I was only able to watch first halves of Umass/Memphis and NJIT/Penn St before going to bed. Stupid job.

I think you can contribute some of that sloppy play to the fact that they were playing at freakin midnight when they probably had classes most of the day LOL. Still had 17,000+ in attendance though, not to shabby for a midnight game during the week.

Memphis wins Game One of the basketball fest 80-58. It was closer then the final score shows, Memphis is really athletic but their shot selection was terrible and they really struggled to shoot the three, at one point late in the second half they were 2-17.

Ya, I'm gonna go with Memphis being one of the most fundementally unsound teams in Major College Basketball. They get by on their supreme athleticism. The fact that it was after midnight had nothing to do with them jacking up poor shots from all over the floor. If it would have been 7:00 at night or high noon they would have been doing the same thing. It's Memphis, that's how they play.

Thus why everyone thought Calipari was suited to coach pro basketball because really, what coaching does he do anyways?

These guys are already making more money than he does
