So taken

Depauw takes its second road win in as many days defeating Franklin then Earlham,In the Wabash tip off classic.Nice wins for Depauw on the road early in the season.2-0

And that makes it less of a victory for a d3 over a d1 Ralph?

 :)Depauw defeated University of Evansville 66-62 about two weeks ago.

Point taken,but I didnt say travel or the schedule was everything.I didnt say it would kill recruiting,but when the coach uses it to seal the deal it must mean something...

Well I believe the same advantages hold true for all the Depauw athletes though I do look at it through the eyes of a men's basketball fan.Part of the draw to Depauw for basketball players is the travel schedule.Granted it is a large conference,but it resembles a D1 travel schedule and this is quite appealing to these young prospective college athletes.San Antonio,Austin,Memphis,Colorado Springs vs Kenyon,Wittenburg,Wooster....I think you probably get it.It was used as a recruiting point esp with those players choosing between Wabash and Depauw.The travel savings will be significant,but I think nearly across the board the competition will be lower.Now I will bite what advantages do you see in the NACA across the board?

   NOT AT ALL HAPPY WITH DEPAUW'S DECISION TO LEAVE THE SCAC.

I am still here and am very impressed with the quality of photos.That venue would be very difficult to get the quality that you have achieved.I viewed your go majors smug mug pics and found Depauw vs Millsaps and really enjoyed your sequence pictures (esp how it ended "sorry") Thanks and hope to see some more from you next year!!

Yall get ready to see the best defensive team you have probably faced all season!

Good Luck. Saw some pretty impressive video on them.Enjoy the run.

Congrats to Centre players ,fans and coaches.Centre is a very good ball club and deserving of the tournament win. You beat a very good Depauw team three times this year and that is hard to do with any team.Millsaps put on an excellent tournament and should be commended. Depauw players should be very proud of a 20-8 season.You overcame a lot of injuries and always competed. Good Luck Seniors in all you do and to the six Seniors to be, next year is your season lets go one step further.

Well its Kentucky vs Indiana today in the SCAC final,both men and women.Depauw men put on a nice run in the second half after a poor shooting first half by both AC and Depauw. Depauw held on at the end by knocking down crucial free throws when AC was forced to foul. Centre had a much easier game against Trinity which I was surprised by.Centre should be fresher but this is the finals and the colonels are our rivals so anything can happen.

Don't have a obvious pick for POTY like there was last year.Ward played hard the last 5min of the Depauw game but I think it takes more than that to earn a POTY vote.Attitude has to play a roll in the voting and this will hurt Mr.Rose.Lets just wait and see.

Well I think Depauw caught an unusual break getting the #2 seed and the bottom bracket. Centre as the #1 seed meets a very dangerous Millsaps on a roll at home... ouch ouch ouch Centre is a tough team (esp for Depauw)but Millsaps at home as the reward for taking the East doesn't seem like a bonus.Depauw did well vs Southwestern at home and will be a good game(nearly all will be).Austin looks to have a good draw to open.......Its just to close to call and I think experience is what it will come down to. Count the Seniors

Interesting weekend for Depauw out West.Two really good teams in Austin and Colorado College.The last two years CC has been a walk over but they have found a new toughness.Austin game came down to too many turnovers but credit the Roos defense in part for that.      Depauw found itself in a situation last year that all we needed to do was go to Centre and win a game and we were in the drivers seat.Well...that didnt happen as the Tigers had trouble even scoring in the first several minutes.This year is looking better..home game ...two game lead.....NOW DON'T EVEN THINK THE COLONELS HAVE GIVEN UP I look for a very good game and hope the home court is kind to us.
