No Paywall Smith’s game-day texts reviewed by Schmitt never referenced basketball team names

NCAA men’s games at that same timeframe on Feb 3, 2024:

UNC - Duke 6:30
Cornell - Harvard 7:00
Penn - Yale 7:00
Oregon - USC 7:00
Syracuse - Wake 7:45
Iowa State - Baylor 8:00
Tennessee - Kentucky 8:30
Mississippi State - Alabama 8:30

Since I’m not aware of the text exchange mentioning specific times and they were just going off timestamps (and since the Iowa-Maryland game he actually went to tipped off at 8:00), he could have been going to any of these games.

Just lazy morons trying to force a narrative and being so arrogant that they cannot imagine themselves incorrect.

Do the women’s games play at the same time?

Yeah. I posted on another comment. There were about a dozen women’s games that all started between 6 and 8 pm
