Re: 2024 CAA Men's Basketball Tournament Including My Prediction Contest

Charleston 92, Monmouth 74 (Hawks make it a game for about 25 minutes but run out of gas against the rested Cougars)
UNCW 71, Towson 63
Drexel 85, Stony Brook 80 (entertaining game and I wanted to go for the all-LI semifinal, but I ultimately couldn't do it)
Hofstra 74, Delaware 67

Re: 2024 CAA Men's Basketball Tournament Including My Prediction Contest

Can we use what I listed before the tourney so I don't have missing games?

Monmouth over Campbell by 5
Towson over W&M by 21
Stony Brook over Northeastern by 8
Elon upsets Delaware by 4

Re: CAAT Saturday, March 9 – Second Round

Delaware leads 63-15. Delaware has the five leading scorers, which I took a screen shot of. I wonder when the last time a team had the five leading scorers in a game at any point in the second half was. Edit: Delaware brough subs in, and their starters combined to play 85 minutes. They led 70-23 an...

Re: MBB Game 17 @ Campbell, Jan 13 (Sat), 2 PM

I wonder how the writer found out about this incident and why Speedy would talk about it publicly? Brian Mull is good at what he does. It's possible he was just interviewing Speedy in general, maybe that came up, and he explored it further. Speedy wouldn't have detailed the story if he thought it w...

Well, for the last one tonight, I'll say Delaware 74, Hampton 59

Re: 2024 CAA Men's Basketball Tournament Including My Prediction Contest

W&M was NC A&T's ironic line of demarcation this season. The Aggies beat W&M at home for a third straight win that moved them to 4-2 in the CAA. Including today, they went 1-12 thereafter, with W&M ending their season.

Re: MBB Game 17 @ Campbell, Jan 13 (Sat), 2 PM

A great example here that when we have certain opinions about what we only see on the outside, maybe we should temper them until we see results later because we don't always know what's happening in private. In this case, this is great coaching by Speedy and I place it in this thread because of what...

Re: 2024 CAA Men's Basketball Tournament Including My Prediction Contest

I don't think I'll do too well with this, but I'll take a shot just for fun. My initial thought is: W&M over NC A&T by 4 Elon over Hampton by 7 Monmouth over Campbell by 5 Towson over W&M by 21 Stony Brook over Northeastern by 8 Elon upsets Delaware by 4 Charleston over Monmouth by 19 UN...

Re: Pre-CAAT Discussion

Go get em wags, that's great bud, congrats to you - hope you enjoy the CAAT and bring our guys great luck! Wondering: cuts the nets anyway HU can get it (i.e. say, if UNCW knocks off Charleston for a third time), or do HU fans here want the challenge of beating the best to be the best, and want a t...

Re: Pre-CAAT Discussion

Thanks, guys! Appreciate you taking the time to check it out and the nice words. p.s. remember Hofstra's first half against W&M in the quarters last year? Pepperdine surpassed even that with leads of 26-0, 39-2, and 56-9 at halftime in a WCC first-round game tonight. Sure, Pacific was 0-16 in th...

Thanks for checking it out, Jojo. Not too long because I knew where to reference as I wanted to add in different stats. What took long was 14 teams instead of a smaller conference. 😂

Re: 2023-24 CAA MBB Awards

They didn't have the POY when they won the conference, although I think Buie should have got it over Nathan Knight. Knight averaged about 20 & 10 that year so it was going to be tough to beat that but I don't think anyone could've complained had Buie won it. Funny that with 8 prior POYs in 17 y...

So not surprising at all but now official... congrats to Tyler Thomas on winning CAA Player of the Year! 3 straight years and 6 of the last 9 now for the school. Amazing.

Here's another SB Nation article if you like - I just started writing for Mid-Major Madness (part of SB Nation) this week. This CAA tourney preview is my first article with them (I'll be covering the tourney in DC for them starting with the quarterfinals on Sunday): https://www.midmajormadness.com/...

Re: Pre-CAAT Discussion

Wags, good article...I would not mind meeting Charleston in the final. There's something to be said for the revenge factor and it's REALLY tough to best a team three times. It'll be very interesting to see how this plays out. If we go by the idea (which I subscribe to as well) that it can be diffic...
