PORTAL and NIL absolutely destroyed the NCAA

destroyed it

what a shame

ElmCityRhody

oh joy

stay hungover.. thats a good idea also - altho wouldn't raise $ and tv$ for ncaa the ultimate goal would be to get more mid-major teams in .. like Rhody granted this would also allow for much more P5 teams get in.. but.. it also can help the a10 i think its nearly impossible with this landscape to ...

ECR and78, same here. This isnt fun anymore. Will always be a fan, but not worth the angst watching us suck every year. If this doesn't turn around in a couple of years max, I'm out. and let’s say our recruits stay and we are very good next year and finish in top 3 in conference Wvar happens next ?...

ElmCityRhody

PORTAL AND NIL killed college sports

How the eff can you get invested in a team

Fuck this shit

I’m about to bail if we lose our 2 recruits and wish you all the best

Been on this board Since the pro Jo days but who can deal w this crap year after year

ElmCityRhody

PC losing helps...

ElmCityRhody

32 teams / 16 games

4 brackets

4 "final 4 in"

it really is as simple as that and a no brainer

this allows all the top 64 teams and all the nit teams in the tourney

ElmCityRhody

HEAR HEAR

Love the new thread - can you delete my post in it and make it only read only ?… this was it’s just what you update it and it doesn’t have any other posts ..

Sorry for posting there

ElmCityRhody

Here is my too logical to be approved approach to tournament expansion... Conference tournament winners - auto-bid bye to second round Regular season conference winner - auto-bid but would play in 1st round Everyone else - at-large (play in 1st round) However it is done, the auto-bid teams are seed...

ElmCityRhody

this is terrific, TY

ElmCityRhody

Weston leaving is really not a shock to the team. We lose about 5 pts a game. Not a big hill to climb. And about the only guy who played defense. Next year should be fun :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: honestly who needs this shit.. every year you root for players that leave.. at what point do ...

ElmCityRhody

I like the concept thanks - i think its a great concept that helps mid-majors and also P5.. and will bring in quite a buzz for the NCAA and $$$ and remove the NIT you can always give MSG the east bracket games if they are upset about losiing the NIT final 4 they can market this mini tourney awesome...

i don't know how we compete NET ratings w/ teams form the P5

I mean, the johnnies didnt get in.. and they def pass the "look test"

take a look at my proposed last 4 in tourney thread

its a win all around

ElmCityRhody

the field needs to expand drastically w our crap ass OOC schedule - no way we go dancing anytime soon unless we win a10 tourney Granted our OOC wasn't the best, but it didn't prevent us from the opportunity of going to the NCAAT. 3 teams in the Mohegan Sun Tourn. in the NCAAT- Northwestern, Wash. S...

ElmCityRhody

Not a 16 seed

That would hurt the 1 seeds

I make them 11ish

There are strong teams that didn’t make the cut

This would help mid major conferences as well

ElmCityRhody

32 team field

Games at 4 venues representing the ncaa brackets

Winner of each bracket represents the last 4 in

Fri - sun

Pushes ncaa back a week

Given that most of the pinned posts are either here, or in some cases possibly moving on, can we "un-pin" all but the '24 commits? Thanks!! funny because i was thinking the same exact thing like a day or 2 ago... please do this.. we have to scroll all the way down for relevant posts...

How many will there be? That's the question.
Definitely two more

Hopefully 4….

Pitino has his team on a roll

6 straight wins

Pitino vs Hurley Friday 5:30pm

Pitino would be the first head coach to lead six schools to the NCAA Tournament if St. John's gets in.

GREAT GREAT COACH

ElmCityRhody

addition by subtraction

tons more dead weight to get rid of for 2024-2025

ElmCityRhody

I don’t think he is bringing back many

Shouldn’t be a surprise - he pretty much told us this all year

Get rid of the zek’s/luis/etc

I don’t care if they are good/decent players

They aren’t the right players

ElmCityRhody

From the Projo today. Sounds like Archie wants to run it back with a good amount of the guys from this season. “We need to bring back a significant portion of this roster that’s about the right things, and we need our fans to start to grow with them a little bit. “We need our place to start to unde...

ElmCityRhody

Who is Archie Miller ? he is my coach who will lead Rhody into a consistent NCAA team I still firmly believe that - we need to clean house with most of our team and keep 8 players.. i defined them earlier.. but now beginning to think it should be 6-8.. those with no heart and don't play defense can ...

ElmCityRhody

Good riddance to most of these players

I am talking even to you starters

Bye !

ElmCityRhody

winning the a10 tourney = success

the rest = garbage throwaway season

For a coach at any level to come out and admit that his players dont give a shit, is basically unheard of. That's how bad things are. Any attempt to try and sugarcoat this is someone who is lying to themselves. Honesty is great, but this is SAD. sad for the current players - this is why most must g...

Keep whatever combo of guys you want and Arch can bring in HIS OWN GUYS, AGAIN. it's not going to matter if he & his staff aren't going to make adjustments in game, game to game, and play to his players strengths. if he's set on packline D this and whatever, forget it. forcing a particular syst...

some starters need to move on also...

I feel for Archie, the recruiting world is an absolute dumpster fire. Still pushing for him, and this team. Feeling for Archie also. Even tough I have been critical of his coaching the x and o in the past and early this season. Mrs 105 went over a few seats to thanks Archie’s wife for coming to gam...

Love Lou, but he’s way too slow to stick with A10 guards. I’d rather we land a defensive point guard. I also want to see Cam take on a bigger role next year. I don’t think we bring back House and Luis. If I had to pick one, it’s House. The biggest reason is he’s a dude who can get you 20, and he ha...
