The Hoops HD Report – In-Season Tournament Special IT IS NOVEMBER MADNESS!!! Chad is joined by a full panel and they run through every single upcoming in-season tournament. The biggest event is the Players-Era Event that has multiple teams that are likely to end up not just in the NCAA Tournament, but end up with protected seeds. Other big events are the Maui Invitational, the Charleston Classic which features Clemson, Georgia, and West Virginia, the Battle 4 Atlantis where nearly all the teams are off to great starts, and much more.

Hoops HD Daily Rundown – Sunday, Nov 16th NEWS AND NOTES: -In Boston, UConn jumped out to a big early lead against BYU and appeared to be cruising, but the Cougars just kept chipping away, and chipping away, and chipping away. They it down to 2pts, but could not quite get completely over the top and the Huskies held on to win 86-84. It's hard to not be impressed with BYU despite the loss.

Hanging with the Hoyas: Part 2 HoopsHD’s Jon Teitel will spend the upcoming months covering several Georgetown basketball home games, with (hopefully) a very special reward coming in March. He was in attendance Saturday afternoon for the Hoyas’ game at Capital 1 Arena and prepared this photo essay about their matchup against Clemson. My pregame birthday lunch was...underwhelming: lukewarm chicken strips/fries/toast from Raising Cane's. The biggest non-conference home game in 2 years = the biggest flag they could find for the national anthem:

Hoops HD Daily Rundown – Saturday, Nov 15th NEWS AND NOTES: -Arizona now has two major wins on their profile and the season isn't even two full weeks old. They knocked off UCLA in an exciting 69-65 game that was close all throughout. It was UCLA's first real test, and while they didn't win it, and while it can take some time for the bad taste of a hard fought loss to a rival to wash out of your mouth, I think the Bruins are going to be fine.

Hoops HD Daily Rundown – Friday, Nov 14th NEWS AND NOTES: -Just this past Saturday Alabama won at Saint John's. I said at the time that would likely be one of the more impressive singular wins any team manages this season given how good the Johnnies were and how they may not lose at home again for the rest of the year. Last night, we saw an even bigger singular win as Purdue went into Alabama and came out with a massive, almost assuredly upper-quad-1 level 87-80 win.

We recap a very busy first week and discuss some of the teams that have surprised us so far like Stephen F Austin from the Southland (which was our first featured conference of the season), NJIT who's managed a couple of road wins, and UT Martin who has looked good out of the OVC.

Hoops HD Daily Rundown – Wednesday, Nov 12th NEWS AND NOTES: -We will be recording this week's Under the Radar Video Podcast tonight, so keep an eye out for that. -Louisvlle vs Kentucky was a high energy, high intensity affair where Louisville pretty much had a lead from tip to buzzer and got up by as much as 20 in the second half. Kentucky kept hitting shots and got as close as 4, but Louisville held on for the 96-88 win.

The Olympians: HoopsHD interviews Kevin Danna about 2-time Olympic gold medalist Draymond Green The NBA Finals date back to 1947 (when they were known as the Basketball Association of America Finals) and the very 1st NCAA tourney was held in 1939. Olympic basketball competition is even older: it debuted as a demonstration event in 1904, and the men’s version became a medal sport in 1936, with the women finally getting their chance to go for the gold in 1976.

Hoops HD Daily Rundown – Sunday, Nov 9th NEWS AND NOTES: -Alabama got a massive win at Saint John's yesterday 103-96. Saint John's is currently ranked 5th in the nation and believed by pretty much everyone to be a protected seed caliber team. For Bama to get a road win of that caliber is huge for their resume.
