After four seasons, it is time to call it quits. What started as just a side project for my own satisfaction grew into a pretty respectable site with followers from around the world (seriously, M...
We lose the winningest senior class in program history, but a lot of talent returns to propel the program forward to a new decade under Mike Brey. Obviously Luke Harangody's contributions will be...
What an up-and-down year it's been. After an 11-2 nonconference record against the one of the easiest schedules in the country, the Irish caught some national headlines with a 70-68 home win agai...

Irish let a nine-point lead slip away and fall in the first round with some bad shot selection against a second-half Monarch zone. ND attempted three-pointers on nine of its last eleven possessi...

Arkansas-Pine Bluff/Winthrop grudgematch tonight. Winner takes on Duke. Also, an announcement. After four years, I will be relinquishing control of the blog at the end of the season. It's been a...
Remember this post from last week? Here are Matt's responses to the same questions: 1. There have been multiple nationally televised Big East conference games where the lower bowl of the student...

It feels a lot better to be talking about a tough first-round matchup than another year in the NIT, especially considering how this season started. ESPN's Bracketologist Joe Lunardi pegged the I...

Irish land a 6 seed. Old Dominion is a very talented first round opponent, but it is hard not to see this as a best case scenario for a potential run. We avoid the 8/9 game and could take on a pr...

Pregame: test 7:34- Gtown up 26-21. Two Catholic schools, so it's a bit tough to decide who to cheer for. 8:02- 37-34 Gtown at the half. I've decided to cheer against the Hoyas now. Personal re...

So here's the deal. I will be without internet from tomorrow morning to Sunday night. I did not predict that this would be an issue at all when the trip was planned. I will do my very best to fig...
Somehow, this team just keeps getting it done. The Irish controlled the pace once again and will play in the Big East semis tomorrow. Hopefully this will help us avoid that dreaded 8/9 game in th...

Fantastic win. The Irish are really rolling right now. Give Coach Brey some credit for how he has reorganized this team. Bilas and Raftery talked about the slow-down offense all game. It has im...

As Mike Brey has wanted all season, the Irish are officially "in the conversation" for the NCAA Tournament. Riding high after a four-game winning streak, that conversation has shifted somewhat to...

Congrats to Luke Harangody for making first team All-Conference and Tim Abromaitis for making Honorable Mention.
Irish cap off the season on a four game winning streak with an incredible come-from-behind performance. Down seven with a minute to go, a pair of Ty Nash free throws and two clutch threes sent th...

I didn't think we'd need this, but all of a sudden it's time to start watching the bubble. The Bracket Project lists the Irish as a twelve-seed, just a couple steps down from the vanquished Hus...

Huge win. It was an ugly one, but the Irish took one step closer to a possible NCAA bid and, perhaps more importantly, eliminated the Huskies from Tournament contention. ND has moved into a tie f...

WHO ARE THESE GUYS? The Irish used some great ball movement and high-intensity defense to grind away at the Hoyas on the road. This was exactly what you want to see from a team on the ropes: uns...
