Charlotte has “released Mark Price from his contract” as men’s basketball coach effective immediately. The 49ers were off to a 3-6 start. Houston Fancher will be the interim coach.

Mark Price told ESPN that he was shocked by Charlotte AD Judy Rose’s decision to let him go just nine games into his third season as head coach.

Wichita State coach Gregg Marshall said that Markis McDuffie, who has been out all season, ran on the court for the first time the other day. Optimistic return is around Christmas.

Best homecourt advantage in college hoops over last five years? Kansas is 85-5 (94 percent), Arizona is 86-4 (95 percent), and Stephen F. Austin is 78-3 (96 percent). Kyle Keller has Lumberjacks at 9-1 this season.

Huge win for @OU_MBBall. Its first ever against an AP top-3 team away from home when unranked itself. To best of my knowledge, only second win vs. top-3 team away from home period (1990 over Kansas in Big Eight Tourney).

Remember when people said Kentucky couldn't shoot? Cats are shooting 37.1% from 3. Biggest surprise? Hamidou Diallo is at 38.5%. No longer just an athlete.

@JonRothstein

Unique nugget about Miami: Canes are an offensive team w-o an efficient offensive PG. Sharing is caring. 38.6% from 3. Four players who make decisions with the ball.

@JonRothstein

Villanova's top five scorers are shooting between 39.5 and 53.5 percent from 3-point range. How do you prepare to stop the Cats? Anyone can be the assassin.

Silvio De Sousa is gift from heaven for Jayhawks. Better than his rankings, great kid & massive athleticism & strength. @KUHoops offense not hard to pick up. But hard to walk in off street.

Kansas hopeful Silvio De Sousa can play in Big 12 opener, but still needs to finish academic requirements and then be cleared by NCAA. Billy Preston situation still up in the air, source told ESPN.
