Quickie Recap 12.2: Jack McClinton has to slap Buckeye?


In a game that showed how reliant Miami is on their standout Jack McClinton, the Hurricanes blew a 14 point lead after "Apples" slapped Ohio State's Anthony Crater about midway through the first half. Great audition tape for the Real World (see Jack's Profile from Siena days). Ohio State, who really isn't that good, dictated the pace of the game and chipped away at the Hurricanes, turned tropical depression, to get the mild upset W.

Steve Lavin made the whole situation sound cool and unfortunately Nick missed it, instead electing to watch the beginning of the end of Will Ferrell's movie career. Anyways we'll wait to see if McClinton is reprimanded further, aside from the predictable bashing he'll hear from ACC crowds.

In the night cap, Purdue students slept in the cold for two nights just to see their boys play 40 minutes of fairly uninspired basketball, losing 76- 60. The Boilermakers are clearly talented but are going to have to learn, on-the-fly, how to win big games after missed opportunities against Oklahoma and now the Dukies. The Blue Devils got 20 each out of Kyle Singler and Jon Scheyer.

Notre Dame has announced that Mike Brey will be the offensive coordinator for the football team...well no, but it's not a terrible The Irish basketball team rained triples all over South Dakota. They were without the services of Luke Harangody (pneumonia), but that had zero bearing on the outcome. Ryan Ayers and Kyle McAlareny were the key culprits responsible for the team's 37 three point attempts. Usually that's enough to make a coach cringe, but when you hit a school record 19, apparently you just keep telling 'em to fire away.
