MBB: NCAA Lifts Post-Season Ban On @FIUMensBBall
NCAA Lifts Post-Season Ban On @FIUMensBBall

Quote:MIAMI (April 15, 2014) – Due to its outstanding improvement in the team’s APR (Academic Progress Rate) scores, the FIU men’s basketball team will be able to participate in post-season play beginning next season, per the NCAA.

The Panthers, provided they continue to meet the necessary benchmarks set forth by the NCAA, will not receive any future post-season tournament bans.

FIU is coming off a 15-16 (7-9 C-USA) record in the program’s first season in Conference USA as well as under Head Coach Anthony Evans.

The APR scores reflecting the 2012-2013 season for the Panthers will be released by the NCAA in June.

Congrats to FIU. Hopefully everyone else stays eligible and we have 14 teams for the next conference tournament.

Might not include our friend's to the north:

http://www.fauowlaccess.com/articles/193...s-ban.aspx

Quote:Florida Atlantic athletic administrators are bracing for the possibility that no matter who they hire as the Owls' next basketball coach, that person may not have the opportunity to coach the Owls in the postseason during his first year.

FAU officials are awaiting the NCAA's response to the Owls' official Academic Progress Rate report and one source called it “likely” that the NCAA will impose some penalty – potentially even a postseason ban for basketball.

Conference USA rules stipulate that teams ineligible for the NCAA Tournament are also ineligible for the conference tournament.

Having 14 teams in the conf. tourney is ridiculous anyway.Only the top 8-10 should be eligible IMHO.

Congrats guys! Because y'all kicked our butts this year in basketball in return for us winning in football, how about we split the cost of some drinks for the Shula Bowl down in Miami?

12 is fair. That way you protect the top 4 teams, and you only have the bottom 2 missing out. I hate a 14 team tournament though.

Oh, that's right. I was remembering more fondly a 73-38 game a few years back. 03-razz At least we made it to the NCAAs even with failures of SBC tournaments...

About as relevant as me lifting my self-imposed ban on having sex with Kate Upton.
