MBB: Old Dominion Athletic Conference

[narch]

even though we struggled on the offensive end, the defense has been performing well here recently.

nobody sees the glass 1/2 full better than you, scottie...i love that about you

Now maybe the offensive woes can be taken care of with time and effort put into the offensive end of the floor without taking away from the defensive end, maybe we'll start to get wins again.[]

refresh my memory...at what point did lynchburg win with enough regularity to use the last part of that quote "get wins again"?

[jdubyadubya]

Ok. I get it now. What I REALLY meant is as follows:
Emory & Henry
Hampden-Sydney
Eastern Mennonite

That means I'm 4 and 0!

So, Steely, please go ahead and change my "pick-ems."

Thanks. Your friend, JWW

I know GC shot only 19 free throws, but how many of those that the Tigers shot were late in the game when the Quakers had to foul?

according to the play-by-play in the box score, the tigers were 6-11 from the ft line in the last 3:18 of the game while the quackers were 3-6 from the ft line in the same time period - any coach fouling purposefully in a relatively close game (the lead was 6 at the 3:18 mark) with that much time left would have to be questioned (unless he thought his team defended the ft better than any other shot...in which case, he needs to work with his team on defensive fundamentals)

Which coach leads the ODAC with technicals?

Didn't see the game last nite but I agree, with over 3 minutes left in the game and only a 6 point advantage, way too early to foul, particularly against a team that hadn't been performing offensively too well coming into the game. I think I would try to force them to beat me from the field. Seems to me that most coaches in the ODAC are pretty good but even good coaches use poor judgement some time. Can't wait to see GC play at HSC next month... should be another good game

question: when a player does soemthing to receieve a technical foul, but he is sitting on the bench, does it count as a bench/team technical, or is it credited to the player?

Direct technical fouls for unsportsmanlike conduct of a player on the bench count towards the player's 5 fouls for disqualification, they are charged to the offender, and also charged to the head coach, too, and also count to the team foul total.   Rule 10, Section 10, Art. 2, 4.

[mybleedinghands]

> huh?

according to that guys ratings, rmc is the 29th ranked team, vwc is 46th, etc. and the numbers in parentheses are their stregth of schedule ratings. so macon has the 92nd best SOS in D3

[baselinejam]

Terrible ranking and high SoS go hand in hand for my Generals

[tigerfanalso]

Those SOS ratings don't speak well for the ODAC !!!!

Ummmmmm, not trying to be rude, but why should we care about this?  I'm not a stats jockey (I wish I were), though, so perhaps I just don't get it.
