RE: MAC NET rankings
I think any one of those top 5 schools could win the MAC tournament & not surprise me.

And no—a couple months ago I wouldn’t have said that about UT.

RE: MAC NET rankings
We're slightly favored over Akron at the moment.

Being our most vulnerable point, only BG and Buffs have a true center playing any significant minutes so maybe the toughest match-ups? Millner's jump hook going to get a workout. Love watching that go up.

Was thinking abou Freshman, to see if there's anyone playing comparable to Rollins.

BG has a couple Fr getting significant minutes. Their Methany looks the real deal, getting in 26 min. Fulcher getting 15 min. Ohio's Sears getting 15, which should go up as they're replacing an injury.

Springboromark made an identical thread after you made yours, East. I always prefer conversing on the original thread, so here I am.

Hard to keep track of these, easy to miss. Where ever conversation can happen, it's all good.

I did think this a good topic for discussion. I was surprised Akron was ahead of us and honestly, surprised we weren't higher. Which ever thread takes off, maybe we can use it to keep track of our rise to the top 20. :)

RE: MAC NET rankings
Hard to believe Gonzaga and BYU qualify as mid majors. Two schools with big time images and followings. Interesting that they are still placed in poll due to conference affiliation. I guess I’m stating obvious but still curious to me that Gonzaga sticks out so much. Kudos to Few for what he has accomplished at Gonzaga. I don’t think he gets near enough praise and press for what he has done at Gonzaga.

Drake at 12-0 not getting any love in coaches or AP poll.

Toledo (us) must play at BG. Will be tough game for sure. It would have been a packed house.

Thanks for posting Sleepy.

Good will to all my fellow Rocket fans.

Go Rockets!

RE: MAC NET rankings
and a wish for a good year two.

I was thinking the same after Sleepy's post. In b-ball, why are these schools "mid-major?" But it's pleasant company so I'm taking it. 12th in the mid majors is very good and they're doing it with the kind a team a UT can hope to recruit every year. Hope it holds up. Can't afford the injuries they got let alone any more.

OT: kudos to Coach K for a very good bit of coaching in (I believe) the WMU game. Shumate had got into some sort of dust-up. Looked minor, maybe something was said. But Coach K gave him a ration. As Shumate sat, a player, coach, I couldn't tell who gave him a fist-bump way-to-go. Coach K came over and gave that person a ration. Keeping them focused and sportsmen. Loved it.

RE: MAC NET rankings
Gonzaga and BYU are high majors without question, but play in leagues considered to be midmajor. That's the only qualifier. If you aren't in the Big East, A-10, B1G, AAC, ACC, BIG12, PAC12, MWC (hmm) or SEC you're eligible.

Mwc and AAC are mid major leagues although the AAC certainly has a few high major programs

RE: MAC NET rankings
Back in the day, I think they were all just called "conferences." They weren't given military rankings. Seems the older I get, the more adjectives I got to deal with. I blame the marketing dept.

RE: MAC NET rankings
Personally I do not like specific rankings like mid major. We are all DI. I prefer the #77 or whatever NET ranking and that's it.

Go Rockets!

Agreed. The mid major Top 25 rankings don't move the needle whatsoever for me.

RE: MAC NET rankings
It makes you feel good to see 15 instead of 77 but that's about it.

Just keep winning games. Pumped for today.

6:30 on CBSports in case anyone missed it.

Go Rockets!

gonna have to refresh the pizza roll supply.

I do like to see how we rank with those we compete with for recruits but in the end all, it's the 77 and the MAC that matter to me.

Paul, Paul, Pail... shake my head. Two posts above yours. You're supposed to READ the thread. :D

I was gonna go hit some crowded bars tonight or storm U-Hall but maybe I'll just stay inside and watch a ball game.

There is competition for the game though.

Tonight is Alex Trebek's last episode of Jeopardy.

Friday night, Rockets on TV, beer.

It don't get much better than that

Should be a good game but they look to have the advantage inside. That worries me.

Go Rockets!
