Those Quad wins are the big thing now. Makes sense to use that as a criteria I suppose but often that's out of a team's hands. Gets me thinking what is the highest quad win for App basketball over the last 20 years or so? If you knock off a perceived good team early I reckon they have to stay good all season for it to be a decent quad win.BambooRdApp wrote: ↑Thu Jan 19, 2023 8:15 amAgreed. For the Sunbelt, the only team making the big Match Madness tourney is probably the tournament winner. So for App. St. hope to see new team members continue to gel and make run in SBC tournament.
If an SBC team ends up with 0 to 2 losses in conference and beat some decent P5 teams in OOC schedule, I would feel differently in that type of team should make big dance even if loss in SBC tournament.
199. Gosh, we have to be so much better than bottom third.APPdiesel wrote: ↑Wed Jan 18, 2023 4:41 pmConway, SC

That’s Nate Ross. Coached here at App under Cremins and possibly Cantwell. He’s awful and apparently just makes stats up. You can read how I really feel about him over on the Sunbelt boardNattyBumppo'sRevenge wrote: ↑Thu Jan 19, 2023 7:44 pmRaspy voice announcer is terrible. Other guy is ok.
Sounds like he's lost any allegiance to App he may have once had. Just muted the T.V. Again, I appreciate the semi-impartial way our announcers handle the role at our home games.proasu89 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 19, 2023 8:00 pmThat’s Nate Ross.

You don’t make 100% of the shots you don’t take. Or something like that
Nate is a grad school classmate of mine and works very hard at his craft. He’s pretty much the CCU “voice” the past couple years.AppDub wrote: ↑Thu Jan 19, 2023 8:04 pmSounds like he's lost any allegiance to App he may have once had. Just muted the T.V.

Indeed. Our bigs don't have the best hands tonight either. Still time to make a run.
