CenHudDude Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 The A-10 finished 12-1 on the day. There were a lot of buy games though and not everyone won by what they should have. Not sure anyone improved their NET much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taj79 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I think Fordham is a bad team. They rode two scorers last year who are gone. La Salle is still the same …. Brickus and Brantley with a little help from Shepherd. But the really bad thought? Both look at least twice as good as us. Watched Geedubya beat VCU in Richmond. We can’t play with them either.

Taj79 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 @willie: La Salle got smoked at St. Joes. Why only ask me about them when they win wills? Fun Phy is a great coach and he is playing a man down w/o Anton Gill but Gill ain’t THAT good. They played a weak OOC. Have had the chance to watch Duquesne a few times. Dumb basketball team with low basketball IQ. Clark and Grant shoot way too much and Mahorcic is awful. Tre Williams playing out the season quite disinterested. But we get them at Palumbo. Davidson looks like a basketball team from the Deep South pre-integration. Not good when Grant Huffman is your go-to guy. Fordham plays good defense. The Bonnie’s are still searching for themselves. Still think this goes Dayton/Joes/Bonnies but VCU has some good athletes and Geedubya has two good freshmen in Johnson and (some 6’7” guy who’s name start with Bee). We already lost to Mason. We are a PIG team for sure —-likely with La Salle there Willie. TheA_Bomb likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taj79 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 @willie: Mrs. Taj and I went down with COVID some time after New Year's Eve. Have no clue where it came from. And it wasn't the cheap COVID, it was the heavy duty kind. Took the full ten days quarantine and then some, expecially fore her. She's still fighting deep rooted coughs. I'm back but the fatigue was so much it made me not care to post much. That and the fact the board is pretty much unreadable and constantly combative tells me I don't need this shite. Piss ants hiding behind the anonymity of a message board going all bravado on other folks is pretty useless and juvenile. Why share my amazing insights here (wink-wink). On the national scale, the A10 is a bunch of middling to low D1 players, including Dayton. Some will say (Jeff Rothstein) that their OOC record was great, something like a .669 winning percentage. I say go look at who they played. They lost every game of consequence with ranked teams except the Joeys beating Villanova. And that's a rivalry game. I don't see the A10 getting more than one bid unless Dayton runs the regular season table and then gets upset in Brooklyn. But Dayton is a loooooong way from running the table and DaRon Holmes is no Obi Toppin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Elrond Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 The A10 really isn’t very good this year. Collectively, the A10 is 5-27 against Q1 teams per the NET ratings. The only teams in the A10 who have won a Q1 level game are Dayton (won 3), Richmond (won 1) and, interestingly enough, Fordham (won 1).

I think that's really why this season shows our weakness right now as a program. We're toward the bottom in a conference where everyone is having a pretty poor year, relatively speaking.

Soderball Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 The a10 should get zero bids. This is horrible basketball. VCU is horrible lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRN Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Another game in Dayton where the visiting coach gets in the middle of the play because he’s too far on the court. Refs need to start a zero tolerance policy and dole out technicals. Maybe getting ejected will manage jokers that can’t stay on the sideline. A player is going to get hurt.
