The first definition of "threatening" I saw was to make a hostile or deliberate frightening manner. The second definition is intention to cause harm. Third is causing someone to feel vulnerable or at risk. Krewson's possible actions are far from being hostile. I was just wondering why Hoosier chose the word threatening. Have you got nothing better to do? cgeldmacher, brianstl and BIG BILL FAN like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
courtside Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 CBS Sports has SLU preseason #31. Says SLU has a stacked team, Sweet 16 potential, returning top 8. It referenced shooting, both poor FT, and that SLU didn't rank in top 100 in either 2 or 3 point %. Yet, SLU still had a strong season. Shore up the shooting and they can have a big season. https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/college-basketball-1-357-rankings-here-are-the-projected-best-68-teams-for-the-2020-21-season/ cgeldmacher likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are going to criticize a particular word, one that was used correctly in many people's judgment, it would be good to make sure you type "may require" instead of "requiring" if you really mean "may require." There is a very big difference between the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a very big difference between the two. I wasn't being critical - as I said I was just wondering why that word was chosen. I thought the "may" was understood given the context that the word "threaten" was being used. Who thought it was used correctly is immaterial especially given that I gave 3 definitions that were just the opposite. Obviously I will not get answer to my original question so I am moving on.

Taj79 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Things are coming out .... the ACC released its schedule. Duke says no fans at Cameron. One of the West Coast leagues announced a 20-game conference season with 5 home duets and 5 road duets. https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/30292072/mountain-west-20-game-schedules-based-two-game-series https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/30291846/acc-announces-conference-basketball-schedule-starting-dec-12 https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/30291493/duke-fans-hoops-games-due-coronavirus Soon.

almaman Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 sports so far in CV-19 era have been as good or better than normal with tv coverage and I see no reason it should not be same for mcbb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is 1 of the Richmond games and the Dayton game end up on ESPNU or ESPN2 with the remaining 3 on the +. Would be sweet if it's more. I would be completely shocked if FSMW didn't pick up the remaining games. Although looking back on previous seasons, did FSMW do any conference games? I honestly can't remember. I know they do the bulk of non-con games... Tough schedule I love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NH Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Which ESPN variant has our games probably depends on how the NBA schedule shakes out. I believe 4 of our ESPN games are on Friday night, which is usually one of ESPN’s NBA nights. If they aren’t playing for any reason I could see us being on the main ESPN network.

I honestly can't remember. I know they do the bulk of non-con games... Tough schedule I love it! 4 of the ESPN games are Friday nights. The 5th is a Saturday. I could see the Saturday St. Bona game on ESPNU or ESPN+ but the 4 Friday night games will almost certainly be on TV (ESPN2 or ESPNU being the most likely as the NBA is on ESPN on Friday nights). ESPN2 has shown A10 Friday night games on TV for the past few years. We are one of the top draws on the conference this year and our tv package reflects it. People should be happy about this instead of assuming the worst that we are on the internet where only die-hards know where to find us.

johnbj14 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Anything listed as a Friday night game on ESPN will likely be aired on ESPN 2 or ESPN U before ESPN+. The A10 has had Friday night games on those channels for several years now, and it would seem this year is no different. kshoe likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowboy Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 -wow, two Saturday home conference games (I get the Friday's) and we are done with Bonnie in the month of January, unusual -so we'll be 14-0 going to SVU on Feb 19 to demolish them to make it 15-0 - The Life of a Billiken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bauman Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 What I don't like is opening the A 10 with a game against the Dukes. We did that last year and it didn't work out so well. I worry about them more than any of the other A 10 teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The games with no one listed usually end up being carried by some combination of FSMW and/or ESPN+. This is some really solid national coverage. I don't recall seeing that much ESPN or CBSSN in recent years. The boys will have a nice big stage to work on this year. Also, I like how that the schedule announcement above doesn't feature JGood or French. It says, "We're deep, and we're coming for ya."
