legalize weed
>already seeing success with football recruiting
you'll be getting kentucky/duke/unc tier recruits in no time pham

California is about to legalize weed too though

8-4 and a bowl game if you're lucky

I'm not an Akron fan, just a prophet of the church of meme magic. Northern Iowa was my team last year.

Any matchups this season that's worth GOTY potential?

Just take a look through this list for OOC games
cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/the-top-50-non-conference-college-basketball-games-for-the-2016-17-season/
It's sorted chronologically though, and doesn't count early season tourneys that we don't know matchups for yet.

>not monmouth

Monmouth was such a meme team last year, but I like them a little more this year. If I didn't like Akron as much as I do they might have been next in line to receive my blessing.

that win against UNC

>that win at Iowa State
>two wins against Wichita

UNI last year probably had the most meme magic I have seen since the Kemba Walker UConn team.

LANCE STEPHENSOOOON

They also had the most pathetic tournament loss I have ever seen. It was worse than Gonzaga's choke against UCLA in 2006.

me too
