Re: Up next: Siena

The guys who pitched tonight need to pitch on the weekends when the conference season starts.

Some of those guys pitched in our win against A&T.

School That's Never Won the ACC Tourney Wants Out

Clemson has sued the ACC in Pickens County, SC asking the Court to interpret the Grant of Rights the ACC signed in the 2010s and determine what is a reasonable amount for the Tigers to pay, if any, to depart the ACC. FSU sued the ACC earlier asking for similar relief. If FSU and Clemson can leave th...

Re: Portal

I wasn't assuming they'd turn into Grant. But if you get senior Rusty Reigel and senior Oskar Michelsen or Nathan Ekwu, that's still big. Nathan Ekwu was better as a freshman than a senior. He only played 13 games and less than 100 minutes as a senior. If he had stayed healthy and progressed from h...

Re: Davidson's Best 15 Players

Rodney Knowles played in the NBA and the ABA.

We have very few NBA and ABA players, so anyone who played in both leagues should make the top 15.

Re: Quadruple stupidity

Wofford, UNCG, and UNCA are decent programs in communities where Davidson has alumni and fans from Davidson/Charlotte can drive easily.

If Furman still played in Memorial Auditorium, I'd include them, too.

I concur with catnhat about UNCW and CofC.

Re: Postseason

St. Louis is 14-18 with a NET of 150.

Davidson's NET is 81, but the NCAA hasn't factored in our forfeits. Probably they don't want to reward the teams we forfeited to.

Re: 24-25 Roster

Coach Hussey was being let go, too, and Hussey had recruited him to Davidson. The decision to become an Independent rather than join the Big South was an odd decision when the Southern booted us. Chris Morris (Otter) had poisoned our relations with the Southern and the Colonial, but refused to push ...

Re: Bracketology

Xavier is 16-17. They're playing at Georgia, which finished 17-16. None of the A10 teams in the NIT is hosting a game. Richmond plays at VPI. High Point is playing in some Tournament, not the NIT, and might be hosting a game. WGHP had a tease about it, but I wasn't going to watch the rest of their n...

Re: Bracketology

4 A10 teams under the new selection process isn't bad.

Wake Forest is going as well. They're playing Appalachian at home Wednesday.

Pitt declined a NIT Invitation.

Re: Bracketology

The NCAA, which runs the NIT, trashed the rule that a regular season conference champion that was not selected to the NCAA Tournament would receive a bid to the NIT. This was done to allow more bids for Power Conference teams that failed to make the NCAA Tournament. They are going to invite Power Co...

Re: Other scores

The A10 always maximizes its bids by having a good regular season champion, like Davidson '22 or Dayton '24, lose in the tournament. In 2018, the A10 worked it out to get 3 bids by having Davidson win the Tournament by beating St. Bonaventure and Rhode Island. It helps that Joe Lunardi is an alum of...

Re: up next: at Tennessee Tech

The coaches could stand nearby with a radar gun.

What's the point of having guys who can throw 80-85, but can't throw a strike or avoid hitting a batter?

Bracketology has Dayton as an 8 seed. So does bracketmatrix. Duquesne would get a 12 or 13, VCU a 12.
i77 was saying Duquesne/VCU was an "either/or" choice of the winner. Not both.

I think.
