Re: Path to the Dance

I'm in the camp that we have to win everything up to the Championship game - and if that last game is a loss, it has to be close.

On a side note - Seth Greenberg was talking about Michigan State's chances during halftime of the Mich. St- Iowa game. He was talking about the Spartan's good wins ...

Re: Loyola joining A-10

Some of you know that I am a Fordham grad - undergrad and graduate school. I also had Loyola floor seats in the old Gentile for about ten years - so Loyola is my adopted college team (DePaul is way too much like St. Johns - and I teach at DePaul!!)

So - let me officially welcome you to the A 10 ...

Loyola To The Big east?

No, I don't know anything ( about this; well, actually, a lot of things..)

If Loyola makes a bit of a run and Moser stays - would the Big East consider expanding its foot print in the Midwest by adding Loyola and St. Louis? Both are basketball first, Catholic schools, and have had solid runs over ...

Re: Georgia Tech Preview and Game Thread -- 03-19-2021

It also seems that Georgia Tech really should have dropped out - they knew by Sunday something was not right; confirmed by Monday. If you follow contract tracing rules - all of the team has been exposed. That potentially exposes every single opponent in the first weekend at least.

Re: NCAA Tournament Seeding

A school I'm curious to see what happens too is Colgate. 13-1 in the Patriot league... Net: 7 & KenPom: 82. With such a week schedule and such a disparity with these two ratings... what happens to them if they don't win their conference tournament?

There's no way Colgate makes it if they don't ...

Re: NCAA Tournament Seeding

Loyola now ranked 18 in both polls. I can't see how the bid is higher than a 7.

Re: 2020-2021 Ranking

Re: PORTER MOSER

I would hope Moser would look at the example of Dan Monson ( sp?) - the guy who built up Gonzaga and leaves for greener pastures in Minnesota. Mark Few takes over, and few years later Monson is out in Minnesota. meanwhile, Few has a dynasty at Gonzaga .
