Monday Morning Dump

Today's the day we have all been waiting for. For the first time since Gordon Hayward's prayer came inches from being answered, there will be meaningful college hoops played tonight. Excited? I am.

- There guys are too: Jeff Eisenberg with 68 predictions for the upcoming season, Rush the Court breaks down ESPN's Full Court schedule, and Matt Norlander gives us a look at ESPN's broadcaster schedule.

- And make sure you check out college basketball confidential. Definitely worth the read.

- DePaul lost their exhibition game against D-II Lewis last night. And Xavier lost to Bellarmine. Ugh.

- Dayton's locker room had some stuff stolen from it this weekend.

- Isaiah Thomas got into a twitter spat with Jeff Goodman over the weekend. I don't blame him, either. Are people really not putting Thomas on the preseason first team all Pac-10?

- A little preseason bracketology anyone?

- Andy Glocker breaks down the best of the rest. Good list here. Also, make sure to check out Luke Winn's postcard from Temple and Andy Katz's break down of Minnesota.

- A couple recruiting notes -- Tyler Harris picked NC State, while Dai-Jon Parker is headed to Vanderbilt. And I haven't heard anything else about this, but apparently Cedrick McAfee has some recruiting issues?

- Tom Izzo had his contract extended.

- Oregon's new court is pretty ridiculous. I love it.


- Our first buzzer beater of the new year:

Go Bellarmine! The Knights have always had talent, but are a program on a big-time rise. As is, they are a de facto D-I team and could compete in the low-to-mid D-I conferences. I look forward to BU joining the OVC, Horizon League or some such when the NCAA's window for moving up opens next year.
