Arizona State hired two former NBA coaches as a part of Herb Sendek's staff. Eric Musselman and Larry Greer.
 
UCLA's prized freshmen recruits of Shabazz Muhammad, Kyle Anderson and Tony Parker for alleged recruitment violations.
 
Jim Calhoun of UCONN will retire formally. Kevin Ollie will be the head coach.
 
James Young (Rochester, Mich.) chose Kentucky. Young is a top ten recruit from the class of 2013.
 
Louisville head coach Rick Pitino has agreed to a contract extension that will end in the 2021-2022 Season.
 
Kyle Anderson was cleared to play for UCLA. Bruins are still awaiting the decision by the NCAA for Muhammad.
 
I am looking forward to the game where Michigan State visiting the UCONN Huskies. This game pits the mastermind of the Spartans, Tom Izzo against UCONN's new coach, Kevin Ollie.

It will be interesting to see how the Spartans play minus Draymond Green, but they are a rugged and hungry team this season. As for the Huskies, I wonder on how much the back-court can carry them.
 
UCONN beats Michigan St. 66-62. It was a great game to watch for the college hoops opening. Shabazz Napier pouring it in. Though I was expecting more from Ryan Boatright.

Omar Calhoun played awful as a starter.
 
Baylor routs Lehigh 99-77. Freshman Isaiah Austin debuted with 22 points in 17 minutes before being shelved after a sprained ankle. Corey Jefferson took over and produced 26 points.
 
Defending NCAA Champions Kentucky survives a Maryland upset as the Wildcats won 72-69.

Canada's Kyle Wiltjer fired 19 points. Freshman Archie Goodwin with 16 points.

I got to see Nerlens Noel, rebounding and shot-blocking is his forte and can only get better as the season goes on. He looks very raw on the offense though.
 
Great game by Jack Cooley. 19 points and 17 rebounds for Notre Dame as they walloped Evansville 58-49.
 
James McAdoo will be fun to watch this season. The offense will have a large cut with him as he is expected to produce points, rebounds and blocks. Good for him and his draft aspirations.
 
Great game from the Duke - Kentucky match last night. Duke's experience triumphed over Kentucky's inexperienced. This is the Duke with the pedigree that we are used to seeing.
 
It took a superb effort from Deshaun Thomas for Ohio St. to stave off a winless but hungry Rhode Island. Thomas with 25 points and 10 rebounds as the Buckeyes beat Rhode Island 69-58.
 
LeBryan Nash and his unranked Oklahoma State routs North Carolina State 76-56. Nash scored 23 points while teammate Marcus Smart had great all around game of 20 points, 7 assists and 7 rebounds. NC State got blindsided in Puerto Rico.
