professor Did you see his fall? People in the crowd could hear his head slamming against the floor. There is absolutely no way he wasn't concussed.

Not saying that is the reason Duke lost the game, but the coach should absolutely have had somebody else inbounding the ball.

    Honestly, don’t recall seeing/hearing that one. Thought the reference was to the elbow to the ear. Regardless, am surprised the protocol wasn’t invoked - your saying the impact was audible over the crowd.

      professor Yes. It was on a drive to the basket. He got slammed into (no call), and fell onto his backside, with his head then slamming into the hardwood. A friend of mine who was there said that the loud sound was audible well up into the stands.

      professor Texas Tech's physical style of play bothered Florida a lot in the regional final, so I think the Gators really have their hands full in this one.

      I think Florida is learning that you can't bully Houston.

      Houston's offensive rebounding bails them out of some bad offense on some possessions.

      Ted Cruz strikes again.

      Geez, they should have just thrown something up there and gone for the rebound. Not even getting a shot off. Wow.

      I thought the game might be over when Houston was up by 12. I guess Florida was more battle tested in the SEC than Duke.

      What a tough way to end a game. Congrats to the Gators for playing some good defense.

      Tough loss after leading by 12 and pretty much shutting down Clayton all night.

      Pump fake, one dribble and shoot, ball game.

      When the bigs are over playing like that on D, the bigs on O need to flash to the rim for a pass and open layup.

      azgreg Here comes Florida.

      And that was the name of the game - and not just this time! Damn, their "no quit" was impressive.

      azgreg Is Houston allergic to the ball all of a sudden?

      Or, did Florida just crank up their own play another 'half a notch'? Sure did.
