The Cougars are coming alive after a slow start, and they have been aided by a talented guard who is close to home and with a better fit. Plus a reprimand from a league office, a new Volunteer in town, and a Seahawk is going home.

The Morning Dish – Monday, December 23, 2019
It doesn’t happen often, but a visiting team won in John Paul Jones Arena, and they now will be interesting to track from an NCAA Tournament perspective. Plus the Diamond Head Classic gets underway and ends with a good one, and the Lobos will be down two starters for the time being.
The Morning Dish – Sunday, December 22, 2019
Another team atop the polls went down on Saturday, continuing the wild season we have had with conference play still mostly to come. Plus the Jayhawks lose more than a game and the Volunteers lose a key player who was no small part of their recent rise on a very busy Saturday.
The Morning Dish – Saturday, December 21, 2019
Marquette got all they could handle for a while, before their best player took over and got some help along the way. Plus one guy comes through twice in a double overtime game, a few other results of note, and a program goes on probation.
The Morning Dish – Friday, December 20, 2019
A little surprisingly, a big man has decided to abruptly move on and prepare for his future outside of college, but there is likely to be a lasting impact of some sort. Plus a Spartan won’t play this year, a big win in Newark, and some Tigers continue lead the way in the SEC.
The Morning Dish – Thursday, December 19, 2019
Let’s give Gonzaga credit while talking about North Carolina’s concerns, because the Tar Heels lost to a really good team. Plus a tough night for the SEC, another tripleheader of action, and the leader of the pack wonders why so few people trust his organization.
The Morning Dish – Wednesday, December 18, 2019
Two out of three wasn’t bad in Brooklyn, with a game that wasn’t competitive sandwiched between two good ones. Plus the Tar Heels face a major challenge due to a key injury and a Pirate may not return to action so fast this time.
The Morning Dish – Tuesday, December 17, 2019
The NET rankings are out for the first time this season, and there’s a lot that we digest for now with much more to come. Plus the only ranked team in action rallies to win, a light night of game action, and just as a Valley team was playing well with three big blowouts, a key injury hits.
The Morning Dish – Monday, December 16, 2019
There might not have been many games on the schedule for Sunday, but it was quite a day with some big results. Plus a second home loss for one team, a few other games stand out, and a coach wasn’t able to go on Saturday.
The Morning Dish – Sunday, December 15, 2019
College basketball finally didn’t have to compete with football, and it was quite a day of games. But the Pirates may have lost a star for a bit, and rivalry game’s future seems uncertain.
