The competition thread

I don’t see parallels to Weir. Everything was fine with Clark…been playing all along, made the trip to RI, then was held out and within hours was off the team. Seems pretty clear something major “university-related” was revealed after the team left for RI, and he was a goner.
 
Lol. Now do that with every team out there and see how many resumes "tank" today. And, resumes don't cherry pick. So, you have to look at the good with the bad. But, obviously I should not count on you doing that with your cute little angry posts today. Laughable.
 
La Salle has taken out the preseason #1, #2, and #3 teams in the conference, yet they’re currently down 10 to Fordham. o_O
This kind of sums up college basketball this year. I'm sure we'll see a lot more where that came from.
 
Its only joke because this team isn't going anywhere this year. Its going to take several years to be relevant again. Its amazing how you just don't understand.

What is amazing is we haven't played in over a week, and you post negative after negative post today on numerous threads just because LaSalle lost. So, I guess that means it would also be fine by you if someone posted a bunch of positive posts and got angry at others if Ky., Loyola, or Davidson wins?
 
I am done debating with VT4700. Continue to believe a different result will happen. History shows over several years that Mooney can't lead us to the tournament. We aren't making it this year. The resume is a total dumpster fire and even if on the bubble. VCU is going to beat us in the tournament. Eliminate us from the NCAA tournament. The other tournament won't probably happen because of Covid. I am not comfortable going to the NIT or the CBI finishing below expectations is what we do. I am done with this blog. Because you support Mooney no matter what happens. There is ZERO chance we are making it to the NCAA tournament.
 
The NCAA bubble is going to be incredibly soft this year. Which means so many teams will hang around, maybe including UR. If there actually is a tournament, I suspect the power 5 will gobble up nearly all the bubble buds because the NCAA needs eyes and we know a team like Duke or Kentucky draws more eyes. Just seems that if there’s a tournament, that UR is going to have to be well inside the line to make it.

Kentucky will finish under .500 and not be eligible for an at-large berth. It must win the SEC tournament. The same fate may await Duke, which will not get in at .500 or even a couple games over .500.
 
UMass is pausing all athletic activity for at least 14 days.

Got to wonder for A10 Tournament 1) how many teams are going to be Covid Clear, and 2) what the seeding structure will look like. I thought I read earlier this week that the conference was going to have an answer this week for 2) since such a differential in numbers of games teams will have played. Did I miss the decision, or has it not come out yet?
 
Loyola looking decent up 7 against Evansville late, but there's other breaking news from the MVC...Drake's undefeated season is in trouble against a bad Valpo team, down by double digits with under 3 to play.

Hofstra looks like they're going to bounce back against Drexel to get the split.
 
Loyola wins, Drake loses...both teams currently with one MVC loss. Drake has a midweek makeup game at UNI, while Loyola looks to be off until the Drake series next weekend. Loyola has won 10 straight games.

the guys down the street go on the road to Dayton and take one 76-67

Took a game we were due to play. Vcu keeps taking our lunch money. Some year you’d think it would upset our leaders at UR.

They r ahead of us in the hierarchy. They’ll beat Bonnies at home too. When they do our game may just be a luxury for them. Yet we need desperately to sweep & may only get them once. Or zero knowing us.
 
Wait, people honestly think he’s going to leave after two years at vcu and get drafted?!? Thanks for the laugh! I needed that one. But hey, Cal Bowdler was the eighth pick in the draft one year too, so I guess anything is possible.

Come talk to me when he’s a first-round draft pick. If that happens, it will be the weakest draft in nba history. Last I knew, the nba wasn’t super interested in guys built like Gumby who need 14 shots a game to score 19 points and who average 3 rebounds and 1 assist, but maybe times have changed.

Lion good news Bones Hyland is definitely going to be a 1st rounder now! Sorry EL could not resist.

Let me go on record and say I hope he does not return. That can only help us. As a UR fan all we have these days is Schadenfreude.

I repeat: you might want to take a look at the NBA mock drafts before you decide to look stupid. Thanks!

Your jealousy is adorable, though.
