My point wasn’t about VCU specifically. Lunardi just chose them because they were in first place that particular day, probably due to a tiebreaker. Substitute St Louis or Dayton. It doesn’t matter right now, unless one of these three starts rolling all its remaining opponents. Sadly, a 12 seed is p...

Maybe it's not worth it? Maybe a person doing beers sells 20 beers an hour, (probably realistic from what I've seen) and URI gets 50 cents each. So they get $10 an hour per beer pourer can hander ....they probably have to pay the beer hander $15.... On the other hand, if it's possible to more slowly...

Good point. I had the older version of the A10 in my head, not the A10 of the past 2 1/2 years. The fact that Long could play in the current A10 may say more about the league than about him. I know league strength runs in cycles and the hiring of name coaches at several schools can help, but I wond...

You know it’s a bad season for Rhody when it’s game day, we are playing Dayton (one of the top teams in the conf again) at home and KB is temporarily obsessed with a thread like this. Ooph.

I liked Mekhi’s game. Old Dominion has a good coach and is in a good league. I’m surprised by the 19 rebounds, but who wouldn’t be. I’m not so sure his talent wouldn’t translate well to the A-10. The A-10 isn’t a top 10 conference anymore. Good point. I had the older version of the A10 in my head, ...

Wonder what happened with Tchikou bc Archie only used him when he had no other option. He had a block and dunk (as well as a turnover and dumb foul) in a really short shift. Maybe it was just matchups but he started the game before so it was odd. I think one of the announcers (Steve, maybe?) mentio...

I'm sure it will be. Gillette Stadium is not just used for Pats games. The Ryan Center is not just used for men and women's basketball games.

Students as a whole should be ashamed of themselves. Just my take on an otherwise great afternoon. I'd like to know the actual number of students that attended.
