If you see John's wife's brother today, tell him to have a good one. Also tell him Louisville is underrated, Missouri is mysterious, and tonight should be an amazing evening of hoops.

No labored and tendentious linking devices here, just good honest hoops insights. Virginia's under-hyped, the Big 12's over-balanced, and the Gonzaga-Saint Mary's game is finally here.

John's fact-checking preseason promotional claims, and he strongly urges the FTC to look into deceptive advertising run by NC State, UNLV, and San Diego State. That plus your weekly shot of Florida gazing in this week's Truths.

With all 11 Tuesday Truths conferences now represented, John says KU is still KU, Michigan's defense looks good enough, and Florida is still downright scary.

Florida has opened SEC play with some fairly ostentatious per-possession numbers, Arizona is excelling on offense, and Notre Dame is surprisingly bad on D. Tuesday Truths have arrived.

John has parsed the conference season's first per-possession performances, and he has superlatives to offer for Creighton's offense (insane), the Big Ten's overall strength (incredible), and USC's timing (interesting).

In a special double-issue of the Truths, John celebrates Tuesday a day early, presents the final per-possession numbers from the past season, and looks ahead to the conference tournaments and a certain big event beyond.

With just one week left in the regular season, John says Syracuse is radically different this year...even if they do play zone every year.

As March draws ever closer, John says more people would have a correct view of Carolina if not for a certain game-winning shot by a certain player from a certain opposing team.

This Valentine's Day there's nothing to love about misperceptions, and the per-possession numbers are telling John that Missouri, Kentucky, Memphis, and the entire Big Ten are all misunderstood.

In his latest portrait of per-possession tumult, John says Ohio State, Kentucky, and Syracuse are dominant. And so are Cleveland State and New Mexico. Who knew?

With all 14 conferences (finally) reporting, John looks at the per-possession numbers and says the ACC may not need to bring in Syracuse and Pitt to give North Carolina and Duke a challenge after all. It's already happening.

In his latest survey of the per-possession landscape, John keeps the focus on offense and finds Missouri mystical, Syracuse misunderstood, and Illinois misbehaving.

In his first look at 2012 per-possession happenings, John says Kansas is really good (even though they're less talented than ever), Pitt's really bad (even though their offensive rebounding's better than ever), and Georgia State is just plain scary on D.

The regular season's in the books, so this week the Truths arrive a day early. Did we finally get some clarity on a wild season? Well, yes (Big Ten, SEC) and no (ACC, Pac-10).

Notre Dame and Virginia Tech are scoring points, Gonzaga and UCLA are preventing points, and teams on the bubble are trying to earn some points. It's March, at last.
February 22, 2011
by John Gasaway
Over the past eight days Pitt, Ohio State, Texas, and Kansas all lost. Then again teams like Purdue, Duke (remember them?), and George Mason (ditto) are looking pretty robust. It's chaos, which must mean it's almost March.
February 15, 2011

March is in sight and it's time to be blunt. Georgetown and Wisconsin are both looking strong, but both face tough road tests this week. Meantime Kentucky's struggling on the road, the West Coast is struggling at home, and everyone's struggling to figure out Washington.
