Good point! And you claim to be natamensa. All the great ones are modest!

Hope you and narch have a great turkey day!

Tavern wench! A round of Karma for the house ... on me!

Narch-

Did a pridefan really call you (word removed). Narch we may have differences in opinions, but no poster no matter what they say doesn't deserve a name called. That pridefan does not speak for all pridefans and at this point I will speak for all pridefans the comment was not and should not be a reflection of pridefans. There is no reason on your part to talk about the education of the institute.

when a supposedly educated person has to resort to petty name calling, i feel it is a direct reflection on the education they are receiving or have received - educated people typically have a bank of information from which to draw what they want say...those who lack the mental capacity and education to do so revert back to 6th grade antics - note that i never said anything negative about greensboro college as a whole...i'm sure gc is a wonderful educational institution...but we all know that different students have different experiences at each school

happy turkey day!

happy turkey day!

same to you narch, and to all of you other hoops fans (especially the cnu fans)!

Narch: You never know about this education thing. For instance, I know of a prominent national politician with degrees from Yale and Harvard who finds namecalling the easiest route to "communication...."

This looks like a new team, that is ready to make some noise in the USA South Conference. Coach Bill Tharp and his staff looks to have the respect of there players. I have not seen this out of a coaching staff there in some years! These is a team who gets up and down the floor and plays great team defense. This is not the same team we are use to seeing from Ferrum in the past. Will the coaching staff push these young men to work hard, if so look out for this team. Defense, Defense, Defense................
Ferrum has 17 players, they play about 8-10 so they are deep. Having 2 true point guards on there team this year is going to be a great help. Look out for Coach Tharp and his panthers. If he and his coaching staff stays consistent, I can see them finishing at the top of there conference. There is no "I" in this TEAM.

Quote from: notamensa on November 21, 2006, 03:50:09 PMi also think that york (ny) should definitely get some votes. how could they not have had even a single vote in the pre-season top-25 when they were voted pre-season #1 in their division (2 divisions in their conference)? they were a ncaa tournament team, after all.

they (york) were also 15-13 last year...getting pre-season top 25 votes

after a season like that is tough and being #1 in your conference doesn't necessarily mean you're a top 25 team -

i didnt suggest that they were a top 25 team, but rather questioned why they had not received a single vote. you would think that those that voted them #1 in their division would have also given them a vote in the d3hoops.com poll. maybe they are not the same voters? i see that the new top 25 poll is not out. does that mean that the games on tuesday will be considered? it will be really interesting to see the rankings for cnu and york (ny) if that is the case.

yea i think that York Ny is a very good team this year they are goin to be ranked after they beat WPU on sat. So dont sleep on this team the are scary team to play against

TheBeast · November 23, 2006, 02:58:27 PM

York NY is a very good team and they are goin to be ranked by next week if they beat the number 7 team in the nation on sat. this team is very deep and they have the player to get past the first round of the NCAA. so i would keep an eye out for them

Scout 1, welcome aboard! I have merged the post into the USASAC board where it is more appropriately placed.

Good luck! We appreciate any local hyperlinks or game info that you an give!

Yeah, oddly enough, the CUNYAC coaches poll and the D3hoops.com Top 25 have different voters.

Also, winning the CUNYAC has traditionally meant ... well, pretty much nothing on the national scene.

scottiedoug - i don't want to make this a political thing, but i think even george bush fans can agree (if they're being honest) that it's obvious "w" didn't get the most out of his substantial education...a perfect example of my earlier point "different students have different experiences at each school"
