" ... in the toilet":

Rupp a mere "borderline" racist? How about an out-and-out bigot?

CO-SIGN! I was concerned if i said full-fledged racist Coleman would go nuts and start deleting posts

No, you'd be way off base there ....

cocoh: Your son is a very nice player...stop embarrassing him. He'll earn his rewards without your rants.

Hello Mr. Doc Marc, so what your telling me in defense of your coach is simply W'S AND L'S are all that matter. Your defense of him and that of all the other kool aid drinkers here, (as Mr, Coleman uses so well), does'nt surprise me. None of you scholars have even begun to get the point of my post and as I stated in that post, jealousy and hate for F&M have nothing to do with this. I have much respect, praise etc.. for many I have competed, cheered against, won and lost against for many years. No help for the lost I guess. Enjoy reality as you and the Robinson groupies see it. I feel sorry for you and your view of what's important and right in life.

no, im pretty sure what the Doc is saying is that you dont get to 800 wins over a 40 year career without being a pretty darn good coach.  you also dont get to keep a job long enough or get the players to win 800 games without being a great mentor, leader, person, etc.

Saratoga, first, I'm very capable of knowing what embarrasses my son and I know it's not his Dad giving his honest opinion, (or ranting as you put it), of someone. My son is much more concerned with other, more important things in life right now. Second, your opinion of my son as a player is appreciated and yes I agree, he has already and will continue to earn his rewards as he goes along...Enjoy your evening

so i listened to hoopsville along with about 25 other people while watching the Hall game.  Still didnt get any answers as to why F&M was sent to southern Virginia.  Was it a seeding issue, was it purposeful as a way of sending teams to new places?  I'll have to personally call the Commish and figure it out for my own edification. 

For what its worth, i expect a good interview when you have 72 hours to digest and dig thru the brackets (heck packer and nantz used to get about 72 seconds).  Dave was ok, he knew what he wanted to ask and got to a few key issues. But Pat, he's asking questions about 2012 before Dave can ask 2011 questions.  and 3 times he's going off about how, well WE know the reason but some fans might not.  it was as comical as expected with that guy

  Pat just wanted u 2 hear it from the NCAA instead of him proclaiming it; would have helped if the NCAA had said ahead of time that the teams were going to be sent into other regions at request of the coaches
  Enjoy the weekend;remember, comfort stop by the time u go past williamsburg

quite true Ronk and thanks, but i'm not gonna be able to make the drive.  too far coming from north jersey.

Lusty- At what point will you let this go. If F&M is as good as you say they are than they should have no problem returning from their respective POD victorious. Tell Glenn to schedule better out of conference in region games on the road, win them, and then you will have your home games. Product of poor scheduling. 5-45 was the combined record of F&M's first two opponents with F&M winning both games, They lost to a good St. Marys team by 19, won versus a 16-10 C-M-S team, beat a 13-16 Suny Old Westbury team, lost to a good Ithaca team by 10 and beat a bad Lancaster Bible team. Playing in a down conference, what have they earned in comparison to other teams hosting. Their schedule was weak and loaded with home games, they had no signature wins (IMO), lost by double digits to both NCAA teams they played (Ithaca, St. Mary's) and had bad L's in the year.

Their resume is reletively boring. What signature win do they have? The CC Title game can not count because you said something along the lines that Dickinson would be one and done in the NCAA's so they obviously could not be considered a signature win.

Exactly. Sometimes I wonder if you guys think I just make stuff up. Some people need to have it driven home to them so I emphasized those questions. Sorry if that's not the way you would do it.

in response to the back and forth going on i would say that this site is dominated by alot of love for F&M but i don't have a problem with it. everyone can root and show their support for whatever team in the conference they want. i would also say that fathers of players don't do their kids any good when they hype them up or complain about their awards (or lack thereof). the young men usually do a much better job of handling things like that then their dads, who often have an inflated sense of their kids ability and have difficulty handling things when they don't go their way. many kids don't get to play college ball, or are on a team and get little to no playing time. it's a good idea to keep things in perspective and appreciate what you have. kids who play big minutes from freshman year on are lucky, plain and simple. it is generally because no one is in front of them and that has to do with timing. also, just because a kid scores points doesn't mean he deserves an award at all, in my opinion. i would reward the complete player...the kid who plays D, the one that makes guys better, shoots for good percentage, scores in or near the 15 point zone, makes good decisions...plays hard on both ends of the floor and demonstrates an obvious desire to win.

 One thing for the F+M people traveling to VWC after you come thru the tunnel the exit for VWC is clearly marked as such exit. I think it is exit 282, also after you get off the exit keep filtering to the right hand lane as you will be turning right at the second light.

Well said cent.  What time is the game tonight and who is broadcasting it?

to hoopster:  You make good comments, and if you heard Hoopsville i think you would understand the reason i'm bringing the topic back up is it was specifically discussed with Dave Martin.  I've said all week, here and on other boards, i never expected F&M to host (although a case could be made they should host their pod, but thats not relevant to this discussion).  My issue is with them being sent all the way to Southern Virginia, a nearly impossible hike for F&M fans.  

On the show Martin used the NABC as a cover, without actually saying which coaches wanted more travel.  He then brought up the unrealistice notion of a DVC, FM, Cab and scranton pod, which all fans know you are not gonna get a four team MA pod.  We also have no idea if F&M is at VaWes because that is where they were seeded, or if it was meant (to borrow another posters quote), to let F&M partake in the NCAA's geographical diversity program.

To be fair, i never said those things about Dickinson, but i agree in principal that their schedule lacks any sort of pizzaz.
