They've played plenty quality teams. What are your qualifications for "quality?"Freemantle was really impressive today but I think they said he averages 15 a game. I was surprised at that, especially because they really haven't played any quality teams thus far.
Glorified mid major? Lol. Xavier is a hell of a basketball program. Dumb commentNot even remotely close. One is a WVU legend and one had a good game against us and plays for a glorified mid-major.

Thus far their strength of schedule is 66th (7.1) in D1. Ours is 46th (8.6). Not too much difference there, but they were 11-2 coming in, only having lost to Creighton and Nova.I may be underqualified to have made that statement. Didn't Donny Marshall say today Xavier needs more Tier 1 wins to make a case for the tourney? Then followed up by saying the BE offers them that chance the next few weeks if they can stay Covid break free? Tito may have said that to me though, I can't remember.
Quad 1, not Tier 1... but not sure exactly how it’s defined at this time.I may be underqualified to have made that statement.

Xavier is far from being a glorified mid major and definitely a top 25 basketball program with some good history and a funny but large and passionate fan base.. gotta respect their programNot even remotely close. One is a WVU legend and one had a good game against us and plays for a glorified mid-major.
Xavier has 3 elite 8s ever and never made a final four. They‘ve been in a high-major league for less than 10 total years. They aren’t top 50 wins all time and barely make the top 75 all time teams in this list. They’re a glorified mid-major (as is 3/4 of the league we’re currently in).
I agree. Hated him so much in that Charleston tournament, feels like a Dooky type player.I never wanted to punch pittsnoggle. I don’t like Fremantle, kid can play though.
