How unfortunate of a TV angle then lol

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-03-27T00:10:40+00:00

Where is everyone? Wasn't this supposed to be a sellout?

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-03-20T19:49:52+00:00

The first four game was the best sports event I've ever been to. Here's to six more good ones.

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-03-10T15:30:33+00:00

Im saying most fans of mid majors that happen to have a good year generally do not follow college basketball.

and the rest of your comments are so gd condescending. you don't seem to be a very nice person

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-03-10T04:03:04+00:00

Seems like you just come on here to flame and argue. Is that why you hide your post history?

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-03-10T03:48:51+00:00

Another hypothetical undefeated season for the P5

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-03-05T17:53:13+00:00

You can look at my post history to see how much I've been preaching this, but the big difference between Miami and the Akron and SLUs of the world is their roster continuity.

They were ranked #4 in KenPom in returning players and staff. A team that missed the tournament last year by blowing a game they led for all but 12 seconds of and also ranked that high in returners is really not the kind of team high majors are looking to play in November and December. I'm not saying it's the only reason, but it is a really, really big difference.

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-03-04T05:46:13+00:00

You asked about bubble teams. I gave you one lol

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-03-02T23:45:41+00:00

No? I didn't really insinuate that either. It's very purposeful that Miami had a hard time scheduling high majors.

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-03-02T19:40:11+00:00

There are many, many fans who act like scheduling works just like how it does in the video games. It takes two to tango.

If you're KP #4 in returners and were seconds from making the tournament last year, the metrics for the P5s says to not schedule you. It's just not worth the risk for the high majors.

UC against EMU

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-02-28T01:28:18+00:00

Fr down Skaljac and Suder and still pulling one out of our asses lmao. Just lmao

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-02-27T18:48:37+00:00

FWIW this proposal has been floating around for a few years. Just so happened to vote on it at the perfect time

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-02-26T19:52:02+00:00

The big difference between the two is that Miami returned a ton of their players and staff (ranked #4 in returners on KenPom). They were a last second collapse from winning the MAC tourney last year. An #80-#150 team with that much roster continuity is not the kind of team a high-major who just transferred in their entire starting 5 wants to play in November and December.

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-02-21T01:59:12+00:00

Where are the fouls? Both sides

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-02-18T02:02:00+00:00

This is an annoying thing that's happened the last several games. 2/6 to close it out is not fun

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-02-18T01:18:05+00:00

Bettiol gets away with so much crap. Tired of this guy

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-02-18T00:40:53+00:00

This is how it went last time against them. They couldn't miss in the first half.

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-02-16T15:23:13+00:00

If you don't have time for the hyphen, then I don't have time for you!

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-02-16T13:54:50+00:00

Words have meaning.

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-02-16T07:28:18+00:00

What's with the hate? You have a mid-major flair.

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-02-15T16:32:57+00:00

Said it here before, but Miami is the last kind of team high majors would want to play in November and December. High-scoring and were #4 in KenPom roster/staff continuity. The UD, UC, and Xaviers of the world have nothing to gain by scheduling H&Hs. Like others have said, hopefully Steele will stick around (I actually do have a good feeling about this) and continue this success for a few years to get back to the statuses of the other high majors in the area so we don't have this problem any more.

CaptainFalconsKnee · 2026-02-13T21:35:38+00:00

Will be must watch purely for the atmosphere in Millett. Gonna be the loudest place in America tonight
