Re: 2015 NIT 2nd Round: @ Stanford - Sunday 9:30pm ESPNU

If we win, we're playing the winner of the Vanderbilt/SD St. game. They are playing tomorrow. The game will most likely be played next Wednesday. We need those 2 days off, and one of those will be a travel day too. The Friday game winner will have 2 more days of rest than we will have. I guess that...

Re: 2015 NIT 2nd Round: @ Stanford - Sunday 9:30pm ESPNU

At least the game is at 930, so their bodies will feel like their playing a normal east coast game, which would be 630 due to the 3 hour time difference.

Also, does anyone know if we win, if our home game would be Tuesday or Wednesday?

Re: NIT Game 1, St. Patrick's Day vs Iona at 7 on ESPNU

Also, remember the NIT is putting in a 30 second shot clock, along with (I think) moving the 3 point line back to the FIBA length. Should be interesting to see how much this affects both teams.

Look at Furman who had less than 10 wins coming into their conference tourney, won 3 games in 3 days, and almost beat Wofford, the number 1 seed. I don't see fatigue as that big a factor for GW. I'm legit worried about this game.

Re: All Atlantic 10

EC deserved second team the more that I think about it, but I have a grip with Anthony over Hassan for first team.

Only thing I can think of, is that Anthony is a senior, Richmond has been red hot, and Hassan has two more years to make first team. Same thing with Weber as DPOY.

Re: All Atlantic 10

EC or Hassan HAS to be first team over Kendall Anthony, and normally, the best defensive player on the best defensive team, for the duration of conference play, gets the award. Therefore it should have been Hassan. Obviously if Weber played the whole year, that award would have belonged to him.
