And lost to A-Sun doormat Kennesaw State. That said as nod to the A-Sun they do have the 2nd most wins as a mid-major conference versus the "big 6" conferences. Conference USA has the most going into this week.
Iowa must be terrible too. Wake is another program who is falling off the map in the ACC.
Wake is bad...Dino Gaudio was a horrible choice, and they're paying for it now
FWIW, Bezdelik isn't much better...it'll be a while before they climb out of this hole
Wake is bad bad bad, just terrible. I have not seen an ACC team this bad in a while.
how is that even possible? I know 04 was a really down year but that team was nowhere near as talented as say the 06-07 team with Morrow, Crittenton and Young.Quote:
you look at the team that took them to the Final Four, and it was probably his LEAST athletic team, it blows my mind...Luke Schenscher for Christ's sake!?!?! Mario West was a freshman at the time and a walk-on...and Jarrett Jack was the leader of the team...but you can't win with Thaddeus Young, Javaris Crittenton, Anthony Morrow, Iman Shumpert and Derrick Favors???
well **** just look at it this way;
T. Young-NBA starter
Morrow-NBA player
Crittenton-NBA player
Favors-NBA starter
and he couldnt win the ACC, much less compete nationally with those teams.
thats not mentioning guys like G. Lawal, A. Aminu, Z. Pea****, etc...
Big 10 wins this year after a very entertaining game between VT-Purdue from what I saw.
On the ETSU front, they go into Dayton and get a win tonight behind a solid performance from Justin Tubbs. They spend this month on the road till the 30th with a couple of games against the SEC and a trip to Cancun mixed in.
Speaking of Dayton, the A-10 looks terrible this year. Temple may be the only decent team in the bunch.
Richmond is pretty good, they just beat Purdue within the last week
we (Akron) just picked up a big win tonight @ Detroit, over McDonald's All-American Ray McCallum Jr. and future pro and former Univ. of Indiana standout Eli Holman...first game of a 4-game road trip...
next we play in Chicago @ UIC, then in Philly @ Temple and finally in Minneapolis @ Minnesota
three tough games all on the road, but we started it out well tonight
Every team in the A-10 playing tonight lost but Temple and UMass ( who is still undefeated), but neither win was impressive by margin or who they played. Richmond lost at ODU, but ODU is solid. Unfortunately though, Xavier and St. Joes stink so the A-10 won't have as much depth as usual for this win to look really strong for ETSU.
we picked up a transfer from Xavier in the offseason who, along with Terrell Holloway, wouldve been one of their starting guards this season...he says that Chris Mack isn't liked among many of the players and Crawford and Holloway just flat out didn't respect him at all...Crawford even showed up to practice hungover on "more than 10 occasions" and Mack let it slide
X is a pretty proud program. I dont' see them letting it go down the crapper without a change pretty quickly then if stuff like that is happening.
ODU is super solid, they might win two games in the NCAA tourney.
the challenge ended 6-5, and of course I got all my picks right :p
A-Sun with another quality RPI win with Jacksonville knocking off Florida today.
