Thanks Spooky...one question - it appears the math isn't working out in the Historical:

Historical
Series: 19-25
H: 21-11, A: 19-19, N: 1-1

The H/A/N would add up to a Series being 41-31.

It was my understanding that there would be no math....

The best move would be to allow football to do it's own then and the other sports stay alone. That way football can bloat itself all it wants without ruining college hoops.

we're now streaking in the wrong direction. Make it stop!

For the people that want Duquense, LaSalle, and Fordham out of the A10 as they are a liability to the strength of schedule and overall quality of conference play, where would you want them to be placed in? I really don't think the American East is an option since they are not actively engaged in ex...

One game at a time....one game at a time.

steviep123

The Big East was never going to merge with the A10 and take in programs like Lasalle , Fordham and Georgia Washington. Much easier to just take the few programs they needed. And that is exactly what it did. The original Big East Catholic-7 would never have broken off from the league had they not be...

steviep123

I never said it was plausible or going to happen. I simply wrote that Jon Rothstein tweeted that the A10 should offer the 7 BE schools to join. I'll dig up the tweet if I find time.

steviep123

Getting legitimately mad about stuff you 100% make up in your own head is, uh, very weird. But that’s just me. I think it's more about getting mad about the leadership of the conference not being able to have identified that opportunity when it was clearly evident. I don't have the time or energy t...

I don’t miss that game. Top 5 worst feeling walking out of RC. BAR, was that the game where if they won they were in and if they lost they were out? I remember that game. People just sat in their chairs and didn't move when it was over. It was like a wake and a funeral all at one time. It definitel...

Kind of..um..aggressive. As someone not in advertising who travels a lot for work, yeah I see that Friartown sign at the airport a lot. It gives off the vibe that they are all that people care about in the state. I never check a bag, I'm usually just getting out of there to my car as fast as possib...

Nobody gets the "everyone is in a bad mood so the advertising doesn't work" comment...it's right up there with 72s Jimmy Baron free throw advice as one for the ages. I said that people are in a bad mood in traffic on 95, I said that no one is paying attention at the baggage claim in the a...

Pleasantly surprised by the win. I was unable to watch, but did keep an eye on the score and will watch a recording later.

Truth be told I haven't paid much attention to other teams and while I think we should beat Davidson, UMass might be tough. Seems Martin has them further along (in theory) right now. But I don't know enough about UMass to say if they are a real decent team or a paper tiger. I'll go with we should be...

From Dana O'neil article In September, The Messenger reported that Fox was negotiating a new postseason tournament to be played in Las Vegas involving teams strictly from the Power 6 conferences (ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, Big East, SEC and Pac-12). The catch in that proposal: The top two teams from eac...

I'm a Packers fan and while I'm not that mad at that loss mainly b/c the Packers played like dog cr@p and really didn't deserve to win - that gift fumble late gave them the lead or it would have been at least 24-16 (probably 27-16) GMen with a few to play and I had no confidence that GB could march ...

steviep123

Poor FT shooting is only one of the problems here. Sure if we made more last night we win, but still would be a hollow victory imo. Lousy rebounding and defense Not getting better, maybe even worse. The 2 big system isnt working, it bogs down the offense, no fluidity. A multitude of issues. I put t...

steviep123

There's no other way to slice it. Losing to Brown is never a good loss and 3 in a row? That hasn't happened in like 50ish years. It's clear they are talented enough to win these games and while I fully admit I wasn't able to watch, from what I'm reading it seems like they essentially slept walked th...

I was able to watch the game after all (on delay - I started watching from the beginning at halftime). In all honesty, they played better than I expected and I expected a blowout. After all these years, I think we should always expect the unexpected. A lot of promise was shown. The game was closer t...

Does Mohegan still have the boards on the end zones? They did last time I was there and no center jumbotron. Of course that was for a concert several years ago and not a game.

steviep123

When the Ryan Center first opened I did like the idea of the scoreboards in the corners in theory (if it was done right). The big one was good but couldn't be seen by everyone and the opposite one is partially blocked. If not having the right AV is keeping the RC from getting events, and making more...

Interesting that both VCU and Providence are also in the event (in the Mayan division with Wisconsin and SDSU). URI is in the Riveria division and will play 2 games there in a non tournament format (as best as I can tell).

I think Rothstein has his guys and his programs that he does this for. Miller he's had the same line since he was at Dayton. Same for Hurley back to Rhody days (not sure if at Wagner).

Usually the URI section is worse than any possible seat in the Ryan Center. This is a good one to be on the couch for.

"Providence quickly regrouped by signing George Mason’s head coach, Kim English. English is the youngest P5/BE coach at just 35 years old. The Friars are basically a glorified A-10 team as last season they had Ed Croswell & Clifton Moore from La Salle & Jared Byrnum from St. Joe’s. This...

D is tough to know as while the D did slack off later, it was with a large advantage. That does need to be addressed. For now, FT shooting and rebounding are bigger concerns.
