NIT Selection Show 8:30 ESPNU

[two3zone]

Obviously this is a tournament regardless of the title and we want to win, but do we believe Boeheim does anything different with rotation, defense, etc.?

He always plays to win so I assume he will.

 

[pearl31]

will this tell us whether FH will be back or not?

 

[Trueblue25]

Negative, Ghostrider.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Sad. Very Sad!

 

[Trueblue25]

will this tell us whether FH will be back or not?

I think so.

Lunardi on ESPNU is saying Syracuse doesnt even deserve to be in the conversation!

What conversation?

 

[CaptainJ]

Does the NIT allow beer vending?
...asking for a friend

EPIC! I remember after drinking outside, after my traumatic encounter with CTO staring at me and telling Doug Gottleib that he sucks...and then going inside and learning there was no beer anywhere(other than in suites), I became slightly bitter and talked it up with a number of emplyees there(even asked one if he would look the other way for some cash if i stole a bottle of the hard stuff ). I was bitter, and wont blame it on a friend, lol.

 

[CaptainJ]

What conversation?

Of being in...and they are really the only team I've heard discussed.

I could make great fun out of a Greensboro matchup at the dome but I'm not sure I can work my talents to their greatest capabilities with just 6 or 7 dome dogs alone

 

[CaptainJ]

Now the guys on ESPNU are finally trashing Syracuse. I dont think these guys really understand. Before, I had only heard support for Cuse...from guys like Bilas and Dickie V.

Im lost about the 6 or 7 Dome dogs. Are you like that japanese guy who wins the title belt many years in the eatathon?

Wonder what the crowd will be like? I remember in 97 and 02 the crowds were like 5,000.

When we got screwed in 07, we had 27,000 there. I feel like the crowd for Maryland in 08 was decent too.

This is not an opponent anyone cares about and there's no "screwed" outrage where everyone was shocked we didn't get it. I'm thinking small crowd, but hope I'm wrong.

The irony is a lot of the espn people were actually shocked

Spring Break. No Students.

 

[CaptainJ]

Spring Break. No Students.

Not like SU students help that much in recent years, as oppose to back in the day!

 

[CaptainJ]

Now theyre talking how good Mount St Mary's is. I remember playing them on their home court back in the day, and they started a fight. Yes, allow me to remember some of that stuff, as we traded a chance to have an exhibition against Lithunia shortly after they got the Dead tie die shirts. lol the memories are coming back.

There's gotta be enough random chemicals in 7 dome dogs to get some kind high.

I'll get back to you on that.

One word, 4 syllables:

E-lectric

Maybe a low wattage...

 

[Madbiker]

In the one year since Rutherford was president that SU can hit a free throw, they ban the 1-and-1. LOL

So if team fouls reset every quarter, it's an incentive to commit more fouls and favors teams with depth to spread them out. Which ain't us.

No I just fully embrace the rollercoaster ride of emotions that is a Syracuse basketball game, and dome dogs hope me cope with the bad times, as dome foams help me celebrate the good! But yeah I have a mean appetite.

Ha, that sounds cool. I have no idea if youre a big guy, I guess I always pictured you as your avatar!

Seriously? Do they have nothing better to do with their time.

Lunardi on ESPNU is saying Syracuse doesnt even deserve to be in the conversation!

He said in most years a team that was 18-14 with an rpi of 84 wouldn't be in the discussion, he isn't wrong.
