    -what about The Plan?

    Probably safe to place in the “Non-implemented” file. Is the UHSP job open? What’s Harris-Stowe’s coaching situation like? Seems like they’ve been struggling of late.

    I didn't think they played particularly well today and the scoring seemed to be in streaks. But they defended really well in the fourth and pulled it out. They'll have their work cut out for them against VCU. Go Bills!

    ETA: I didn't realize the Bills scored 30 points in the 4th quarter til I looked at the box score. Wow!

    30 points in the quarter to pull it out is great, but 21 turnovers? Do that tomorrow and get torched.

    What GW's win over St. Bona means is that we are again tied with them at the dead bottom level of the A10. 

    C’mon, give the team credit, we’ve still got the tiebreaker on them, so we’re 14th!! We’re gonna get payback on those Fordham Rams in the PIG, then the 6th seed better look out.

    I have been reading page upon page about how bad our defense is and how incapable the players perform. I really want to make the point that the deficiencies we find in our players should be laid upon the poor work done by Ford and the coaching staff. They cannot train these kids properly and therefore the kids cannot perform well during the games. All of these problems can be dealt with with a new coaching staff.

    Just as likely is they’re not quick enough to defend properly.

  5. If next year’s roster to start the season looked like the following, do you think it’s a winning roster? For the sake of discussion, let’s say there’s a new coach on the sideline to take Ford out of it. Also assume that everyone is full go to start the season and Magassa is eligible.

    So the returnees are Jimerson, Eziwero, Parker, Hughes, Medley, Thames, van Bussel, Zhang, Curcic, Magassa, and add in the high school commit. That leaves two schollies open. Assume we get two 3-star level players from the portal at the one and four who are ready starters. 

    Would that roster make you optimistic about the season and does it have the potential to get the double-bye or even win the A-10?

    Davidson's a small school, the pool of women's players is smaller than men's. Just based on assumptions I'm making based on those two facts, I would bet you're not going to find anyone that fits the bill in the general student population. That leaves you with current student athletes. Volleyball, soccer and softball players are your likely options. Softball is in season and women's soccer is kicking off spring season. That leaves volleyball. Now you have to find a player who is good enough and willing within that group of 15 women and hopefully their coach is cool with it. Oh and right now they only have 5 healthy players, so you're looking for at least 2. 

    Davidson’s student enrollment is 1950. Going back to the Lefty Driesell years from ‘60-69, it’s amazing they’ve competed as well as they have, given their lack of facilities and high academic standards.
