Re: Vanderbilt-Michigan NIT Thread

dickinson said they gave it to us....and who can argue that? he also said pregame that he planned a career game....but, in spite of a torrid stretch for him early in the second half, our platoon of liam replacements denied him. he didn't forecast that he'd miss a gimme and also grab the net with the...

Re: Should the NCAA Tournament be expanded?

The answer is not expanding the tournament but rather in eliminating all these automatic bids ! Take the top 64 teams and not just every Tom dick and Harry that wins an inferior conference championship or gets lucky and wins a conference championship tournament. are you talking about furman and pri...

Re: Morehead State just deleted #1 seed Clemson

recent news was that fans have been calling for clemson's coach to be fired since they didn't get into the dance (again). this won't help his cause.

Re: a painful memory

Although I had season tickets, I wasn’t able to get to Lexington. In fact I listened to the broadcast in Ft Lauderdale on Spring break. A friend provided me recently a tape of Larry Munson’s call of the last 2 minutes of the game. I wish I knew how to post it. It is classic Munson. My favorite line...

a painful memory

our game with michigan saturday reminds us of more advanced age of the mideast regional of 1965. the dores were a top-ten team in '64-'65 and faced off against the wolverines in lexington in the elite eight. it's the closest we've ever been to the final four, the outcome was heartbreakingly controve...

Re: Vanderbilt actually a 2 seed in the NIT per VU

The seeding for the top 64 teams is all bull shit, there are at least 25 teams in there that we could beat the hell out of. I know that we needed to win those early games but when you go 10-2 in the last 12 games then you shoud be in I don't care what the NIL or the other grading says. I guess that...

Re: Pop..

Stack blamed it on the margin of the loss to Alabama in an interview with ESPN. Said it’s hard to get a bid with a loss of that degree. that's not all it was, of course, but that makes some sense. i'm with those who think our loss of our best player shortly before selections was likely also a facto...

Re: Vanderbilt vs. Miss State

No truth at all. each of these teams has no argument against Vanderbilt. This is the doings of a BS computer system which by its nature has to compare apples and oranges. The true test is confernece play and head to head, as well as last 10 games of season. Vanderbilt and Coach Stackhouse was so do...

Re: Vanderbilt vs. Miss State

Well their out of conference was a lot better. Scored a couple good wins on a neutral court (one of which being Marquette who is a 2 seed in the tourney), beat all the teams they should have, and only lost one game to Drake who is also in the tourney. If I look at their overall schedule I'd argue t...

Re: Pop..

I recall one year not too long ago Alabama won 22 games with a good SEC record and were promptly rewarded with an NIT bid because they played TOO many cupcakes. There’s a balance as to how to schedule non conference games. isn't that the remedy? play a balanced pre-conference schedule, ready to win...
