I'm pumped, my conference is sending 4 teams to the NT for the first time I've been here...3 of us should get high seeds. Now if only I could get past the first 2 rounds...

breum, is St. Scholastica running some sort of experiment where he recruits only people who cannot shoot FTs, and then refuses to practice them? his best FT shooter is a C-, and he's a walk-on.

Interesting note on the postseason, for the first time since camrun began his tenure, Anderson will be sitting home this postseason. What a run he's had there, I know I've modeled some of my Chicago teams off of what I gleamed his NT championship success upon.

In my run for a 10th straight sweet 16, we certainly were not given an easy path as a 4 seed. G/l in the NT, I'm hoping we've got enough for the final 4, perhaps even more, but as is always the case, there are probably 20+ teams in D3 wooden that have the look of a final 4 squad.

I have no clue...I'll ask him, but I doubt it.

i have to assume he isn't doing it on purpose, but the odds are pretty low that you wouldn't have a single player above a D...

good luck to Neumann and Alvernia and the Big5 Tourney teams in the NT - just didn't have enough players reloaded from last year's runner up team to make it...lost 3 games by 3 pts or less to NT teams that would have probably been the difference...i felt i was a PIT all along though so wasn't too upset about it

I think he just is ignoring FT practice wronoj. He's not used to NT action where it makes a huge difference...

How the hell does Manchester finish 22-6 with #10 RPI against the #22 SOS, go 15-1 in the #3 ranked Heartland conference, and get a #7 seed.... (27th seeded team overall).......... HORRENDOUS... JUST ABISMAL ENGINE RESULTS! As bad as VK's thread about being the #8 RPI and getting a #6 seed.

Ugh.............. tired of that crap.

I am too lazy to look at all the other brackets, but mine has 7 of 8 remaining teams from the dynasty list: Hartwick, Maranatha BB, NCWC, Montclair St, W Conn St., Neumann, and SUNY-Maritime.

Whoever comes out of this one will have earned it.

can't believe he shot 7 from 40 from behind the arc, mostly because I can't believe he shot 40 3's....but anyways.



The only dynasty teams in the South Bracket are me(1), Chicago(4), and Eastern Oregon(6). If we both win the next game, I'll be matched with Chicago in the sweet 16, and then the winner of that might get Eastern Oregon.

There I fixed it for ya

Seriously, I haven't looked around, but it seems like there was a ton of the 550ish, 560ish rated teams in our bracket. Perhpas a slight step down in overall talent, but certainly enough talent to make the final 4 or win the whole thing. The longer I'm in D3 wooden, the more I'm convinced that there are no easy brackets. Lots and lots of great D3 squads here.

agree with this-- if you have a good season you might have a 1st-round game you think should be an easy win. But never more than that. too many good, even teams with long-term, good coaches.
