Slu let the dogs out? Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Wouldn’t mind one of these FDU players via the transfer portal. These dudes get after it. Shortest team in D-1 giving Purdue and 7’4 Edey trouble. I think FDU has forced more turnovers in this game than SLU did all season.

Purdue is throwing him chest passes and bounce passes that FDU just knock away. He is 7’4 throw him a lob for crying out loud! brianstl, Slu let the dogs out? and CenHudDude like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlarry Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Purdue? More like Pur-Don’t. They lose to a 16 seed this year 15 seed last year 13 seed two years ago. FRUADS.

Bay Area Billiken Posted March 18, 2023 Author Share Posted March 18, 2023 Down goes Purdue️Loses to a team with NET of 301 of 363 D-1 teams. The Big Ten is a joke, along with its other Power 5 overlords, is systematically destroying College BKB by stealing the at large bids via its Power 5 rigged NET system.

cheeseman Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 I don't want to hear any excuses next year FDU was 4-22 and their new coach found enough players to get in and get this win. The tourney has more than one team who improved themselves through the portal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juniorbill76 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 “Anderson’s FDU roster this season was a hodgepodge group consisting of four players from his Division II Aquinas team, three junior college recruits, three freshmen and one walk-on, Brayden Reynolds.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bay Area Billiken Posted March 18, 2023 Author Share Posted March 18, 2023 That was a hilariously ridiculous defeat for Purdue, the B1G and the Power 5. Get those B1G teams on a neutral court and their baked in advantages melt away. Those Purdue players looked scared to death, were reticent to shoot.

The tourney has more than one team who improved themselves through the portal. The crazy thing is they got in on a technicality. Lost the conference championship to Merrimack but Merrimack is ineligible as they’re in year two of transitioning from D-2 to D-1. Merrimack also won the regular season title. FDU will be the only NEC team ever to win a game in the NCAA Tourney without winning their conference championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This game will be the talk of the tournament for the first weekend. Yet for some reason the NCAA would have rather seen 9-22 Minnesota playing Purdue in that matchup. It’s mind blowing to me how they refuse to admit that people like the underdog story. People want to see the small schools finally get a crack at the big schools. We don’t want more crappy power 5 schools we want good non football schools playing to prove themselves.

Look: most of the selection committee and powers that be come from p5 hc and ad backgrounds. What is their goal? To protect p5 hc and ad jobs. What happens to hc and ad at p5 who don't make the tourney? They get fired. What do they do? Protect themselves from getting fired by putting even horrible coaches and ad in the tournament when they are mediocre and don't deserve it. That is the crux of the issue there IMO. There is also the ongoing problem of football tv money consolidation. Honestly maybe we need a federal anti-trust suit at this point. The situation is getting to untenable. If the A10 remains a one bid league going forward SLU basketball is "done" as a competitive venture. We all know it. We're all afraid of it. We are on the wrong side of the big east situation and we are all in danger along with UD and VCU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
