I do believe that in general the school considers particular talents and intangibles along with GPA average and SAT scores. Otherwise, we would be front loaded with geniuses. This board provides ample evidence to the contrary. "I am wounded but not slain. I will just lie here and bleed a while then...

Look it is what it is you want to criticize me go ahead- but every place or team we compete there are smart academically driven players and on the margin coin flips- just every once in awhile having a player who can help program should be given chance regardless of prior school or background. I jus...

If the day works out according to plan, I'll go watch Mr. Jones play Saturday afternoon. I can post news after that ... but I think you were hoping for "New" commit news. D...

My point is that some fine schools accept kids who meet the NCAA minimums. That is more common now that many top recruits only stay in college one year. They aren't there long enough to flunk out. The point about the W&M graduate is that our admissions staff screwed up. That young man would have gr...

One of our assistant coaches left to become an assistant at Vanderbilt. He was assigned to monitor the academic progress and test scores of one of their recruits. The recruit was taking the ACT. When the assistant coach received the kid's score, he was worried. It was way below what Davidson needed...

The ranking of conferences changes depending on the year and can be calculated using RPI, BPI or KenPom. A10 is usually in the 6-7 range, and so far this year the conference is currently ranked 7th using RPI: http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/bracketology/conference CatsUpNorth - Thanks fo...

A 10 is good, but not a top 5 league. It is closer to a top 5 league than it is to the SoCon. I don’t have a dog in this fight but am curious as to how this is determined. I’d say most five-power conferences (PAC 12, SEC, ACC, BIG 10 & 12) as best overall. If for no reason than that there tends to ...

I think we are doing just fine with the talent. Everyone loves the our players. Davidson is the most unique school in D1 athletics. No matter the outcome of a game a tournament or a season as alums we will always be proud. Yet, Bob and the team outgrew the SoCon and sees its opportunity to become r...

Issue is patriot league caliber players aren't good enough for Davidson if the athletes administration students and alums genuinely aspire to be at the top of A10 and compete for at large bids year in year out. We're seeing it with some of our current players and hopefully some targeted recruits wh...
