Basketball Dots
- For whatever reason, the Huskies seem to have problems with Oregon State on the court. The first round probably keeps the Dawgs out of the NCAA Tournament, writes Percy Allen.
- There are still holes to fill offensively, but pretty much everyone comes back next year. Including Jaylen Nowell who will look to build on his strong freshman season. Also, if anyone wants to explain what an ORtg is, that would be cool.
Forgive me as I scour KenPom in the wake of tonight's loss.

Jaylen is 1 of 6 freshmen in the top 7 conferences to post an ORtg >100 with a usage rate >26% of possessions. Impressive company:
Marvin Bagley
Trae Young
Tremont Waters
Collin Sexton
McKinley Wright
Jaylen Nowell
- This ought to make many feel vindicated. Pac-12 refs do, in fact, call more fouls.
- Maybe former DB Tre Watson can find some NCAA loophole and help protect the rim for the Huskies next year:
