For the ignorant, there is a little thing called recruiting.....Now, back to telling us how Richmond is all world.....

He is an all world 3 point shooter, and that's all I've ever said that he was an elite 3 point shooting talent that would be one of the best and most efficient scorers in CUSA. Is he not proving me right on that averaging almost 5 three's a game and 20ppg on one of the top true shooting percentages.

I've also never said your new players weren't good, only that La Tech's were good and more proven than your guys.

Campbell is a power house.

Akeem Richmond may go #1 in the draft next year and is probably already better than Michael Jordan.

3 point shots aren't easy to hit regardless of who you are playing. That's why the CUSA record is 10 and has only been done 3 times ever in 20 years and thousands of games.

Also this is a great example of a typical thread on this board. I contribute a perfectly fine, respectful, and logical point about La Tech having more proven players and am hit with personal name calling such as idiot, ignorant etc and my team or players on my team get put in the conversation and ripped. Then you'll even try to blame me for derailing it or talking up ECU at some point I'm sure or call for the mods to ban me. Pretty typical, only usually I'm called out by name before I even post.

It is too early to talk Bracketology. Conference play is just starting. Give it a month and things will be a little more clear.

And this is a typical post by you that explains how "logical and respectful" you are with simply illogical explanations by you. How good you are is defined by how you play in the court, not by stats.

About what, La Tech having a more proven team of returners? This statement makes no sense and you are the one hurling personal insults and derailing this thread as well.

We are 11-4, and have as good or better record than Kentucky, Kansas, North Carolina etc. No context of schedule is needed I suppose (insert sarcasim). Hell why do we even keep stats or measures anything like standings if you can just eyeball tell by the "play on the court" since of course you watch every minute of every game. We can just define teams as "good", "bad" etc I suppose. You guys are ridiculous sometimes.

2. Floyd has made it clear that nothing less than an NCAA bid is acceptable for UTEP. If they don't win it, they won't be playing in any post season tournaments.

You are confused as to what Floyd said, which is no surprise to me. Floyd stated that UTEP basketball will only play in a post season tournament that started with the word National. Meaning only the NCAA or the NIT and we would not play in any other post season tournament while Floyd is our coach.

Last year, Floyd said that his time would be better spent recruiting than accepting a bid to the N.I.T.

No. It was a tongue in cheek exaggerated sarcastic response to his nonsense. I even spelled that out in the post for people like yourself who apparently still missed it.

No, you said "We are 11-4, and have as good or better record than Kentucky, Kansas, North Carolina etc."

I was merely pointing out this is a false statement. Numbers wise, not tongue in cheek exaggerated response wise. I knew what you were doing, but you don't have a record as good or better than any of these teams.

No, like others around here you were stalking my post and nitpicking every detail as ridiculous, unimportant, or small is to the context. Hell this was already clearly meant as a huge exaggeration and not to be taking seriously, hell I even spelled that out because I know stalkers like yourself are lurking just to do what I expected. If that's the best you got it just shows what a joke it is an how far you will go to argue with me.

No, you tried to compare your team to teams that were much better than yours. You were called out, realized you were wrong, and now are trying to make it sound like the whole thing was a joke. I got the tongue in cheek part, like I said. The thing is your record is not as good as or better than any of those teams.

Yeah because I think we are as good as those teams

You people really don't do well with exaggerations or sarcasm even when I spell it out for you. The entire point WAS that we weren't as good as those teams regardless of wins and that more context is needed.

Quote:I got the tongue in cheek part, like I said. The thing is your record is not as good as or better than any of those teams.

Apparently no you didn't or couldn't grasp that it was a complete exaggeration and meant as such.

That's not it though, you are smarter than that. You are just exactly what I said a stalker that nitpicks every word I type on this board even when it was clearly an exaggeration or sarcasm. It's just a great example of how deep you will dig or go to stir something no matter how unimportant it is to anything. Then when threads get derailed it's my fault and you cry to mommy and try to get me banned. Look in the mirror or at the ridiculous people on this thread looking to stir **** no matter how absurd it is.

you've earned every negative word ever posted about you on here sir.

"We are 11-4, and have as good or better record than Kentucky, Kansas, North Carolina etc."

SJ, what the F*#% else would this mean? If you meant it as an exaggeration, why didn't you say Arizona, Ohio State, and Syracuse. Seriously, what in the world could we are 11-4 and have as good or better record than Kentucky, Kansas, UNC mean? That's not an exaggeration, it's a false statement, and that's it. I'm not nitpicking, I'm telling you those 3 teams have better records than ECU currently.

L against UNC-Wilmington at home, L to Georgia State at home, best win Norfolk State at home. Ehhhhhh
