Last year was such bs. Travesty.
If he was fouled during the shooting motion (a foul which he anticipated, which is why he shot it), and the shot went in, I don't understand how the ref can logically declare that it wasn't a shot.
Interesting that they were one of the four teams at Greenbriar and while we did not play them there, we play them later
The transitive property is not our friend. They beat South Carolina by 7 and Virginia by 7.
Our next game is a "neutral" game in Chicago against Oklahoma State. We had a "neutral" game in Chicago against Dayton the season we went to our first NCAA Tournament.
I pay a fair amount of attention to Butler as I go to 1/3 to 1/2 of their games. They were consistently picked bottom 1/3 for this season. They win some games and it seems like they are magically great.
Did she sleep at a Holiday Inn? where does this sage knowledge come from?
We are currently almost dead balls on tied with them in the KenPom. Another key OOC test... but we have equally big games with OK St and OSU first, to say nothing of an early chance to score a resume topping type win at Wisconsin. This season is going to be one battle after another.
She is going to be a rn with a masters degree. I told her I think nu will win by 2 points. But no, she never played basketball
Nurses are the unsung heroes of our healthcare system. I would recommend pursuing a career as a Nurse Practitioner or Nurse Anesthetist. They have rewarding careers and a family friendly lifestyle. Young nurses usually get terrible shifts that precludes a "normal lifestyle" It takes years to get seniority and day shifts. Many hospitals offer 3 x 12 hour shifts per week, that are another acceptable alternative.
Seems to me that a Nurse Anesthetist would be a great job as long as you don't mind starting pretty early in the morning. Don't they usually always work with he same Doctor? Or are they on a team that rotates.
There are usually multiple attending anesthesiologists in a hospital , that monitor the NPs.The ideal NP position is in a high volume outpatient surgery center. The patients are generally healthier and the hours are predictable 7AM to 5PM. - this allows for a reasonable social or family life
Congratulations Mick, glad her Masters is in Nursing not Basketball or Gambling.
She wants to teach young nurses the trade at a community college called Harper college in palatine. And yes, I think she will be very good at her job. Jfyi, my wife is a rn as well. And my sister in law was a nurse practitioner based out of clinic at walgreens during pandemic. Now she is at emergency room at local hospital
They aren’t very good. I’m a season ticket holder (wife was a butler cheerleader back in the day). They’re not very good at all. I’d be shocked if they are in the tourney field.
Not if we don't rebound better than we have been
This game is a ways out and it’s weird to me we’re discussing it so heavily with other big games in the meantime, but Butler is now ranked solidly ahead of NU in the KenPom - a nearly two point superiority - and is solidly favored with the game at home. They’re gonna be like 4.5 pt favorites if things don’t change, which they will.
Sure, I’m not disputing which team is better. I’m just saying that Butler isn’t a great team and I don’t think they’re going to make the tourney. Just throwing that out in the context of people treating them as a barometer game.
They’re probably one of like 5-6 Met barometer games before Jan 1, of which 2-3 we’ve already had
