Jacob Toppin has come to play 10 points so far

Yeah, Jacob! Drive that Coolswagon to Gtown!

[NYGFan_Section208]

There’s never been a game played in any sport in history in which the disparity in the regard I hold the respective coaches was wider than the UConn/Iona game today. Super happy for Dan. I worry a little that if he doesn’t win super big there soon their fans won’t appreciate what they have. I’ve always assumed it’s just a matter of time for him but it feels like the time could be now. His team is really good.

Haven't been there in a while, but during the season, the boneyard was ready to ship him out after every loss.

The Fairly Ridiculous lilliputians are more than holding their own against Purdue.

[Rhody15]

Jacob Toppin playing like he’s gonna go #1 over Wembenyama. Good lord.

[adam914]

Really happy for Toppin. A lot of questioning his transfer decision at the time and he’s proven a lot of people wrong.

No one was a bigger Toppin fan than me...if you disagree, please post pictures of the sign you brought to games when he played here....yikes, do you think maybe that's why he left...?

[reef]

Oscar T is terrible offensively , great rebounder though

[Rhody74]

Jacob Toppin has come to play 10 points so far

Watching him thinking what could have been.

[NYGFan_Section208]

GO FREEKn FDU!!!!!

[Jdrums#3]

Jacob hypothetical: Stay at Rhody and be A10 Player of the year or go to Kentucky ?

What would you do if you were him in the hypo ? Thought’s ?

Note: I am not saying he is A10 POY caliber or isn’t. Nor, am I endorsing DC would still be here. I am just proposing a fun what if scenario.

[steviep123]

Look what YouTubetv did:

[Rhody74]

Zach Eden is a freakin’ monster.

[Jdrums#3]

Purdue going down ?

[steviep123]

If they d up

[Rhode_Island_Red]

DOWN GOES PURDUE!
DOWN GOES PURDUE!
DOWN GOES PURDUE!

[DeanDome88]

I love it. If they ever kick the small conferences out of the tournament it would cease to be what it is.

[NYGFan_Section208]

NJ having a good tourney so far....

[DeanDome88]

All the ESPN brackets have now been busted.

[Rhode_Island_Red]

I never realized that the mental hospital is a bunch of hackers

[NYGFan_Section208]

All the ESPN brackets have now been busted.

To quote a famous recently retired regional announcer, "it's a beautiful thing"

[Jdrums#3]

Big Ed signing with GU soon.

[Dino611]

I love the ncaa tourney

[NYGFan_Section208]

Big Ed signing with GU soon.

Actually....in terms of extended, optimal, amped up disarray...it would be great if he waited a few weeks

[Rhode_Island_Red]

DOWN GOES THE MENTAL HOSPITAL!
DOWN GOES THE MENTAL HOSPITAL!
DOWN GOES THE MENTAL HOSPITAL!

It's worth repeating ...

DOWN GOES THE MENTAL HOSPITAL!
DOWN GOES THE MENTAL HOSPITAL!
DOWN GOES THE MENTAL HOSPITAL!

[adam914]

The greatest tournament in sports and it’s not even close

[ElmCityRhody]

OVERATED COACH

USC
SOUTH DAKOTA STATE
RICHMOND

only W’s in 25 years

PC LOSERS

[damram]

How I hate Providence. I watched that game with the intensity of a Rhody-Criars game at the Ryan Center. I am so glad that Toppin had an impact on the game.

[ElmCityRhody]

Bahahaha

3 wins in 25 years

And not anyone even any good and one was a play in game

I thought they walk on water ???!

[NYGFan_Section208]

This is not the time to make fun of the leaky roof or the floor at the dunk. Then again, maybe it is....

URI knocked PC out of this tournament.

Prove me wrong! You can’t!

[bigappleram]

URI might have ended Cooley’s tenure at PC

[damram]

It’s not the dump anymore, it is the damp.

[ElmCityRhody]

Cooley blows

Overated who can’t win the big game or should I say “a” game

Bahahahahahaha

[Obadiah]

Ed Cooley is Jim Baron redux.

[ElmCityRhody]

Excuse me - I forgot the win against South Dakota state and Richmond … oh and usc

Apologies

Bahahaha

South Dakota state !

[steviep123]

I only watched the last 2 min bc I was watching the FDU upset of Purdue. Crazy. FDU clearly wanted it more.

Even crazier is they are only in the tournament bc their conference champions (Merrimack)wasn’t eligible.

[ElmCityRhody]

“First round ed”

HAHAHAHA

[reef]

Say it ain’t so Matt Painter Zack Edey ED Cooley the Purdue Boilers and the PC Friars !!

[NYGFan_Section208]

Say it ain’t so Matt Painter Zack Edey ED Cooley the Purdue Boilers and the PC Friars !!

Oh, it's so.... totally so

[steviep123]

Good news for Purdue: after losing to a 15 seed last year and a 16 seed this year, there’s no such thing as a 17 seed to lose to next year. Too soon?

[Rhody09]

Interesting facts from Reddit:

FDU's defense was ranked 360th on KenPom going into the tournament. There are 363 Division I teams.

FDU lost to KenPom #362 Hartford. They lost to Stonehill and Queens who were Division 2 schools this time last year. They hadn't even announced their D1 moves yet.

FDU finished third in their conference this year behind two teams not eligible for D1 postseason due to being recent DIl call-ups.

Their conference was the worst conference in basketball this year. It has never won a round of 64 game in its history.

FDU did not even win the conference tournament.

FDU had one win above Q4 all year. One.

This makes UMBC over Virginia look like a 10-7 upset.

Actually, they called FDU a 17 seed during the broadcast..they were an AQ without even winning their conference...so there's that

[Backroads]

Now I see why Cooley scheduled FDU during the Covid year instead of us

[STC]

I can’t believe I just saw Jacob Toppin in an AT&T commercial.

[NYGFan_Section208]

Now I see why Cooley scheduled FDU during the Covid year instead of us

Because FDU is better?

[Rhody15]

If FDU can go 4-22 last season, win a play in game and beat a 1 seed the following year…why not us?

Just get me to Saturday in Brooklyn and the A10 semis and I’ll be happy!

[bigappleram]

FDUs coach is awesome. Was dominant at STAC in D2.
