How about Coach Danzig's celebration???!!!

Hey everyone,

I was just checking the Men's top 25 and noticed that going into the NCAA tournament, Scranton did not have one single solitary vote to appear in the Top 25. I was curious if any men's team has advanced to the Final Four without having a vote in the Top 25.

Let's go Royals!

Why argue with the guy? If it were F&M in Scranton's position, they'd be yapping up a storm.

haha, yeah the F&M boards have been eerily quiet this post season. I think most are either cautiously optimistic or are still too scarred from 94 and 04 to talk.

If i had to make a gun to my head prediction about that pod, i think F&M will win tonight but lose to MIT tomorrow.

i live, but my diplomats dont.

Issues with the site last night...Just wanted to applaud Scranton for their run this year and wish Cabrini luck in the Final Four.

I am sure Scranton will recieve some Top 25 votes....

Hopefully we will have some good things to chat about in the offseason...

I was planning on a buddy-road trip to Va. if the Royals made it that far. Hey, it was a great run by Scranton and they did it with guts and class. ..Gave my fam a suggestion to purchase me Royals logo for future celebrations, aka upcoming birthday. Was disappointed that I, too, could NOT get video for the game Saturday night. .......Congrats to Cabrini. I'm now pulling for them to win it all...

Sat nite I switched from trying d3hoops video link to the gomiddtv link directly and got the video with 7:12 to go in the 1st half.
Would have been great to have gotten together 1 more time at the final 4. Had a good time at the women's final 4 in 2005 - real family atmosphere with a team hotel, lobby discussions, Mass, dinner reception in addition to the basketball.

Still want to know why Scranton left the MAC or do you already know?

NEPAFAN · March 15, 2012, 12:42:59 PM

Cabrini is in the PAC.

Karma at 10? Ouch!!!

kate · March 15, 2012, 12:49:42 PM

Cabrini is in the Colonial States Athletic Conference, formerly the Pennsylvania Athletic Conference.

Even worse. Kate, are you making it personal by taking karma from me daily?

Hi Cold Case, only when you keep emphasizing what you're feeling about how our local leagues operate. I'm sure Scranton men & women would be thrilled to get an athletic player mid-season, or a transfer at any point in said season. As a matter of fact, i seem to remember some transfers a few years back on the women's side that helped that team quite a bit. Personally, i think it's wonderful to give a kid, male or female the chance for a little notoriety while they're still able to run the court.

Kate, sure I would love to see the Scranton men/women get a transfer or two but at what cost?
I guess it would depend on the GPA of that student. Also, they better come from wealthy parents because Scranton doesn't hand out cash because he or she is a great athlete.
BTW, why aren't you banned for smiting posters? I understand LustyLarryintheToilet got whacked for taking karma away from a certain moderator on a daily basis.
