No great teams, the way there used to be. North Carolina is very, very good, but not great -- heck, they lost to Boston College. I'd still say they're the team to beat, though.<BR/><BR/>That said, because college hoops are down, I say that's one reason why UConn still has a chance without Dyson. I'm in the minority on this. But last I checked, Hasheem Thabeet and Jeff Adrien were still healthy. If A.J. Price can step up his game to last year's level (something he hasn't quite done this season for any long stretch), and if Stanley Robinson can finally come alive (we're running out of patience on that one), then UConn can still make a lot of noice in March.David Borgeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18076952029033761095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35545669.post-51869165428253633322009-02-15T13:41:00.000-05:002009-02-15T13:41:00.000-05:00Dave another serious question, Is College basketba...Dave another serious question, Is College basketball in a down year this year or is Uconn really that good of a team? I mean none of the top teams really seem like they are terribly great. UNC went down a couple times, Oklahoma hasnt played any top 25 teams (Ok maybe Texas), What hurts the most with the Dyson injury is that we could for sure win the whole thing with the way we were playing, granted not every game with him was pretty butAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35545669.post-76517804083342494162009-02-15T12:04:00.000-05:002009-02-15T12:04:00.000-05:00That was one of the greatest press conferences in ...That was one of the greatest press conferences in the history of college basketball.
