Good: - House played very hard on both ends of the court. Good attitude. Could tell he really wanted this game. 8-12 FG for 18P - Green solid went for 14P all in the 2nd half. Green picked up 2 fouls in 1st half and Miller sat him rest of half. Only played a total of 24 minutes - Weston was assigned...

4 Teams will play their 1st game Thursday in the Quarterfinals Some very close point spread Last year the Top 4 Seeds all won and moved on to the Semi-Finals on Saturday.

Don’t think the committee is “licking its chops” thinking they need that matchup though. It’s not like they need those two teams playing to stir up interest. Won’t move the needle.

Great game. Came down to the last shot and LaSalle just missed a 3P

You read into things way way too much man. Weren’t you also the one who said Mike Layssard should play because he dunks hard in warm ups? How’s your George Washington doing in the Tournament? Ah so you did say Layssard should play more because of his warm up dunks. Thought so. No idea on Layssard. ...

Fordham vs VCU was a good game to the last minute

Frank Martin and his team are here watching 5-seed VCU vs 12-Seed Fordham as UMass plays the winner Thursday at 2pm

VCU pulls it out. Good DT shooting by VCU In final minutes contributed to the win.

Wagner just won the NEC and is headed to the NCAAT, presumably as a 16 seed that will play in the first four. I guess the only silver lining from this season is that URI defeated one NCAAT team ... safe to count this as progress? Actually kind of funny - for all the complaining about how "soft...

208, what do you think about losing Saquon to the Eagles? They should have paid him and tagged Jones instead. Bad move. At least they've made a few moves since which should help.

9 A10 Teams with NET between 68 and 108 The power conferences and their allies that run the NCAA must be very pleased that their secretive NET ranking system is working exactly as they intended.

I hate this idea. We, and the people we have running URI, should be able to walk and chew gum at the same time. Nobody is saying the A10 is a bigger problem than our own program, but we ignore the bigger picture at our own peril. Contrary to what someone said before you, the Atlantic 10 objectively...

It is not really people saying that URI should drop down. It is people saying that the A-10 is already in decline and would suffer a massive fall if teams such as Dayton and VCU went elsewhere in the future. In that scenario the A-10 would effectively be dropping down to the level of other conferen...
