LEADERBOARD


TOURNAMENT


Here are the results from week #13 games (semis). There were a few posters with one incorrect pick, but the one that made the best of it and had the least amount of points missed was Batman40, he collected 153500 out of a possible 176000 points for the week. It helped move him up but takeurbase had another solid week missing only but more points and remained in the overall lead with 674400 points, has a 21000 point lead going into the finals.

The 2017 bracket was much easier this week as Tigersbasketball defeated PB&Jelly 151000 – 111000 and RLE2105 defeated LoboAlum 128500 – 111000 and moved on to the finals with TigersBasketball facing RLE2105. They are close to the overall challenge but TGBB has the lead and will they be conservative in their picks this week or go for it?

Daily Dimes - Tuesday, November 28th

What you need to know for Tuesday, November 28th in New Mexico High School basketball.

As the season progresses we will release weekly rankings, Rivals/NMPreps Mr. New Mexico candidates, playoff predictions, and many more features. Daily Dimes will be your quick view for the day.

Note: Today's Daily Dimes will not be posted to the front page due to football and the state championships.

STARTING LINE-UP: BEST FIVE GAMES TONIGHT

Albuquerque (1-0) at Rio Rancho (1-1): The matchup is normally a crowd pleaser and sort of this "rivalry" type of game. The first school in the Duke City vs the first school from the City of Vision. The head coaches Wally Salata (RR) and Ron Garcia (AHS) have the family history. Also, this contest highlights two Division-1 prospects in David Patterson (Air Force Academy/Mountain West) and Marlon Cunningham (New Mexico/Mountain West).

Atrisco Heritage (0-1) at Eldorado (1-0): Atrisco Heritage quickly had the followers name them as the favorite, they fell last week in a close but solid game against the 6A champion Volcano Vista Hawks. Do they rebound against another team looking for a peak year in Eldorado which features a few prospects on the rise? All eyes are on Kameron Valencia (Eldorado) along with big man Jordan Arroyo from Atrisco. The start of a slate of quality games this coming season in 6A basketball.

Hope Christian (0-0) at Valley (1-0): The Valley Vikings enter the season with little hype when they have a stellar guard that could be the top overall player when the season ends. He - Anthony Chavez - opened the season with a 30-point performance against Cibola last week in a win. However, we all know the test - some sort of test - comes when you face the 4A power in Hope Christian. They have continued to rule New Mexico. Does that power stay on opening night for the Huskies?

Los Lunas (1-0) at Kirtland Central (0-0): Two favorites in 5A basketball will square off in the four corners Tuesday night. Los Lunas brings the defense while Kirtland the up-tempo style. This could be one of the best KC teams, Los Lunas looking to return to the top of the classification. Bryson Dowdy for KC and Zanen Zeller for Los Lunas but both programs have a handful of x-factors that will be on the stat line.

Tularosa (0-0) at NMMI (1-0): When we dip into small school basketball the match up between southeast members brings an intrigue as Tularosa looks to build off a 17-12 season but will be young. NMMI hired longtime coach Sean Schooley who once coaches the Colts from 1992-1995 and provided a winning program during those years going 50-29.

1. Bret Bielema - Arkansas
2. David Beaty - Kansas
3. Mike Riley - Nebraska
4. Barry Odom, Missouri
5. Mark Whipple, UMass
6. Brad Lambert - Charlotte

9. Jim Mora - UCLA
10. Todd Graham - Arizona St.
11. Steve Addazio - Boston College
12. Kalani Sitake - BYU

Can they rebound from this season?

Collin Justiss resigned from Valencia High School. He coached Capitan into the state finals, and won a title at Clayton. But it didn't work out at Valencia. He resigned today.

Open for one week before we select five candidates that we will vote on. Today, this is our list before we narrow it down to five.

Thanks to the coaches who have reached out to us! Great feedback this year from coaches.

Winner will be announced starting December 4th.

Crazy story going on here with the hire then quick backpedal by Tennessee..

they are 2-4 after going 0-3 in the recent holiday classic.

Will they get to .500?

Known last season for the “data” scene.. but Memphis continues to fire head coaches regardless of how good or bad the team does. They’ve let go of some good coaches. True Memphis is on an 8 game skid but they did well last season and they’ve reset the roster

Please post stats, top plays and overall performances from the senifinals

Ceremonial ribbon cutting on Wednesday Nov. 22 at 3:30, featuring Alex Bregman.

More Likely you watch a game live than online/radio

What game?

What do your weekly rankings look like after three weeks?

Chip Kelly to be introduced tomorrow, Friday, as the new head coach at Florida.

Never mind. I went to go get the link to Bleacher Report and they pulled the story. Said he was going to make $6 Mil per year. Hard to believe. That's why i never liked Bleacher report. Still don't. They started off like a tabloid and didn't check their stories for accuracy. Seems this one got away from them and then they noticed and took it down.
