Re: Up next: Butler

I've seen two games, Presby and Butler. I'm no expert on our team. But to reiterate what others have said, our defense is shockingly bad. Adams did not have nearly as much room as he did against Presby (though I see he still rushed for 108 and averaged 5.7). Didn't notice if Butler was bringing a sa...

I guess before you post something it pays to read the prior posts.

Re: 2024-25 Schedule

I like playing former SoCon teams ETSU and VMI. I wish we could play former SoCon teams that were closer to Charlotte-App St, Wofford, UNC-G. Elon. Atlantic 10 makes it hard to do road trips, with the exception of Richmond schools (not easy there, either) so a couple of drivable non-conf games would...

Re: Trivia, but not trivial

As City Cat will often point out, we haven't had a white scholarship player from an NC public high school in 50 years. We tried hard to get Will Johnson, Jackson Simmons (who walked on at UNC, highly irking Bob McKillop) and Hunter Tyson. We just recently lost out on Colt Langdon. There are probably...

Re: EVY FOR THE BRONZE!

I don't think the Red Bull money could be characterized as NIL, since she doesn't compete in a varsity sport.

And she has total immunity from the NCAA.

Well I'm not worried about Drexel or USD, whether that's San Diego or South Dakota.

Re: Portal

Braeden Smith to Gonzaga.
He's going to redshirt next year.

This was my one hope for us being an upper tier A10 team next year. Maybe I'll be wrong; hope so.

Re: Portal

I think it is a lock that Brizzi would have started next season, given what we have.

We may get a transfer who will start, and-if we do-you have to take into consideration whether we would have gotten that transfer if Brizzi were still here.

Longwood is quite a comedown from Villanova.

Re: Clunie Email re NIL

Or we could not play the game and have D3 athletics. We easily could have gone there. As for me, I like being an alum/fan of a small, academically rigorous school that plays D1 basketball in a really good conference. Makes us unique. And by that a mean in a category of one. Wake Forest is small, but...

Re: Portal

From the Field of 68: More than 1,600 men’s college basketball players have entered the transfer portal since it opened on March 17. It closes for undergraduates on May 1. A rough estimate means that about 35%-40% of players are in the portal. Get used to it. The NCAA D-I Council approved changes to...

Re: Portal

I didn't know you lived in Manhattan, or on a base near Manhattan (Ft. Riley?) Was Rolando Blackman on that team? I think he made a shot that brought down a heavy favorite (Oregon St, maybe) in the 1981 Tourney. I hope they weren't wearing two tone purple, as they did for a while in the mid 70s, I t...
