MBB: Landmark Conference

[cold_case]

Keep talking about karma and you'll keep losing it. There's perhaps no greater truth on D3boards.

Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma, karma....that's enough. My fingers are tired.
It's too bad space at newspapers is at a premium. I could write a good article about this board.

[Dave 'd-mac' McHugh]

Nothing to announce at this point but did discuss recruiting Sunday with Coach Harney of St. Mary's College at an all star game -we are both interested in the same player. Hopefully, one of us will get good news.

Ronk, I hope it doesn't come down to the price of admission...we know who is winning that one.

LOL - thus the answer to the question as to why Goucher and Catholic left the CAC...

"Truth is the best defense against libel."
Of course it would be.

  Yes, that is a major hurdle.

Well, I look forward to the interview. Unless you're writing a column, rather than an article.

Pat, are you looking for editing work?

Dave, do you know Phil Wood? Al Coken?

Was Scranton a Top 8 team in the country because they made it to the Elite 8?

in a lot of cases an elite 8 run could earn a team a top 8 finish depending on their tournament performance.  Was Cabrini a top 2 team only because they made the title game?

Scranton did the "dirty work" of beating Middlebury in terms of Cabrini not having to face the Panthers. That doesn't take anything away from Scranton or their win... it is something I am referencing in terms of Cabrini. I don't think Cabrini beats Middlebury by 20 as they did Scranton... different tactics, different match-ups, etc.

I don't think Scranton beats William Paterson nearly as easily as they beat Becker in the second round - if they win at all. Heck, we seem to forget the Royals needed to come from 18 down in the first game just to force OT and win the game.

My metrics were heavily fading William Paterson heading into the tournament.  Becker, the prior five weeks, had been playing much better defense.  Even though the game wouldve been a home one for WP, its quite possible that Becker on a neutral court was the tougher matchup. 

Scranton clearly did the dirtiest work of any team in the entire tournament, winning a game no one had won in about 3 seasons.  It could be argued that at least twice (no hope, no middlebury) Cabrini was the recipient of a favorable matchup, and maybe even a third time (oswego wouldve likely been a tougher opponent than EConn).  Thats not to take away from Cabrini as every team catches one break along the way, we saw it this week with D1.

No, but since they made the title game and were eight points closer than anyone else was to UWW the entire tournament, it makes them a pretty legitimate No. 2.

CC: Yes, I am. Have been pretty public about my job-seeking status.

Yes... thank you for that - it was dirty work... and it wasn't like Scranton was trailing Middlebury during that game.  Like any human being - it is nice to get the praise without the dig.  The D3 games were great competitive games that made it great for the fans... even the championship was won by only 3!

I thought you were going to break into a Boy George song.

Did you get your orange #18 jersey yet?

And by orange, I mean Broncos... not Orioles.

Perhaps the O's could use Peyton Manning in their rotation to help with your 90-win prediction (was that for one season or two?)

I posted the orange jersey with his name on it on facebook. Makes me sick...

I'll ignore that...for now.
No, I can't. It's this year, watch.

It could be worse, you could be a Saints fan!

Or a Jets fan. Now NFL Network is saying the league will be looking into the Jets, Ravens and Steelers. The three biggest thug teams
