Anyone think Meehan is regretting that decision to bench his studs for the Wash.U. game? If the infractions were as insignificant as some have conjectured, you'd have to think that somewhere deep down he'd question his decision if things didn't go according to plan on selection day. That issue aside, I was hoping some of our more numerically-inclined/aware of NCAA logistics could answer a few things for me.
Nah. Doubt Brandeis was winning at Wash U anyway.
The moments to regret were the home loss to Framingham, the road loss to Chicago and the two-point loss to Lasell to start the year. If they win that Lasell game, they're a lock, you'd think.

Brandeis destroyed a highly tauted Emrson team 97-70. Brandeis has rebounded with 4 solid wins in a row after their rough 0-3 start. Brandeis held Emerson's best player, Shannon, to 15 points on 5-14 shooting and forced him to commit 7 turnovers.
Quote from: fpc85 on March 17, 2008, 07:43:51 PMBrandeis is graduating 5 seniors in Hill, Coppens, Graves-Fulgham, Rexhepi, and Saucier... but, DeLuca will be back, and that will make up a tremendous amount of the offense lost. Plus Hollins and Roberson will now be juniors, and if both work hard on their shooting in the offseason they could be much better. Plus Olson will now be a senior, and Magee basically turned his Brandeis career around with his defensive play late in the year. On top of that, the Judges seem to be bringing in a stellar recruiting class, which you can read about here: http://www.newenglandrecruitingreport.com/news/article/281/Brandeis-Putting-Together-AllStar-Recruiting-Class.php. This kid Kriskus sounds like he's the next DeLuca, and if DeLuca is back healthy himself, which he hopefully should be, Brandeis could be even better next season.Quote from: old_hooper on March 17, 2008, 07:05:39 PMWhat is the early read on the judges for next year....deluca should replace some of the firepower that is graduating....is hill a senior?
Just want to give some props to Brandeis on an great season and the seniors who have brought the program to another level. It is unfortunate that they had Amherst in their sectional and it makes you think what it might have been had they been in UMD situation. They are as good as any of the other teams in the final four. Amherst 2nd half was a tremendous defensive effort and they dominated in the paint. I don't know if I buy into the Hixon quote about Plattsbugh being the 6th man stuff. Amherst did not put out any less energy on Friday night because they played Richard Stockton. From the stats, I think the Judges may have used their bench more then the Jeffs for the weekend. Congrats to Coach Meehan and the Judges for a steller year!
Quote from: La Verdad on March 16, 2008, 06:05:13 PMI saw Amherst play Brandeis twice, and they were basically a completely different team in the second half yesterday than the three halves prior. The official stats said 12 blocks, but trust me it was probably much closer to 20. It seems to me that it's just an issue of motivation for them. When Amherst brings it's A game, they won't lose. I think the only thing that could stop them is the fact that the players seem to know that, and as a result at times they just think they can turn it on when they need to and be fine. If Amherst just goes through the motions for a half, a team could really take it to them if they played an A+ game themselves. But when the Lord Jeffs do turn it on, watch out. I think two 17-0 runs in back to back games shows what they can do....when they want to
I've never seen Amherst play defense like they did yesterday vs. Brandeis. They are gonna be tough to beat if they bring the same intensity to Salem.
Quote from: heart4rose on March 14, 2008, 05:29:10 PMRight! When Brandeis, needs to, they pull in up to 4 sections of bleachers on the other side of the court (as they did for the tourney last week). There were 2000ppl there last friday for lasell and there were still a few seats on the other side, plus if Brandeis really needed to they could pull out even more bleachers to put behind the baskets.
Brandeis does pull out the other side for the big games so they do have seats on both sides - very nice gym.
