January 3, 200719 yr X is going to start coming together soon and be the team a lot of people thought they would be.
January 3, 200719 yr X is going to start coming together soon and be the team a lot of people thought they would be. They have Lavender and Duncan. What else do they have? The team that most thought they would be is an NIT team....
January 3, 200719 yr I never cared much for Huggins, but IMO he is the best that UC will ever have. To be honest I kind of miss him at UC. It is hard to find a reason not to like them now.
January 3, 200719 yr The team that most thought they would be is an NIT team.... That is absolutely, postively, dead wrong. Here are a couple of note-worthy folks that thought they were, at worst, a Top 35 Team in America before the season. Before beating Villanova and Illinois. Have they had their share of horrible games, sure. However, to say they are "no good" is not correct. CollegeHoops.net: #35: Xavier Musketeers The deepest team in the Atlantic 10 is a favorite for the conference title. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- AP Preseason: Xavier Musketeers #29 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coaches Poll Preaseason: Xavier Musketeers #31

January 3, 200719 yr NIT bound...... ...and if they make the dance you sport an "X" avatar for the month of April?
January 3, 200719 yr ...and if they make the dance you sport an "X" avatar for the month of April? Sure....Although being conference champ in the A-10 is about as honorable as winning the Big Sky.
January 3, 200719 yr Sure....Although being conference champ in the A-10 is about as honorable as winning the Big Sky. Great...you'll look smashing. FYI, the A-10 is currently ranked as the 14th best conference, the Big Sky the 25th.
January 3, 200719 yr Great...you'll look smashing. FYI, the A-10 is currently ranked as the 14th best conference, the Big Sky the 25th. Anywhere outside the best 10 and I pretty much stop ranking....
January 3, 200719 yr Anywhere outside the best 10 and I pretty much stop ranking.... OK, I'll let Calipari and Memphis know that their Conference isn't worth the UKMF ranking. I'm sure they'll turn down their 3 or 4 seed because of that. :thumb:
January 3, 200719 yr OK, I'll let Calipari and Memphis know that their Conference isn't worth the UKMF ranking. I'm sure they'll turn down their 3 or 4 seed because of that. :thumb: They're a legit top 20 team, their conference isn't. Unfortunately for the A-10, they don't have such a team.
January 3, 200719 yr They're a legit top 20 team, their conference isn't. Unfortunately for the A-10, they don't have such a team. I didn't say they did. I simply inferred that dismissing every non-Top 10 Conference as equal could lead you into difficult debates to win. That was my only point. I would think Butler in the Horizon would agree as well.
