CollegeHoops.net Player of the Week: Jonny Flynn
Thanksgiving week is always a hotbed
for college basketball -- holiday tournaments and invitationals are a nice
reprise for people who don't want to watch riveting NFL blowouts on Thanksgiving
or overhyped college football games on Saturday. Plus, there's really nothing
better than eating leftovers, laying on the couch and watching some college
hoops. As a result of all the top-notch match-ups, there were plenty of
outstanding individual performances this week.

3 - Damion James (Texas) is up there right now for the Least-Improved Player award.

College Football: Saturday Touchdowns
Heading into this Saturday it seemed like the Notre Dame Fighting Irish were well on their way to a seventh victory and a berth in either the Gator or Sun Bowl. All they had to do was beat Syracuse, playing for a recently dismissed head coach in Greg Robinson and dead last in the Big East. But while the Orange haven't played particularly well this season, you can't accuse this team of quitting. What ensued was one of the more stunning results of the day, with Syracuse stunning the Irish 24-23 on a late touchdown pass. Where do the Irish go from here?
Big East Coach Ranking: Sweet Sixteen
The 2008-09 Big East season should bring as much excitement as any. Commonly regarded as the toughest conference in college basketball, it has the potential to put 9+ teams into the NCAA tournament come March.
At the backbone of a great team comes a great coach, and the Big East has plenty of great coaches. But which coaches are the best? Let's just say that a well-padded résumé is not enough to give a coach top honors in this conference.
