It’s been pretty bad. The top is ok, but the middle and bottom are putrid.

I think app and JMU are better this year than UL and usm were last year. I think Troy and the Cajuns this year are comparable to Marshall and JMU last year. A pretty mediocre south Al team made the finals last year and Texas state made the semis. I think overall at the top the play is as good as it’s been in a while.

I read an ESPN analysis stating JMU has an outside shot at an at large bid. I guess they are assuming App wins tournament. Interestingly App is not on the at large bubble despite beating JMU twice. I think both those teams are better than any of the teams in the league last season.

South Alabama was mediocre much of last season. However in Feb. and March they played better than anyone. Typical of Jags as they are a predominantly transfer school.
