As if the news needed to get any worse for the South Carolina men’s basketball team.
First Dominique Archie. Now Mike Holmes joins Archie on the “out indefinitely” list. And both starters are out for awhile.
Holmes sustained what the team is calling a “closed head injury with a facial fracture” over the weekend while back home [...]
Yes, I’ve heard the joke already: When are South Carolina and Georgia meeting for the ACC championship?
If ever we needed a reminder that the SEC is football and the ACC is, well, not football, we got it Saturday. The fact that the ACC’s supposed two best teams just got beat by a pair of middle-of-the-pack [...]
The SEC owes a huge thanks to Florida, which in one swoop gave its basketball fortunes a huge lift on Friday night.
Then again, the Gators can only do so much.
Remember how the SEC was ready to roar back in basketball this year, and show that last year was just an anomaly? Well, except for Florida’s [...]
Before we head off to cook some green bean casserole, let’s empty the notebook, so to speak, on some basketball stuff.
- Darrin Horn said Wednesday that Dominique Archie’s knee sprain was “severe.” That was the only thing the coach really added to his Monday statement about Archie’s status. The senior forward is still out “indefinitely.”
Horn [...]
Obviously, the news could have been much, much worse on Dominique Archie. Any time you hear “knee injury,” the fears are bad.
So it was good to hear that South Carolina’s senior forward – who was leading the team in scoring and rebounding through four games – only has a right knee sprain.
At the same time, [...]
A quick look at Miami, and how Sunday’s title game of the Charleston Classic might shake out.
The Hurricanes basically have a three-guard, two post lineup. Their big men – including Dwayne Collins, an honorable mention All-ACC pick last year – are going to play down low. Their guards are mostly going to be on the [...]
It’s really early – the season’s just over a week old – but here’s an interesting factoid:
The Big East, as I write this at 7:24 p.m., eastern time, on Friday night, is undefeated. So when South Florida takes the floor in a couple hours in the second round of the Charleston Classic, South Carolina has [...]
Charleston – Miami has just finished off UNC Wilmington, so that half of the winner’s bracket is now set up.
If South Carolina beats South Florida tonight, it will square off with Miami on Sunday at 6 p.m., give or take a few minutes.
If the Gamecocks fall, they will face UNC Wilmington on Sunday at 3 [...]
Charleston – Here are some thoughts on South Carolina’s next opponent in the Charleston Classic.
You hear South Florida, and don’t expect to hear many famous names. In fact the Bulls have them – literally. Junior forward Jarrid Famous, No. 31 in your scorebooks but No. 1 in your list of unusual last names.
There’s ex-Georgia star [...]
Charleston – How intimate a setting is this at the Charleston Classic?
I walk into Carolina First Arena – which includes John Kresse Court – and go to the will call window, asking where I can pick up my press credentials. The woman behind the window doesn’t know, and asks the woman next to her, who [...]
