AtlantaTiger 202 Report post Posted March 8, 2020 Had to do a little homework on our last appearance in the NCAA tourney in 1991. Guess I had forgotten that we played Ohio State. If there’s anything in the way of a silver lining, “Towson State” definitely had the best showing of all the 16 seeds that tournament, giving #1 OSU all it could handle and losing by the smallest margin (11 pts). Please, please, please, let this be the year we get back there. Go Tigers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mat1992 2,228 Report post Posted March 8, 2020 If you think the CAA is bad (ranked 16th among 32 conferences), the old ECC was one of the worst conferences in the nation. We were as low-major as you could get. But once the lights turned on, that Devin Boyd, Terrence Jacobs and Chuck Lightening 1991 team was afraid of nobody. We just didn't have the size to compete with the big boys, so we would always end up just short. Same thing with the 1991-92 team that was basically the same squad minus Devin (injured), but with the addition of 6-3 Dunbar guard Scooter Alexander. We could hang with just about anybody but couldn't close. They won the last ECC title in 1992 over Hofstra, but could not go to the tournament because the league wasn't eligible due to all the defunctions. We have never even come close to sniffing a title since then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They won’t win one this year either Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They won’t win one this year either I think Hofstra is capable, despite their terrible half against Drexel. Depends on the matchup. If they get Kansas, they are done. But they are not getting a 16. Maryland? Maybe as a 14 or 15. Maryland beat them earlier in the season by just 11 at home. While the CAA might not have a VCU or a GMU, this group of high-majors is ripe for some first round and second round upsets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
