No doubt, ScotsFan. I can see why it'd be a little galling every time that you see a newbie in the Final Four. But keep in mind that, out of the 420-odd schools that participate in D3 men's basketball, only 70 have ever been to the Final Four. Therefore, the newbies are gonna keep on comin'.

In only one year out of the last twenty (2008) has the Final Four consisted entirely of programs that have been there before.

I started following this  mostly for D1 recruiting since both Michigan and Michigan State seem to be hitting Indiana hard lately.   http://indianarecruitingguide.com/     Brandon Ramsey, the guy who runs the thing says he's a sophomore at Hanover College.

Found this yesterday.......on his twitter account of all places.

Depauw got a great pickup by landing Muncie Central PG Adam Botts. Very good player, should make an instant impact.

and from Adam

Breaking my Twitter silence to say that I'll be playing basketball at Depauw University next year! Go TIGERS!!!



Adam Botts:  5'11" Point Guard, Muncie Central H.S.  (he lists himself as 6-1)

Offers:  Northwood (DII), St. Francis (NAIA)

How is the NCAC shaping up for next season? What does recruiting look like throughout the league?

sac

Hiram's schedule is out, not much different from last season other than the Terriers are going to Vegas.

Partial schedule for Wabash, some open dates yet.  Calvin is one of the other teams at the Elmhurst tournament.

You can get sac's opinion on this from his blog:

Hope you don't mind a break in the action, as it were, but I want to share a story the D3 community should know about. You actually may have seen the story on the front page of D3hoops.com, but just in case:

A Goucher basketball player has been paralyzed in a freak accident. He was wrestling around with a friend one morning in his dorm building when he landed on his neck. The entire story is here.

He was released from the hospital to the Kennedy Krieger Institute for rehab shortly after that article was posted last week. However, over the weekend he was sent back to the hospital when he apparently had trouble breathing. Now he awaits a return to the rehab facility, probably any day if he hasn't been released already.

Please keep Damone Brooks, his family, the Goucher basketball team(s), and Goucher community in your thoughts, hearts, and prayers. The family certainly needs help with medical bills as well, so if you feel inclined, please consider them as well.
