Yes, unfortunately, I think if Cowgirl fans want to blame anyone it should be the Southwestern Pirates for finishing at .500.  Remember in 2003-2004, Trinity was left out of the tournament at 24-3, a record including two losses to Depauw when both teams were in the top 10.  That third loss was to McMurry who finished 16-9 that year.  Now granted, it was a smaller tournament field at that time but that was a team that was more than worthy of a bid but it was the one loss in Abilene that kept them out.  Also, the top 25 polls on D3 hoops and on the WBCA site have nothing to do with the NCAA's selection of tournament teams.

Ralph I hope they archive hoopsville tonight...it's always great listening to Coach K interview and listen to him speak to his team...everytime he calls a timeout or gets them in a huddle, he has a way of motivating his players and getting them to execute.

Congrats to HPU for a great run so far this year.  You won it hands down,  my cowboy hat is off to the ladies.

Last year was the surprise.  That HSU did  go.  Third place teams don't usually.  It really doesn't matter if they could have won a couple of games.   You play the regular season for a reason.

I will hold to my prediction.  Hpu will win at least two games in the playoffs.  The third game would be great.  No way a fourth.  Just a prediction,  I don't hope this to be truth.   If you don't like the prediction,  make your own.

How i love predictions...as ive said before...they present an awesome opportunity to place one's foot directly in his mouth! ha ha

but nonetheless...  I saw HPU practice before their first game and new that this team was gonna be incredible.  They're talented guards and posts...all of which are great shooters...add their intense defense...and wow...its paradise!!!

i left the gym and told my buddy Kelly Foster "they're going to the final four this year..." to which he replyed "your crazy"

still so, i posted it on Jan 16 and i'll post it again...HPU to the final four!

GOOD LUCK JACKETS

My HSU Cowgirls lost?  :o   I was away on a fishing trip and missed the action.

Go McM and HPU!  Represent the ASC well.   :) :) :) :)

Seriously i'm worried about InthePaint... those are just very strange things for InthePaint to be saying... i think he needs help.  Everyone may not recognize it but i know that Ralph has to see the change.  i'm just really concerned.

"Paint, are you ok.  if you need to talk, i'm here for you!" 

ha ha  :) :) :) :) 

hmmmm seriously though...dont think i didn't notice that you put McM before HPU!!!

sneaky!

Thanks Pat,  I figured it would be the next day that it would show up, but I know Sunday's show they talked about forgetting to get it recorded...

Everybody is for McM AND HPU, don't mess it up by looking deeper than it really is.

Paint is lost...   :'(

He went fishing somewhere away from radio contact with his Cowgirls.  :o

I guess I am "ASC Proud".  We really need a strong showing from McM versus the highly respected teams in their bracket.

Don, thanks for noticing the softer, gentler "in the paint!"  Trust me, I am just fine.  In fact, I have never been better.  For the record, I put McM before HPU because we always put the underdogs first! 

I hope HPU and McM put on a display that tells the nation that the ASC is not the conference of yesterday.  This is a conference of top-shelf talent and strong, able coaches.  I wish Coach K and his Lady Jackets as well as Sam Nichols and his Lady Tribe nothing but "good bounces" all the way to the Final Four.  Shoot, I wish them victory all the way to a national title.  Coach K has proven to me (not that he had to) that he is one of the best coaches to ever take the hardwood in the ASC West.  He has taken a good amount of negative smack from a lot of folks here.  He has proven us all wrong.  Sam has always been a champion-calibre coach and I hope to see it again this year.

Oh, and I was bass fishing.

Bench Coach

Quote from: hpfan on February 26, 2007, 12:51:16 PM
To thejungle: Do you really want to talk about someone being inconsiderate.  What about a coach who sends his assistant to shake the hands of the players from the other team like every other coach in the division, as to say he is too good to shake the hands of the opposing players.

To: fanstand: I agree that MCM has a great team, and I also agree that the refs were not the best at the game yesterday, but they were equally as bad at both ends of the court.  MCM did not loose due to the refs.  And you should have put more emphasis on COULD have won.  You did not beat yourself, HPU won the game.  Both teams are great teams and deserved to be in the championship game.  HPU came out on top though.


The assistant coach has always shook hands with the other team...I have seen it done many times before because the head coaches is talking to his players and getting them ready for the game.  And the officals were not equal.  Just because they play a zone doesn't mean they are not fouling. 
HPU fans, you have your chance to complain and if you want to call it whine when your team losses  so don't you think we can have our chance.  I am going to be honest, I have been around many teams and all of the sudden you have a different air thinking that you are so much better then everyone else and untouchable, but on any given night, to any given team you can be beat.  I have seen that many times this year, much less in the past. 
LIB - go to Oregon and reck shop and then come back and get you some Lady Jackets!!!

Bench Coach, the Lady Jackets haven't lost in a while so I'm glad you're able to let us know how bad it feels to lose. 

As far as thinking they are the best, well only one loss, ranked #1 in the region, won the ASC West and the Conference tournament, wouldn't that make them the best around this area?

They aren't arrogant or cocky about it but they do walk with a swagger and are very confident.  They have every right to be and know they can beat anybody in the country.  They'll get to prove it starting this Saturday night at 7pm in Brownwood.

Good luck to McMurry out in Oregon on Friday.

Well said, DBalla!  A little swagger and confidence is in order!   ;)
