It is that point of week once more the place we hand out grades and assess the report card for a few of faculty basketball’s greatest and worst groups for the week that was. Pull up a chair, children, class is in session.

I used to be a sort trainer this week as soon as once more, liberally handing out “A” grades to those that I really feel earned it. However similar to final week, I used to be additionally harsh to those that didn’t carry out effectively. These are grades you’ll not wish to present your dad and mom. I desire the time period “powerful love” to harsh, although. I am not mad; I am simply disenchanted is the vitality I am passing alongside right here. 

And the grades mirror that this week. There are many passing grades after large weeks — Saint Mary’s will get an A+ after holding serve at residence vs. Gonzaga, as does Arizona and VCU for its large weeks — however there are a handful that will not be as pleased with their grades after a down week. 

So let’s dive into the report card for this week. As at all times, consider the cycle runs Monday-Sunday.
