MBB: MAC Freedom League

[Warren Thompson]

That said, I can't wait to see John Bunch make some noise in the NCAA's.  Just a shame Monmouth got a 16 seed.  I was hoping they'd get stuck in the play-in game, y'know, give them a shot at an NCAA victory.

I wonder if Bunch is somehow more mobile now that he's in D1. When I saw him v. LVC two years ago, he took up a great deal of room underneath and scored respectably ... but he just couldn't seem to run. (On the other hand, perhaps with a better supporting cast, he doesn't need to.)

Bunch is no more mobile than he was a couple of years ago.  I have seen Monmouth twice this season on local cable and he is great in the half court but make him run and he is sitting fairly soon.  Hofstra got jobbed this year, they are a good team and would have been fun to watch, I guess it is time to watch the NIT this year.

A MAC-F fan calling the NJAC overrated is like a Syracuse newspaper calling McNamara overrated...

Aren't they in the play in game?  Congrats to 9th seeded Bucknell.

Thanks Coach.  I will enjoy watching this game.  I have watched Monmouth this year and they are a Jersey team.  I also used to go to games at Hampton back when the school was still called the Hampton Institute.  They were always a fun team to watch, there is a lot of good basketball in that part of Virginia on all levels for both men and women.

Hampton Institute? Didn't they have a player years back named Greg "Dunkin" Hines? Or was that Va. Union?

Naismith,
More like Never, Never Mind Brutico's?

Adam got some airtime on TV yesterday, now he's looking to move into taking over for Mitch Miller's orchestra.

And, where is nightstalker?  The overrated NJAC has come up short yet again in its quest for that elusive national championship. If that conference couldn't win it with Trenton State and "Machine Gun" Grant, they never will.

See Rowan 96.

Greg Hines was drafted in the fifth round of the 83 NBA draft out of Hampton Institute by Golden State.

Drop me an e-mail. Was in NJ 2 weekends ago and NYC this past one.  Mostly biz and no basketball. Would have loved to taken in a few of the Big Beast contests.
CJ tells me that Gerry Mac is applying to Wilkes and petitioning the NCAA for another 4 years....lol

Your veal T-Bone is still on order. Not sure of your work schedule...

Let me know.

The over-rated NJAC took out both MAC champions in quite embarassing fashion if I recall. I even recall reading a couple of posters saying it took them a few days to get over the thrashing that WPU gave Scranton. WPU gave up an average of 46 points per game for four games, that is not an overrated team, that is a very good defensive team. They unfortunately had to run into a team that plays defense as well as they do in VA Wesleyan.

Interesting how it seems to all go in a circle.  Also interesting is how many successful coachs are former point guards.

1. Villanova over 16. Monmouth: A freebie to give Allan Ray's eye another couple of days to heal. Monmouth's big John Bunch might not last a minute playing at 'Nova's pace.

Now that Terry Conrad got whacked at Bloomsburg, when will the rumor mill begin on which local coach is applying for the job?
