MBB: Landmark Conference

[NEPAFAN]

Getting close to July.

Scranton has Mike Barr.

Catholic has Donavon's son, and another guy from Western PA.


Juniata has released their whole recruiting class.


Anyone have anything else? My source has dried up.

[saratoga]

NEPA: Too much sun?

[NEPAFAN]

For who? Me , my source, or Danzig?



RIP George Steinbrenner.

[saratoga]

A possible promotion for George Costanza?
The "Boss" & Bob Shepard gone within days of each other. . I bet Billy's giving them the tour already.
One can only hope the next thing to leave the Yankees is their lead!

Saratoga, one of the BEST things you've ever said!!!

[NEPAFAN]

Wow , the hate runs deep in these parts.


I did like seeing every Yankee and Red Sox player get booed last night!

Cardinals fans,
  FYI- In celebration of 100 years of CU bball, the summer edition of CUA magazine has 2 pages of the history of Cardinal bball, a trip package for the Notre Dame game(6 Nov), and a game against Gettysburg(11 Dec) not in the abbreviated schedule on the team web site. 

[ronk]

And the celebration honoring players, teams, and coaches(29 Jan), presumably against Juniata since Susque is the opponent the day before.

[NEPAFAN]

MMA have a coach yet?


Heard that Scranton brought in a PG, but still searching for that elusive big man.

[ronk]

MMA position still listened as open.
Royals' Las Vegas opponents to be Ramapo and Ripon; they played Ramapo 2 years ago on their own; too bad they don't play somebody else.
  Royals' going with 5 3-pt shooters this year til the elusive big man shows up, maybe the man from snowy river-Tom Bicknell.
Talked briefly with a Goucher player at my health club today, but he wasn't aware of their incoming players at this point.
Everyone in Landmark except Juniata is keeping their playing cards close to their vests- no info promulgated. 

[saratoga]

Scranton's schedule is now officially even more pathetic than the one put together the past three years.
They travel 3,000 miles to play Ramapo...brilliant! I guess Rosemont was already booked.
I'd imagine this is exactly the type schedule the NCAA selection committee loves to see when it comes down to a bubble team...a true no brainer. You didn't play anyone outside your conference, high school teams play tougher non-conference games & I just bet their opponents/opponents winning % is probably going to be under.500.
How can you book this schedule & even remotely think the NCAA will ever consider you in Regional rankings? They wouldn't get my vote if they ended up 20-5 with the schools they're playing.
Another season seeing them killed on the boards & limited to one shot. This movie needs another ending.

Still no coach for MMA, from what I've heard.

Tried to get scoop on Susquehanna's recruiting class but Marcinek is tight-lipped as usual. Have heard rumors of some new big men on campus, but that's about it.

Schedule's up: http://www.gosusqu.com/sports/mbkb/2010-11/schedule. D1 game with Lafayette on Dec. 19, should be interesting.

[NEPAFAN]

Scranton's President Fr. Scott Pilarz is leaving at the end of the academic year to take over at Marquette University. I wish him the best of luck.

I would like to get Saratoga on the new President search committee to make sure the University finds somone supportive of Basketball...

[ronk]

   Maybe we could entice the president of Moravian(Chris Thomforde) to make the move; I think he's a reverend and I've seen him play bball for Princeton.
   Trying to recover from attending the Boise St- VPI game last nite with alumni son and grandchildren and 86000 of my closest friends.

Has anyone heard anything about the MMA coaching search?  Krikorkian took the CNU job on June 14th.   The season starts in a little under a month.  Does anyone know what is taking so long?
