The Getslows rolled past the Hokies in the Maui Invitational semis. Obi dominated with 24 points & 8 boards.

 

UD gets the Kansas/BYU winner in tomorrow's championship.

I don’t know when I’m going to get up there this year, but I WILL see Obi Toppin play at UD Arena before he’s gone. The guy is absolutely amazing.

 

I thought this team had potential at the start of the year, but I’ve been conditioned to see doom around every corner. These guys could have a really amazing year if things break right.

Tuned in a bit for the final and I was happy to see Dayton laying the wood to Va. Tech.

I'm not a Dayton basketball historian by any stretch of the imagination, but this team just has a different look. Physically, I mean. They look like a major conference contender.

I'd love to agree... but I've read this book before and I refuse to get my hopes up.

 

I'm excited for the day they don't go 13-1 in November and December before dropping games to Duquesne and LaSalle in February and finishing fourth in the Atlantic 10, but when they do, it'll be the first time in as long as I can remember. To say nothing of the fact that on that last occasion, in 2003, the Flyers took that excellent season to a No. 4 seed in the NCAA tournament... where they were promptly shown the exit by 13-seeded Tusla.

 

Doomed. Absolutely doomed.

Dayton looked superb last night. Really good fast and physical team. Toppin is amazing too.
