Semi-OT: New England basketball is as good as it's been in a while

[champs99and04]

Harvard, UConn, Providence, and UMass are a combined 21-0. And then there is BC. But between the aforementioned four, you're looking at four likely at large teams. BTW, if you haven't seen UMass, you should do so. They're legit and I'm not sure there are ten better point guards in the country than Chaz Williams.

I think UMass could easily win the A10. VCU isn't as tough as their ranking.

As always there's UConn and everyone else. Only one contender and that's the Huskies

Agree with champs here......saw UMass a couple times, lots of athletic kids, Chaz is the real deal and Lalanne has improved tremendously......could dance for the first time in a long time! Hammered on a real nice New Mexico team......

If Umass wins tomorrow night and Harvard keeps pace they will both be in the Top 25 come early next week.

We could conceivably see an NCAA first second round site with UConn (2) Cuse (3) UMASS (6) PC (7) Harvard (10) BU (14) and Bryant (15). UVM could also win their division. And with Hurley recruiting at URI, they could be in the mix in a few years.

Hopefully, the misery of conference realignment will have some benefits with great first and second round matchups in the NCAAs.
