As of the morning of 2/23:
  1. Summitt . 1098
  2. Tara .. .. 980 + 24 =1004 (nxt: 2/24 @OSU, 2/25 @Or , 3/2 cnf_T)
  3. Hatchell . 975 + 14 = 989 (nxt: 2/23 @NCS, 2/26 Duke, 3/1 cnf_T)
  4. Geno .. .. 955 + 27 = 982 (nxt: .. .. .. , 2/25 Memp, 2/27 @USF, 3/4 cnf_T)
  5. Stevens .. 957 + 24 = 981 (nxt: .. .. .. , 2/26 cnf_T,3/3 cnfT*)
  6. Stringer . 971 + 06 = 977 (nxt: 2/23 @NW , 2/26 OhSt, 3/1 cnf_T)
  7. Conradt .. 900

Earliest these could happen:
  • GA ties Htchll -- NCAA Trnmt (My guess: NCAAs)
  • GA wins 1000th -- Dec 2017 (My guess: Dec 2017)
  • Hatchell @1000 -- Postseason (My guess: Dec 2017)
  • Stevens @ 1000 -- Dec 2017 (My guess: Jan 2018)
  • Stringer @1000 -- Dec 2017 (My guess: 2018-9 season)
  • TaraV ties PHS -- 2019-20 season
 
Hatchell & CVS lose again. Heels fall to 14-14 with only Duke game remaining. Would need a win there or wins in at least 2 ACC_T games to get a postseason bid.

When does the window close for Hatchell winning 1000 this year close? She needs 11 wins to get there. UNC has one regular season game left. Assuming a win, that means 10 more wins are needed. For the strongest programs, the post-season has generally been a maximum of 9 games (3 in conf. tourn. and 6 in NCAAs) which would already have excluded Hatchell from winning 1000 this year. So what's the maximum # of games UNC could play (and, therefore, win) in the ACC tourney?

If there are any justice in this world Hatchell's record should get a major hit once the NCAA"s hammer comes down after the season is over.
Although Stevens is staying close to this bunch, her record is not on the same plane. As it was mentioned earlier on this board, she is a D-2 coach. Although at one time she was a D-1 coach for 3 years, the NCAA rule requires a continuous 5 year stint in D-1 division to roll over D-2 or D-3 records.

When is Tara going to show up here? She still owes us a rematch. Oregon may put a hurt on Stanford during the play-off which is good for Uconn.

Actually, doesn't the ACC tournament use a double-bye format? Which, in a 15-team conference, would mean that the bottom 6 teams could hypothetically play up to 5 games. UNC is currently tied for 12th in the conference.

Yes, but I don't think you're gonna have to worry about it.

Their game on 'Sunday is still regular season. Pairings for the conference tournament are not set yet.

I'm not the slightest bit worried. I was just being a fact nerd. :)

UNC will have a good chance of winning its first game against another ACC bottom-feeder. After that, they'll likely have to play the #5 or #6 seed in the conference tourney, which will probably be Louisville, NC State or Syracuse. This game will be all the more important for UNC because winning it would make them postseason-eligible and allow them to receive a WNIT bid. That said, they'll be very unlikely to win that game, although they did beat NC State earlier this year.

That ship may have sailed shortly after the USS Tennessee. There are now at least three other strong PAC12 teams to link up with, should UCONN wish to plumb the delights of our Left Coast. Corvallis and Seattle are beautiful in the Fall.

Also, no big deal closing the deal with a Stanford victory. Tennessee won the last three matchups with UCONN, and since them UCONN has made the past nine final fours. I remember once when Jimmy Connors was asked why he wasn't ever playing top-ranked John Newcombe. His reply: "I don't know, but every time I reach a final, he's not there." Been a long time between Finals for Stanford and Tennessee

If anything, we should be chasing down LaSalle, who won all three games with UCONN. Geno, the good Philadelphia native, must hear Dave "The Zink" Zinkoff yelling "Gola goal, Gola goal, Gola goal" in his sleep.

Adios to the tree. Bring on the Explorers!

Mr. Plebe.. You are a good and informed poster.. But You have much more confidence in the heels than most do. After the ram stomping they will most likely received later today.. They will be either the 14 or 15 seed in the tourney. I can't name one team in the conference that I would favor them in a game at this point. Most likely they will be playing without their second best player Watts for the rest of the season. Their best player Kea is also banged up.

When did Stephanie Watts get hurt? I would've considered her, not Kea, their best player.

Not quite sure.. I know she didn't play the last game vs State.. Not sure if she played vs Louisville either. Watts has the higher ceiling... But Kea is more consistent in my opinion.

Hmm, let's see here. This is currently the bottom of the ACC:
11. Pitt, 4-11 (hosts Syracuse)
12T. Virginia Tech, 3-12 (plays at Boston College)
12T. North Carolina, 3-12 (hosts Duke)
14. Clemson, 3-13 (bye)
15. Boston College, 2-13 (hosts Virginia Tech)

Assuming they do indeed get stomped by Duke ;) then UNC would be 3-13 and tied with Clemson. If BC beats VT, then it will be a four-way tie for 12th-15th. If VT beats BC, then it's a two-way tie for 13th-14th.

What is the ACC's tiebreaker procedure for 2-way and 4-way ties in determining tourney seeding?

Not sure about four way tiebreakers.. But considering the heels have just beaten UVA.. State, and the wasps this season.. They probably lose all the possible tiebreakers :cool::cool:

Actually.. Artichoke put up a good thread a few days ago with a link that enables u to sort out all the conference tournaments and seedings

Whoa. I went and found it, and it works like a charm. And yes, it's 14th or 15th -- assuming Duke doesn't screw it up!

An otherwise excellent presentation continues to be haunted by an incompleteness: specifically, the missing bullet point. I speak, of course, of the last bullet, always implied but never included. Omissions, when glaring, needn't necessarily be articulated. In fact, their very absence can draw attention to them more dramatically than their inclusion. And, in this case, adding an additional bullet would only demand a further bullet-ed inclusion.

As these milestones pile up, and accomplishment curve intersects accomplishment curve, I am reminded of other magnificent achievements happening virtually simultaneously: Newton and Leibniz inventing the calculus; Banister and Landy breaking the four-minute mile. I, myself crossed the equator and international date line within minutes of each other. And so it is that, even as Tara marches toward inevitable win 1099, another approaches that same fabulous feat. Yet, there is no bullet.

Wait a minute, now besides a Webster dictionary I also have to use a Berlitz German translation book to understand the posts? My brain is starting to hurt. I should just wait until the games start at noon before I log on...:confused:

I wonder if the ALWAYS forward thinking personnel in the UConn basketball office, in conjunction with the staff in the advertising and media departments have calculated about when (the range/spread of games) Geno could win his 1000th, and will take proactive measures to assure that those games will be played at home next year, like Tara did for hers. This picture says it all. She had a large number of former players on hand to witness the game, and join in the post game celebration. It's unlikely Geno would receive any recognition or crowd appreciation on the road from fans of a team he just beat, especially if it was a blowout. :mad:

I believe THAT is a milestone that would be best observed, played, and properly celebrated at home!! You only win that 1000th game one time. Let's do it at home, so that the fans in attendance (the game should be sold out) can share in the moment and after glow, and help Geno, his staff and team, celebrate this monumental occasion. I'm confident the powers that be will get this right. :rolleyes:

What "proactive measures" did Tara take to ensure her 1000th win would occur at home?

Tara didn't do anything. I'm assuming that whoever does the scheduling for her team calculated what game(s) she would win her 1000th game on, and scheduled them at home as the schedule would allow.
I re-read my comment. It should have read "as was done for Tara". The OOC schedules are scheduled by each school's basketball office with the final approval of the head coach. The OCC schedule only consists of 13 games. vowelguy predicts that Geno could win #1000 on Dec 27th. That could be the last, or next to last OOC game UConn schedules before conference play begins. Those two could be scheduled as home games.

The conference games are scheduled by the conference schedulers, and I don't believe the member schools have any input in those schedules. If Geno's 1000th win would fall outside of the OOC schedule, then the chances of his winning his 1000th at home would be 50-50. If it's done on the road, I'm sure a small ceremony will take place before the next home game, to commemorate the milestone. Nothing like what would take place if it's done at home. That is the point I was attempting to make. Everything I suggested should have been prefaced by IF POSSIBLE.

Sorry to stay on this, but if we recognize that the schools have little control over the conference schedule, then how did Tara's staff exert influence over which conference games (including win #1000) would be played at home?
