Week of 3/11/24 Games (Conference Tournaments)

[Scoe]

Have there been any court stormings since Scheyer cried about banning them.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

Charleston-Stony Brook has turned into a really fun game for the CAA championship. But there is absolutely zero defense being played.

 

[Scoe]

.500 Wagner we’ll soon to be 16-15 Wagner about to punch their ticket.

 

[Tex-Lager93]

Well, we know who our first round opponent is now…because the committee loves those types of storylines.

 

[BugsyCT]

Wagner wins NEC tourney over Merrimack -almost guaranteed they’ll be one of the early games in Dayton next week.

 

[kobe]

Edwards got one of the more absurd technical foul calls I’ve ever seen against. He and the Cincy big were standing there jawing at each other. Cincy big had one of the most pathetic flops I’ve ever seen, and they rewarded it with two FTs and the ball. Refs really kept Cincy in that game

go watch depaul coward

 

[auror]

Stony Brook vs. Charleston coming down to the last shot. Tie game, Stony Brook ball.

 

[auror]

Seawolf stripped, to OT we go.

 

[runner11]

How does Miami finish with a losing record? Down 16 to BC?

And yet they still have Poplar, Omier and Nigel Pack on the team?

Isaiah Wong and Miller must have been fantastic.

Apparently they came in 2nd for Cam. He would have been enormous for that roster because like you mentioned, there is talent. Sorry!

 

[NJHoops]

So happy for the Wagner program and coach Donald Copeland (St. Anthony and Seton Hall product- pretty good combo, imo) making it to the tournament.

go watch depaul coward

Might do that. I generally only watch the cellar dweller games like Cincy or DePaul if I’ve got nothing going on at work.

 

[huskyjawz]

Stony Brook ran out if gas in OT

10 straight losses for them. Poplar was terrible this year, Matthew Cleveland was terrible, and they really looked like they quit.

me watching pete gillen call a conference tournament game:

I figure this must be a great time of year for you. On the scroll they put a team‘s conference tournament seed where your ranking normally is during the regular season. So yours was 11 Cincinnati vs. 14 West Virginia. You can kind of just turn your brain off and watch it scroll by and pretend you’re still relevant.

 

[uconngb]

go watch depaul coward

Cincy and DePaul have about the same relevance in their respective conferences. They will each be home during the tourney rooting the real teams in their conference on and somehow trying to attach themselves when they succeed. I’m glad you found your common ground!!

 

[auggie22]

Congrats to @kobe on a huge win for the bear kitties today......keeping those fleeting NIT hopes alive by barely beating that WVU juggernaut in front of about 1,200 mostly relatives at the Big 17 play in games this afternoon.

Bcats adding another layer to the legend. Stacking wins like cordwood. I don’t blame their fans for being so arrogant.

 

[Tyler2Rings]

Gonna have to win a game in Dayton first

 

[aceboon]

Gonzaga vs St Marys a good one

 

[ecasadoSBU]

Lost a battle against Charleston tonight. Damnnn. So close though

 

[auror]

10 straight losses for them. Poplar was terrible this year, Matthew Cleveland was terrible, and they really looked like they quit.

Honestly bad job by Larranaga this year. Tried to play the same style with worse players and Pack had a down year.

They had no PG so turned it over a bit, didn't get ORebs since they played small aside from Omier with a stretch 4 who didn't crash, and played a lot of 1v1 ISO with pull up jumpers so didn't draw a ton of fouls.

They had good shooters and shot well generally, but If you're not generating an advantage on 3 of the 4 factors, then you're not schemed well. Plus defense is still bad, which is both scheme and personnel.

 

[aceboon]

Impressive win by St Mary's considering how Gonzaga has been playing

 

[HCCForever]

Like most, I love this time of year in college basketball. I even enjoy watching the Big Sky tournament. The announcers were talking about how passionate Montana is about college athletics. Someday I will witness that for myself. Montana is one of my favorite states as I have spent some time there at Yellowstone and Glacier National Park.

For the third time this year, Georgetown has the opportunity to end Providence’s season. Thats my game to watch tonight

I will be watching Xavier-Butler tonight. I think Butler will take it. The Big East tournament is going to be a crapshoot on some level.
