Yikes.

No more prime time programs left in the CAA.

Don't read the DNR today. Yeager and Bourne both talking about how the CAA is closer to it's glory days than years past. The Iraqi propaganda minister couldn't have done better.

Can you post those quotes? I can't find it online.

And UVA usually returns the favor. That game yesterday against Sparty was Clank City and borderline unwatchable.

Once again a little "bad luck" or not a good of defense from JMU. UVA shot 58% against us,and 71% from behind the arc.

Dukester, you've got no argument from me in that that was a terrible finish versus Upstate; i.e., the last three minutes. They seemed to play well up to that point. The team was generally good in close game situations or they got blown out (not too much in between generally). Hopefully, there's a progression next season in the right direction. They went from 11 wins to 19 wins and did that with a largely inexperienced, young team. Next year, you'd like to see 23 or 24 wins or more.

The number of wins is not a good barometer with our high RPI schedule. I would consider the number of conference wins from year to year to be a better guide.

I would have guessed that our OOC opponents averaged a higher RPI than did in conference. UVA, OSU, Valpo, RU, then a drop off.
