I was at that game in Birmingham. The controversial play involved Brett Smith and unfortunately I could not see the play from where I was. CDEB was sitting a few rows behind me and I think he was able to see it. I really did not know what happened until I saw the replay.Quote:

Not if your goal is to build a basketball program.Quote:

We learned that being rated better doesn’t get you a home game in the NIT. Just remember LilWillyQuote:

That loss to CCU....ugh. Don't think it would of moved the needle out the 80's but is a quad 4 loss. We're on an 8 game roll, all conference games, and look where we are. Golly. We on the outside of 98 (NCAA/NIT count) presently, and not accounting for auto bids ranked lower than UL.Quote:

MWC 5
PAC12 2
SEC 7
WCC 2
All you others 1 each
How far the PAC12 has fallen. It looks more and more each day they will be the odd man out when the P5 shuffles to 64 teams. Other than folks in the PST zone, who gives a flip? When polls show half of Californians want to move away, the PAC12 is on death watch.
Big 10 is an absolute joke with that number. They are down this year.Quote:

Nope. That would be impossible. The Big 12 currently only has 10 teams. That same day 4 SEC teams played each other. Vandy played A&M and South Carolina played Georgia.Quote:

You can’t point out someone’s error than make a glaring one of your own.Quote:

I'm pretty sure neither the RCAF or the University can pay NIL . . . if no one wants to play in our gym, you can't make them come . . . much ado about nothing . . . enjoy the ride, its much more fun . . .
Why don’t you sit this one out buddy?Quote:
