MBB: Great South Athletic Conference

Thanks Killa, and it is suprising to me that you are wrong 1.3% of the time. Just to let everyone know all games will be "live stat" on our website. All games involving LaGrange will be radio broadcast and you can get both links off our website. I am not exactly sure where but it shouldn't be too hard for everyone to find. Good luck and safe travels to everyone.

Nice post, Killer.

I happen not to agree with this part ...

QuoteBobby congrats on the award "by the way you are the "POY" hands down.. Sorry Jake...0-2 against Da Ville, 0-2 against LaGrange

But there's nothing wrong with two different opinions, respectfully expressed. Nice post.

For those of you who have an opinion (or any interest in) whether "teams" are made up of groups of five, or not ...

Here is a news release from the ODOC ...
http://athletics.wlu.edu/sports_releases/0607releases/odacmbb.htm

6 on the first team
7 on the second team
7 honorable mentions
Hmmm ...

No idea what that underlying logic is ... or it's impact on all-region teams ...

No, no smart ass ... I just have no idea.

Old lion I warned you I am only 98.7% right on most things...

We all have our opinions on things but its hard for me to give the MVP award to someone who does not lead his team to a winning season within conference play.. I don't know how you guys finished up but it was not that good..

MVP or POY awards in all sports are given to guys who WIN!!! Rarely do you see an MVP or a POY given to a guy from a losing team...

I think he totally deserves to be 1st Team but not POY

By the way 1st Team ALL GSAC Board:
Old Lion
Matt Grubb

Opinion acknowledged and respected ... I have no problem with the team's record being a factor. I just think the player's contributions to his team, whatever their record, are more significant.
And I meant no disrespect to Bobby ... he is a very good player who has had a great 4 year career at Murvul. I just think Jake's numbers and intangibles are undeniable. He has had a monster year ... IMHO, head and shoulders above everyone else in the GSAC.

But you blew this one! The Killer has to be in there somewhere ... especially after the examples of eloquence, graciousness, and ... MODESTY

... in your recent posts. The Killer is rounding out his "posting up" game. 8)

BTW, did you get that approved ... to put 5 on the 1st team?

You are aware we only have 4 teams in the conference?

There seems to be a "rising tide" of support for the old-school concept of "teams of five" ... I like it.

But I am scared. I just don't know ... teams of five? ... or teams of four? What we do here has far reaching implications. Can we really afford to run the risk of diluting the all region d3sports.com/post team?

*Facetiously, not sarcastically ... the former is "meant to be humorous or funny : not serious <a facetious remark>" ... the latter can be mean spirited ... we don't need that.

I'll gladly play poll worker for a D3 hoops-posting up - All GSAC team.
My profile email is fine to send your ballots to.

Give me your five second team, four 1st team and player of year.

Emails must come in by 3pm Monday Feb 26, results posted that night. Include your D3 hoops board ID as I don't want to sort through profiles trying to make sure no one is voting twice.

For any and all going to LaGrange, I'll be the guy with laptop and sportcoat trying to kill time between MC women's 1pm game and the men's 7:30 game. I've had shorter layovers at O'Hare.

mattgrubb · February 23, 2007, 08:58:01 AM

I sent in my list
Teams of 5 just for you Old Lion

Ralph Turner · February 23, 2007, 10:31:54 PM

Congratulations, Coach Haynes!

Spencer Beaty · February 24, 2007, 10:20:22 AM

this is it. The big 500. I hope it is a good game against Lagrange, but I hope randy doesn't have to stress about it.

mattgrubb · February 24, 2007, 04:46:36 PM

36-27 scots at the half

mattgrubb · February 24, 2007, 09:31:29 PM

well it is in the books
Lambert 500
Scots another GSAC title with a dominant performance by Bobby Golden and a glimpse into next season with Bo, Bowers, and Bradley working great together on the perimeter

Bradley Blair played well but was plagued by foul trouble

Lagrange did a great job hosting the tournament

Bobo is a baller, tourney MVP

Spencer Beaty · February 24, 2007, 09:59:00 PM

Congrats Randy. See you in Salem.

Ralph Turner · February 25, 2007, 01:03:10 AM

Congratulations to Coach Lambert! 500 is a good round number.

We are looking for to your trip to Miss College again this year.
