TSU88 1,074 Report post Posted February 29, 2020 We should probably table this conversation until after the conference tournament. He has a good, not great, regular season conference record, since his 2nd season. He has a lousy conference tournament record.

The gap in the have and have nots in hoops has gotten large lately and will continue. A conference that wins 1-2 ncaa tournament games in a decade. Caa hasn’t. I guess if you count jmu 16-16 matchup they did. Ncaa units are valuable to the conference. The final four and a10 defector units are gone. If any time besides Hofstra doesn’t win the tourney, we will probably get a 15 seed. Socon has took our spot recently. Caa is a good low major conference now. Sorry, but it’s the truth.

mat1992 2,237 Report post Posted February 29, 2020 The CAA ranks 16 of 32 conferences in the latest RPI. That is still mid major and yes, the SoCon is 13. America East is 21, the definition of a good low major conference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mat1992 2,237 Report post Posted February 29, 2020 In more important news, Charleston leads Drexel at the half 39-32. An upset here and we’re in the three spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mat1992 2,237 Report post Posted February 29, 2020 But at least Drexel is in the game down 5, early in the second half, while Hofstra is up 65-38 over JMU. Of course, Drexel's defense can make anybody look good. They made us look like Duke for one half. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mat1992 2,237 Report post Posted February 29, 2020 Oh well, down five late. Looks we’ll need a win over NE tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TuTigers2012 1,071 Report post Posted February 29, 2020 So we avoid Charleston until the finals if we make it that far. They will be 4 with a win by us tomorrow or a 3 with a loss Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
