T&F: A-10 championship meet

Men were winners in the 3000 steeple, 110H, with second place in the shot, discus, javelin. Women were winners in the 10,000, 400H, HJ, with second i...

Effective field goal percentage is weighted for three pointers but also factors in two point FG percentage
I had always thought that the formula also accounted for FT%.
That might be Total Shooting Percentage

Re: Portal

I wonder how long we have to wait until athletes can transfer mid-season? Start well and get called up? Get hurt and get sent to the Big South on a rehab assignment? Sure. Why not? NCAA can't stop anything at this point. There’s an Alabama football player who has entered the portal 3 times since mi...

Re: Welcome Zach Laput!

Lots of rules have changed (or gone away?) since COVID and NIL. But you still only get 4 years of eligibility. It is just that 20-21 doesn’t count as using a year. If you were an Ivy or Bentley student and your school didn’t play at all that year you don’t get a fifth, even if others did. Maybe some...

Re: Welcome Zach Laput!

My understanding is that you get 4 years of eligibility, but 20-21 doesn’t count. So he gets to play 22, 23, 24, and next season, 25.

Re: Shooting data for season (by start year)

Not sure on distances but I believe the line moved after 07-08 and again (to the FIBA distance) after the year we played lipscomb in the NIT. I believe we Guinea pigged it in the NIT game.

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

What is the new rule? You can just enroll and take classes even if you are not pursuing a degree? I’m assuming these Ivy guys will graduate this spring. Did Foster get a degree from Davidson? Seemed like he could and I assumed he did. But transfers to Davidson after 3 college years are not somethin...

Re: Davidson's Best Basketball Teams

Here are the Massey ratings each year - pretty close. Massey's ratings show the A-10 champ teams a little higher than your list, with 2022 at 8th best, 2015 9th with a #49 ranking, and 2018 10th at #62. The 72-74 teams also fell in that #62 to #70 range. Here are my picks for the 10 best: Team Recor...

Re: In Game: at St. Joe's

Maybe someone with more direct experience with big sports boosters (stan?) can correct me, but my years of reading about them and now NIL donors indicates that a lot of their motivation is pretty simple: they want to be chatting with their pals and say "I gave $1 million so that Jimmy Joe would play...
