Where Are They Now?

Butler still has their Final Four $$ coming in and have Big East TV money coming in that will help them out. I like their financials better than ours right now.

Misery loves company. Those numbers seem to suggest that all three schools should've stayed in their previous conferences, but only time will tell.

Not an issue of staying put in our previous conference. Does anyone doubt that we would have been competitive if our coach this year had been OCM vs. Program Destroyer? We would have probably played UNCW in the CAA PIG this year.

I don't think we should've stayed in the CAA ... just noting that all three programs had been highly successful before switching leagues.

Because Luke played at Mason and we have no other appropriate thread, I'll put this here: Louisville is currently beating Rutgers 59-22 with 17 minutes left. Ouch!

Somewhat overstated (big surprise that that is!). More of a reality check to break the "sky is falling" tone of most of the recent posts:

Sagarin has us ranked 139 with the second toughest schedule strength in the A10. That has us directly between the second and third place CAA teams (Towson at 137 and Drexel at 140) and ahead of 5 other CAA teams before you get to UNCW.

Update: Louisville is now leading Rutgers 92-31 with just over two minutes left.

How did we do against the bottom dwellers in the A-10? We struggled against bad teams.

3 of our 4 wins were against the other bottom 6 teams.

Luke deserves his own thread.

Would love to hear from nocliche on this. Did he have some sort of fam 911 or did he just decide to use his talent in the circus.

During his post game news conference after winning the title, Providence coach Ed Cooley gave credit to Al Skinner. I was half expecting him to say his team's run through the Big East tourney was his second best run after his Fairfield's comeback in the CIT.....

Sidd Finch, my avatar, was "born" on this day in 1985. The greatest pitcher to never pitch. You young folk should look him up.

That was one of the greatest SI stories ever. People were putting money down for Mets season tickets based on this story, iirc.
