I know Harvard is good, but it's difficult to understand how they recruit the players they need, year in and year out.

It's the easiest sell in the country for someone not good enough to play at Stanford.

Here we go again...

I don't think UH is intelligent enough to come out with a win.

It's not that confusing, Georgian. If you're a 3* basketball prospect with a 3.4 GPA in HS and a good SAT, then Harvard is the best offer that you're going to get.

...that is, if Stanford doesn't want you.

Nice start for ECU

At least not completely stinking out the joint so far.

I stand to be corrected but I don't think the Ivy League schools even offer football or basketball scholarships. Because of the prestige and difficulty of getting into these schools they instead offer scholastic scholarships to brainy athletes.

We need SMU to get one of these.

ECU only up 2 with 3 to go, gotta hold on

56-49 ECU gets the win over Fresno

Great job Bucs!

At least we won't go winless against D1 teams this year!

Ohh good catch

Good job ECU! We need as many OOC wins as possible, hopefully SMU will get the win tonight! A Houston win would be a huge bonus!

I was referring to another day in a row of ecu basketball. Glad we won.

That was a vital win for ECU and the AAC. It's less of a "congrats" and more of a "phew, we all dodged a bullet there".

It will be a good day in the AAC if SMU wins. A Houston win is gravy. Everyone else absolutely must win.

If you think about it, the tournament begins NOW. These are the bad losses that can hurt a team or conference.
