Even though we post here every day about college basketball news, rumors and upcoming games, you will always want to hear what Dick Vitale has to say. He posts “Roundball Chatter” every Friday, and today was one you should really check out. He starts off by addressing the NBA ref scandal, which has been on the minds of everybody in the sports world. Like a true basketball lover and hopeless romantic, DV contends that Donaghy is an isolated case, and that “99.9%” of refs to a “super, super job.” While I would love to have his kind of blind faith and loyalty, I am pretty sure that those stats aren’t accurate. You’ve got to love his enthusiasm, though.
There’s some good stuff about some of the upcoming games this season, including a deal where Michigan State and Texas agreed to play each other for four consecutive years. Those should be fun to watch. He even waited to plug his own tournament, the Dickie V Classic at Madison Square Garden, until part way down the page. It should be a good one, though, with USC battling Memphis.
