Congrats to VU for a sound thrashing of a over matched MTSU squad....especially from a BBIQ standpoint. IF Gillespie can play like that and INSPIRE your young roster, Nova will be there when the dust clears. GQJ just too good to expect otherwise.

XUP??? Is that you or did someone grab your phone to give props to nova? Lol, just kidding man. Tougher test tomorrow with Mississippi State. See you guys are up 13 now... good luck the rest of the tourney.

Hey man, why surprised? Show me where I posted anything NOT based on reality that can be considered bashing your team? I just got riled up by some arrogant jerks on a message board which did bash mine. It is amusing how this tickle fight got started, so for some stupid reason I will expend more energy on it.

I posted a comment on the “Nova still on top?” thread as to VU polling over XU. Even though X has returned almost all of the production from a team that played Nova to a virtual draw the last 3 games and pointed out that you guys lost the 2 ALL BE dudes that killed us! A very reasonable argument in the spirit of the thread. Next thing you know Gumby and his merry men, break out the “Mid Major” club and start wailing away. I took offense to it. NIT insults, really? It wasn’t that long ago that you guys were a staple in the NIT while X was making noise in the Big dance.

Obviously, you can only play in the conference you’re affiliated with...when we were in the A10 and played P6 teams OOC we took care of business on a regular basis. And by the time we were done in the A10 we had kicked ass and taken names. Fortunately conference realignment provided us with a major step up to High D1 joining the BEast.

On the other hand, I know you guys had your “uh oh” moment when most of the big boys bolted but you should be grateful that 3 quality programs were there to ease the pain. Yes, the Villanova juggernaut is off the chart. Going forward I think your recent dominance will greatly enhance the quality of ALL the teams in the league by association, but make no mistake, Xavier has done it’s share of heavy lifting.

Xup, seriously, I was just kidding you and messing around---need that damn sarcasm font. Its cool. You make good points and everyone is going to defend their guys. I hope we dont digress down that path again, what a waste of time that would be!

I hope you guys do great. It helps everyone. That said, like you, i am not easily swayed in an argument about my boys, no matter what the merits of the argument are! Again, good luck the rest of the off season and in the tourney. Of course that big chunk of time in between, well....

Tuned in for the second half. GTown looked like a machine. Defense was something. But, they always seem to have that one game where they look like that, even where they have eventually floundered. Let's see if they can keep it rolling this year. So good to see Texasssss taking a beating. thanks, GTown.
