Bay Area Billiken Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 While I know the NCAA now uses the NET, and the new NET won't be released until tomorrow, FWIW, SLU's RPI (the old rating used) is 44. That would be in the NCAA Tournament under the old system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

State, nor St. Bonaventure or St. Mary's for that matter, two small schools who both got shafted by the NCAA, twice in SMC's case. I've done a couple of comparisons of the NET vs. the RPI, and found that the NET is giving the Power Five two (2) more NCAA At Large Bids than under the RPI. The RPI was bad enough in being Power 5 skewed, but the NET is even worse. It is a self-perpetuating crutch for the Power 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll lead a hunger strike if he isn't all A-10. Here's the argument: He's on one of the better teams He's a two-way player, not just a scorer In A-10 games, He's 8th in the league in scoring and 3rd in rebounding. Gudmundsson is the only other A-10 player top 10 in both He's also 18th in FG%, 13th in assists, 3rd in minutes, and 3rd in steals To me the obvious 1st teamers are Goodwin, Toppin, and Crutcher. Fatts probably 1st team. I would have Tre Mitchell on the 1st team, but cases could be made for Lofton or Gudmundsson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hurt from blowing that 16 point lead may have fueled the controlled anger you saw against Rhode Island today. Except for the late turnovers, these guys were locked in. Rhode Island absolutely needed this win and SLU wouldn't let 'em have it. Zink and Crewsorlose like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crewsorlose Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 This was a great game. Bummed to see Jacobs wilt under the pressure. 5 players in double figures. Bell was unreal. Has was also amazing. J-Good with two terrible live ball turnovers on consecutive plays, but he's so unfazed. Hargrove, prior to VCU, played 4 games and scored 3 points total in sparse minutes. Picks it up and scores in double figures in consecutive games for the 1st time all season. Now it's up to three straight games. He and Collins are team emotional leaders on the 2021-22 team.

How is “bummed to see Jacobs wilt under the pressure” your first takeaway from our biggest win of the year?

Pretty sure he was battling an injury. Definitely good to have him back in full force. 3 for 3 since he has been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
