Running 2023-24 NCAA Basketball Thread

The conference schedule really is a problem for weighing games by time of year. What if a team is just steamrolling a weak league?

 

Tech is going to be good very soon. Stoudamire seems to have his shit together.

 

Fairly recently built. The old place was your basic low-major gym, but HPU has a ton of money and is pouring it into facilities. That campus is beautiful. Campbell and UNC Asheville made similar upgrades.

 

I did not realize how bad it had gotten for the CAA. Monmouth vs. Campbell? Woof.

 

It's a complete MadLibs conference. They're just trying to add as many schools as possible to withstand departures, but adding programs willy nilly is pissing off the core schools. Campbell is in the absolute middle of fucking nowhere North Carolina. Here was how its non-Thursday home CAA opponents got there:

Hofstra: From Northeastern (approx 750 miles, flew)
Charleston: From Hampton (approx 210 miles)
Stony Brook: From Elon (approx 85 miles)
UNCW: From William & Mary (approx 210 miles)
North Carolina A&T: From home (approx 85 miles)

Will finish in the 300s in KenPom but went 4-1 in those games, losing only to regular season champion Charleston.

 

Bye High Point!



That's what you get for being Trumpist dicks.

 

That’s the tamest cheat sheet I’ve ever seen. You should’ve seen the stuff we had in ours in a MAC school student section.

 

Also, there’s a dude who played with Ja Morant still in college? Give them tenure at this point.

 

How dare you say that about metropolitan Buies Creek.

It just got its first stoplight a few years ago (well, if you don't count the one that was in former coach Billy Lee's office).

Those Camels will get Buies Creek over the hump. Just you wait, BYH.

 

I despise UT with every ounce of my soul. Also Dalton Knecht may single-handedly persuade me to buy NBA League Pass next fall.

 

Boy, I sure hate to see Kansas getting taken to the woodshed by Houston. Just hate to see it.

 

Mount St. Mary's led Fairfield 54-38 at the half. At that point, they were 13-for-19 from outside the arc.

The Mount just lost 96-92, and was 2-for-6 on 3's after the break.
