bigapple... that was about as gloom and doom a picture as anyone could possibly paint. not to mention there is a high likelihood that dayton and st louis are in the BE next year. BE schools have 17 top 100 kids coming in... so it's not exactly like things are falling apart on the recruiting trail. g...

they lose about 34 points per game between cotton and batts. i think we can see ~8ppg for dunn. hopefully, more depth with the incoming freshmen (if they ever play) will make up close to the remaining 26ppg. and i can see a better defense with many bigger bodies coming.

why can't it get much worse? i'm sure a good coach would love to make $2.8M a year.

NO…say it isn't so…first a catholic child molester as a mascot, then criminals getting investigated, and now low level IQs…the sky is falling!…AND the A10 got more bids to the big dance.

i don't expect anything more from henton... i'll take 13 and 8 all day. i'm hoping we can get incremental gains from harris, and the freshman to make up the difference in points we lose with cotton. it makes me nervous, but i like a lot of the parts (if they play).

peeps4life

i'll really miss cotton and worry about replacing his production. i'm a huge dunn fan so i hope he can return healthy. kid is a game changer. hopefully next year the scoring can be more balanced with a lot more bench scoring.

The BE could lose this deal if ratings don't improve. Is FS1 here to stay? That would not be good for them, in just a slight understatement. ratings are a two way street in this venture. product needs to be good and fox needs to do a better job drawing eyes. no way in hell the money is not guarante...

peeps4life

i mean... i guess fox might fail with this venture... but i can't recall any other venture where they have failed with that big money behind them.

Some clown on Scout thinks Marshall of Wichita should go to Marquette. These NBE people just don't get it! This isn't the Big East anymore, except in name only. Learn it. Accept it. It will only get worse. Wichita State is now a far better program than ANY NBE program. Period. BE schools for the ne...

i fail to see how, to date, this is "much worse". the police are investigating a complaint at this point. and i could be wrong, but i doubt the providence spokesperson would go out of their way to say "I would recommend against drawing any conclusions that our process ended with a fi...

peeps4life

not assuming anything, hence "to date". at this point, there won't be physical evidence on her person. it is very likely to be a he said she said situation.

i will be absolutely appalled if this doesn't turn into a civil case.

holton wasn't dismissed from school until the robbery/fugitive charges came from FL. i would think that is the difference. and to date... bullock and austin haven't been charged with video voyeurism, but the rumor-mill has some video that circulated.

do you know how hard it is for a victim to come out and talk about for sexual harrassment. Especially when your a student at the college where it happened and the accusers are high profile athletes? not that hard as far as i see it. she reported it to campus police immediately who then encouraged h...

rambone 78 wrote:So peeps, why would she do that? For shits and giggles?

There must be something she didn't like about how it was handled.

Maybe she didn't think justice was served?

Guess we'll find out soon.

my guess... a precursor to a civil suit including the school. $$$

peeps4life

the girl was encouraged to report it. she did... on march 6th about 4 months after it happened and 3 months after punishments were handed out.

peeps4life

In situations involving sexual assaults and other serious allegations, you are frequently suspended pending the results of the investigation if the allegation is credible. A comparable situation is a cop that shoots someone. They are typically placed on leave until the investigation is concluded wh...

peeps4life

the girl had been encouraged to contact the police, but the school itself is under no requirement to do so. even if she had waited for the decision (which came in december)... i too question the motive of waiting 3 months after suspensions were given and 4 months after the matter was initially repor...

peeps4life

what bigappleram said.

anyway... regardless of who "has it"... cooley has done it every year, but so has every other coach. some of them have quickly turned the mic over to a senior leader to thank the crowd.

peeps4life

cotton is deserving of POY for BE... and simply gets screwed because of mcd. a co POY situation would be a nice gesture, but absolutely won't happen.

peeps4life

if seanmc was the dude complaining about baron (i had no idea this ever happened)... that is about par for the course with him. as for senior nights at pc... it happens every year.

peeps4life

weird a coach takes the mic on senior night? has happened basically every year i've had season tickets.

So much for an easier road in NY. Mason gags against the Dukes. Dayton takes care of business against Richmond. Looks like we'll be playing them on Thursday. PC is crapping out against Creighton. They and Georgetown have no business in the Dance. They can't win on the road. Either of them. Marquett...

ESPN has a lot more to do with it than the size of alumni fan bases of bigger schools. if having a lot of alumni was an indicator of national attention... there would be plenty of state schools getting exposure.

i would blame munford a little too. EC looked totally unprepared to receive the ball when he did. and if he gets the ball he needs to know what to do with it. a kobe bryant turnaround fade away jump shot from behind the foul line is not a high percentage shot that i imagine was drawn up. you scored ...

both teams looked absolutely awful. i can't speak to where uri has been strong this year or if you should have played better... but coming into tonight PC was ranked 2nd in the nation in FT% at 81%. that was certainly out of character for us. kadeem batts played like his vagina was strained. last ye...

Sat in front of 2 PC guys, and one of them (the know it all Sean?) thought every call for us was wrong and every one against was right. Exciting game with great defensive play, but poor offensive play, as usual. The forearm by fortune should have been a T, and I agree that's what set Hurley off. Co...

you guys seem like you are where i was with pc a year ago. right on the precipice of getting things back in line. just hope no one gets injured, everyone goes to class, and no one gets suspended for their sexual escapades.

i thought the refs were awful the entire game both ways. way too much contact. cotton was bumped at the top of the key on nearly every possession and it was called once. you guys scored like 38 of 49 points in the paint... can't believe there weren't more fouls there on our lazy frontcourt. the refs...

peeps4life

no definitive word on the freshman or dunn to this point. austin would be this teams 2nd scoring threat and backup PG to dunn. we are a night and day team with dunn in the lineup. his vision is light years beyond cotton. if the good players we keep recruiting ever actually play... we are going to be...

peeps4life

the only way we have more upside is if dunn and austin play this year.

peeps4life

be proud that you made our frontcourt (previously a strength) look like a bunch of little boys. i think even though you didn't win, you cost us a few games down the line at how easy it is to make batts look like a pansy boy.
