B-Man Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 I believe that we are safely in. It doesn't matter about the # from each conference at this point. They have all their work done down to 1 or 2 teams on the edge.......................and we aint one of those. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess for power conferences it's like being 6-6 gets you a bowl game. Looks like both Bona and Syracuse have to play in. #13 Buffalo vs #4 Arizona in Boise Thursday. (#13? No respect.)

YoloinOhio Posted March 11, 2018 Author Share Posted March 11, 2018 (edited) This selection show feels like an episode of Ellen. Live studio audience? Awkward much? Edited March 11, 2018 by YoloinOhio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Xavier is a #1 seed for the first time ever. I’m pleased, and concerned about severe disappointment. (I’m a Bills fan, remember?) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row_33 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Gee, USC was hyped as the top team in the PAC 12 and was on the state map preseason and they didn’t make it. when USC does ANYtHiNg worthy in hoops in the future it will be the first time in my 45 years of watching....

Mark Vader Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 The LIVE studio audience was stupid. Just announce the brackets! Syracuse & Oklahoma are in?! Yeesh! North Carolina, Duke & Purdue are 2 seeds, but Michigan State is a 3?! Happy to see Michigan get a 3 seed. Did everyone here Ernie Sanders say that the Arizona Wildcats will take on the Buffalo Bills? The Midwest Region is the toughest bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That team was great. I saw them at Bonas when they were getting close to #1. That was when basketball actually had positions. They had the pass first PG, Macon as the shooting guard, Vreeswick aka Threeswick - shooting threes, which were not the whole game at the time, a future NBA power forward (forget his name) and space eating huge center.

Duh...of course. Gettin' old here! But Xavier was in the A-10 back then too, right? I'm not totally senile yet? That Temple team was good.

They were in it for about 20 years, I think. Temple was in it probably for 30 years or so. I remember Rhody being good then. Wasn't Tom Penders their coach and they went to maybe the Elite Eight?

Sweet 16 was in '88 under Penders; beat ' Cuse, lost to Duke. Late 90s was the Elite 8 run under Jim Harrick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo716 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Local Cheektowaga prospect Dom Welch has committed to Bonnies... leading scorer in WNY history BBB you should be thrilled he is a legitimate scorer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only bummer to the day was that Isiah Brockington announced on twitter that he was transferring. It was a few hours before the Welch presser. So, some people think that he may have seen his minutes leaving - but he looked like he could have been really good over the next three years - with Welch! Also, of note, McKenna Maycock of Randolph is on the women's team - and she is the all time WNY scorer for girls. So, it's pretty cool that both are Bonnies at the same time.

I saw that he hit 39% from 3 this year at prep school, but I didn't see how many he took. I had previously thought he did most of his scoring on drives.

I always saw him as more of a small athletic 3 or a bigger 2 who can take it to the hoop but his SR season at Cheektowaga Central and this past season at SPIRE he has definitely gained a better outside shot that you must respect i think by his Sophomore-JR season he will be your top scorer because that’s his game. He can take them over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
