I wonder if they will break their own record for the lowest rated college basketball games ever on network television.

Didn't the defending national champs just play in front of 3,500 strong at Houston?

Are you comparing a U, if Houston home game to a "flagship" conference program in "the greatest city in the world" playing on a Saturday afternoon????
 
Why aren't they at MSG? (A: not worth it)

Hard to believe this is the same Houston team that sold out the Astrodome in 1968 for a game vs UCLA (Elvin Hayes vs Lou Alcindor).
But, getting back to your thoughts, Sean, I would rather be a defending champ, playing anywhere, than be a fan of a team that hasn't won an NCAA tourney game since the late 90's.
 
Yo nick,
No argument there. I just find it funny that a fan of a conference full of bandbox gyms is pointing out a bandbox gym

Wait a minute, ZLS. You can't expect a Pee Cee men's BB game to compete with a game where Okie U's Sherri Coale is getting some significant camera time. You're being unfair, here. Sherri has always been a babe, and now she's a cougar babe. Nobody should be ridiculed for getting smoked in the TV ratings by her.
 
You do realize that you are comparing prime time on a major sports network to a weather induced reschedule on a Thursday afternoon, right?

Why don't we compare crowd size at the BE tourney vs the AAC tourney this year?

There ought to be enough unemployed drunk pee cee alumni frequenting bars in Providence and its environs on any given Thursday afternoon to beat out most any women's BB telecast in the TV ratings.

Not everyone is scholarly enough to get into a prestigious state school and have pay twice as much too attend a private school that will accept them

What state school are you referring to? Check the numbers. UCONN is tougher to get into than PC.

My buddy couldn't get in to UConn and ended up at PC. Why would anyone want to go there? I guess the best you can say is that the Dominicans aren't as insufferable as the Jesuits.
 
Storrs Agricultural College seems like a perfect fit with the Memphis's, Cincinnati's and Houston's of the world. I feel sorry for Tulane actually.

The future for the former "Storrs Agricultural college" is still a hell of a lot better than that of a tiny Catholic college these days.
Academically & athletically.......

There's a great little bistro on Thayer Street I always try to hit up whenever I'm in town. The name's escaping me at the moment.

I'll disagree. Only one institution accepts GEDs. I'll give you a guess which one.

Congrats on getting your GED! Way to hang in there, we knew you could do it.

The public institution is ranked #59 in U.S. World & News. The small Catholic college (not University) isn't in the top 100.
As far as accepting GED's, the student would have to have at least a 3.0 average at 2 years in a community college before acceptance. My guess is it would be the same for that small Catholic college.
BTW, that state U has received 4 billion from the state over the past 15 years. Plus another 2.5 billion just approved for the next 10 years. And the small Catholic college has received???
