It was so cold. It was miserable. They didn’t even take tickets. They just let anyone dumb enough to come in to come watch .

And the worst thing about basketball at our level is that you can have a wonderful season, win your conference and still feel like you haven't accomplished much because you had one bad day in the tournament. Probably should enjoy the auto bid while you can. Big schools are growing tired of subsidizing smaller schools budgets through the ncaa. One of two things is getting ready to happen. A. The tournament expands to allow more major conference teams. Smaller conferences are still given an auto bid, but basically play in the play in games of the tourney. B. The top leagues break off and form their own organization/tournament. They've allowed so many d1 teams, it's created to much disparity, lack of agreement on any issue.

There has been one SoCon team I've ever seen worthy of an at large bid. 18-19 Wofford. Went undefeated in league. Played a very respectable non-conference. Finished season with a t-rank of 25. We are currently 73.

Furman high school AV club calling their game against VMI are awful even when they are not calling FU/SU. So unprofessional and terrible homers. Of the color guy says “right there” one more time, I’m changing the channel. Can’t believe they’ve left vMI hanging around this long.

Just curious. Besides Furman last year, has any socon team made a good run? Curry played in the socon but any other team?
