November 17, 201312 yr One starter redshirting, another starter violated team rules and DNP, another starter hurt and DNP, another starter not able to go many minutes due to heart condition.........might be a real long year for NKU.
November 17, 201312 yr Which of those reasons listed does Chad Jackson fall under? Redshirted. Yes they could be in for a long year, but from what I understand Coach Bezold knew it would be all along. It's all about the preparation for next year, which is why Chad Jackson redshirted. He wants his freshman to be thrown into the fire and get experience this year; and with Jalen Billups' heart condition, he didn't really expect him to play that much this year regardless.
November 18, 201312 yr They'll compete but likely will be a long season. That's fine, they can't compete for anything until next season anyways.

November 18, 201312 yr Aren't eligible for the NCAA tournament until 2017....What are the eligible for next season? There are some talks about NKU potentially being eligible for the NCAA tournament next year. We'll see if it happens though.
November 18, 201312 yr Aren't eligible for the NCAA tournament until 2017....What are the eligible for next season? Atlantic Sun tournament and there is hope of NCAA from what I've heard
November 18, 201312 yr There are some talks about NKU potentially being eligible for the NCAA tournament next year. We'll see if it happens though. Not sure how, as the NCAA has a required 5 year probation period for all schools making the jump.
November 18, 201312 yr Not sure how, as the NCAA has a required 5 year probation period for all schools making the jump. Which is another reason I thought the move to D1 was a bad idea.
November 18, 201312 yr Which is another reason I thought the move to D1 was a bad idea. Is and was a horrible idea.
November 18, 201312 yr Why? I can't see any negatives to it. * Not enough corporate support. * Not enough of a fan base / season ticket holder base. * Way too much regional competition in College Basketball. * Can't generate enough money to cover increases in travel, scholarships, olympic sports and their scholarships, etc. * Don't control their own building and have a terribly unfriendly lease / management contract with SMG. * No one knows that situation better than Jane Meier and she was 100% against the move. * They would have been better off financially to have stayed in D-II, continued their run of excellence, have a niche carved out that made them unique in this Major Market, instead of being a me-too D-I institution that is, at best, 6th in terms of College Sports coverage in this market.

What's so bad about it? Whatever NKU wants done at the building they get.
