Dort declares for the NBA draft. I felt he could have benefited from playing more in the NCAA, but good for him. Hope he fits in somewhere.

The Hausers are transferring from Marquette and Wisconsin is viewed as the favorite to land them. Badgers were in on Sam in 2016 but Bo Ryan wanted a guard so Sam went to Marquette and Joey was always viewed as a package with Sam. The Badgers now have 3 open scholarships and Sam's girlfriend is a volleyball player at UW potentially giving them another leg up. Michigan State and Virginia are the two other schools most mentioned but neither have two open scholarships.

Duke lands commitment from 5-star PG for 2020

Blue Devils coach Mike Krzyzewski has landed the No. 1 recruiting class in the country three years in a row and five times in the past six years.

^More zone defenses, I bet

The panel also approved resetting the shot clock at 20 seconds after a field goal attempt hits the rim and the offensive team rebounds the ball in the front court.

Yuck. I know that the NBA did this too recently, but I don't like it.

College basketball recruiting: Five-star guard RJ Hampton to play in Australian NBL, rejects Kansas, Memphis, Texas Tech

Old news, but I wonder if this may become a trend (and not due to being rejected by a school academically).

The NCAA 3 point line has been moved back to the FIBA/WNBA line.

This goes well in Myles Powell's favor.

U Conn is returning to the Big East.

Probably financial

Too bad. I liked the true round robin in the Big East.

I'd imagine the Big East will go the Big Ten route and each program will play 20 conference games now.

Yeah, probably.

This is for 2020, but I'm excited. I hope the bloodlines are really good.

Georgia Tech has (among other punishments) been banned from participating in all 2020 postseason tournaments, and has been given 4 years of probation for 2 boosters providing "impermissible benefits": Two Georgia Tech men’s basketball boosters provided impermissible benefits

These benefits have been a part of college sports as long as I remember. You'd think schools would know better by now and stop them from happening.

Apologies for delayed reply! I only check a couple of forums this time of year.

I'd be fine with the hammer being brought down on KU.

I am still waiting for UNC to get stripped of every win and accolade from during their decades-long cheating scandal, though. What can you do? The system is corrupt and so are the programs.

Juwan Howard landed his first five-star prospect at Michigan on Thursday night, as top-10 forward Isaiah Todd chose the Wolverines over Kansas. Todd took official visits to both schools in recent weeks, and also took multiple unofficial visits to North Carolina over the past couple of months. 10-17-2019
