Threadageddon: Penn State vs. Notre Dame At The Garden
A little background to ease you into tonight's action, courtesy of the New York Times' Quad blog:
Battle’s younger brother Taran Buie, a junior at Bishop Maginn High School in Albany, is considered one of the top basketball prospects in his class. He has five programs at the top of his list: Penn State, Georgia Tech, Maryland, Notre Dame and Marquette. (Penn State and Notre Dame play on Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden.)
“Hopefully he comes in and some of his A.A.U. teammates come in,” Battle said. “And then I’ve started something.”
Buie could be one of the most highly regarded recruits to ever seriously consider Penn State in basketball, at least in recent memory.
Still, this isn't about Talor Battle -- he'll be around for two more years.
It's really all about this guy:
There can only be one.
Open threadiness begins now.

if nd’s hittin threes, press up on the guards and make harangody go to work.. if nd’s not hittin threes, double down on harangody and force their guards to find their stroke
either way, we gotta exploit them on d with our superior athleticism.. this team is just florida with a big bruiser (harangody) instead of a wiry slasher (calathes)

Anyone else noticing that the camera keeps zooming in and out constantly, and is totally herky-jerky? ESPN definitely must’ve sent their “B” tech crew.

So that would mean battle and his Brother would be there at the same time?

Hopefully, this time the younger brother wouldn’t hightail it to Arizona St. after the older brother graduates…
Penn Staters belong at Penn State. The problem with a lot of kids is they just don’t know they are Penn Staters yet.

i love how
the ND player positions himself behind the ref and then acts tough again, he’s real tough when someone’s there to break up the fight
Although I was at this game, I was blind drunk by that point and I have very little recollection after the DWill return.

Just hopped over to the ND blog. There is one comment in the open thread for the game.
and this …
It should be a really fast-moving, entertaining game, as neither team gets to the line very much and both shoot the three ball pretty well. The Irish are going to need to defend the three-point line well tonight, although I’m not sure who on the Nittany Lions is stopping Luke Harangody.
