Ru White not getting ODAC is one of the egregious snubs I have ever seen. He is without a doubt better than everyone, other than maybe Eli Crawford, on the honorable mention team. Seriously telling me freaking Rick Maloney or J.D. Ey were a better player this year??

White was 13th in the ODAC in scoring, 3rd in blocks, 16th in steals, 4th in assists, 10th in rebounds per game, and 10th in FG%. Plus he also helped shut down and/or contain other team's top perimeter player. In fact, Ru was the ONLY player in the ODAC to rank top 10 in blocks, assists, and rebounds. Tack on 13th in scoring, and he should have been a shoein. It's not he is a freshman and thus going to have basically zero chance of getting All-ODAC unless ROY, Ru is a junior and clearly a top player in the ODAC.

Wow, Looks like your Marlins found their stroke that they've been missing over the past week and a half of the season....67% (39-58) from the field and 60%(9-15) from behind the arc....Ouch, that's scorching hottt!! Glad there was no upset early on. Keeping my Royals hopes alive for an at large if we dont happen to win the tourney.

Yeah, that is a bit rough! I would agree he is better than all those except Crawford as well because if Eli really wanted all the accolades he can drop the ball in the basket in bunches, but he's only worried about winning. Tough luck for Ru....that's a shame

DeWayneCarter · February 25, 2011, 02:53:50 PM

Yes man... I feel so much better about our chances to win the ODAC now.. maybe it was the ODAC rims.. shots seem to go down more smoothly in them

You make the trip to salem DeWayne???

Will2Win · February 25, 2011, 03:35:53 PM

Just wondering, for instance I am an EMU fan and we all know they're on the bubble and likely need to atleast win tonight to get a pool C bid...Should I be rooting for one team or another here in the quarters of the (Randolph/Guilford game)??(Besides Randy Mac or Va Wes)
-Thanks

Root for whichever team will help your strength of schedule more.

Yeah, thats what I figured just wasnt really sure which one would. haha. I'm guessing Guilford?

Will2Win · February 25, 2011, 04:03:38 PM

Wow, I cant say I saw this one coming after Guilford closed the season so strongly but nontheless Randolph all over the Quakers 42-22 at the half. Both teams started off rather poorly (1-8 a piece) but Randolph started to get some shots to fall and Guilford hasnt. Dont know if it's good D or what but Guilford's shooting 25% from the field and 0% from behind the arc. Pittman only has 5 at half on 2-6 shooting. And it seems like everyone is hitting from behind the arc for Randolph. Timmy Clarke leads Randolph with 11 at the half off the bench on 4-5 shooting and 3-4 from range. Interesting first half.

DeWayneCarter · February 25, 2011, 04:06:47 PM

Wow.... definitely didn't think Guilford would be getting dubbed by Randolph right now.... but then again, this is the ODAC tournament

This one's getting a little rediculous....Randolph came out and hit their first two 3's in the 2nd half and they now have more made 3's(11) than Guilford has made shots all game (9)....WOW
BUT, with all that being said Guilford's still only down 14 with 15 mins to go
