The 7-footer on CovCath who moved from Evansville is the son of Sascha Hupmann, who played for Evansville against Xavier when both were in the MCC.

Shootout Tradition:

BEFORE: Should we even play it any more? The game has lost its luster. Nobody talks about it and there isn't enough animosity.

It was the school from Cambridge, Mass... Lesley University, that is now 0-7 in Division III.

So there will be a San Diego, a San Diego State, and a UC-San Diego? That won't be confusing at all.

This isn't Xavier, but still funny (Maybe it should go in the Funny Stuff thread).

John Tesh wrote and owns the song ("Roundball Rock"). I thought I remember reading he offered it to ABC or ESPN for NBA games, but they turned him down.

Five teams who missed the NCAA Tournament last season but could make a March Madness run in 2020

Two Big East teams on the list (hopefully you can guess at least one).

It didn't work out so well the last time they played to start the Big East schedule:

I think this thread is meant to be about players Xavier is recruiting, but have not committed.

The other thread ("Following our 2020 Recruits") is about players who have already committed to...

The audio is from the IU radio broadcast, not the TV broadcast. The announcer is Don Fisher, who has been broadcasting IU games forever.


Maybe not #1, but worth a mention is Mark Lyons at the...

Semaj is playing in a tournament at the Friars Club this weekend. He's on a team with Jordon Crawford (the LaSalle/Bowling Green one, not the X one) and Devin Williams. They are scheduled to play...

Tandy and Miles will be teaming up in another all-star game:

Four Northern Kentucky players named to face Indiana in prestigious all-star game

If we win that game, we don't even play San Diego State. We would have played Duke. While it probably would have gotten ugly, I think our strength of schedule might have gone up a tick by playing...

Where did this strategy come from of recruiting a big man "project" and then redshirting him come from? We've reportedly tried it the last two years (K.Jones and Walter) and neither one even made...

Sean McNeil tweeted he has narrowed his search to six teams. Xavier is not one of them.

They were trying to fit four games on three networks (ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU) into most of the windows to get them in on Tuesday and Wednesday, so one game in each window was relegated to ESPN3. It...

I would have loved to have had more, but there was three days notice for a mid-week game, with no base of season tickets automatically built in (at least that was my impression- season ticket holders...

You'd rather have a miserable night in Dayton than go to NYC?

I think they have banners for conference championships. Not a banner for each championship, but one that says "MCC" and then lists all the years they won the MCC, one that says "A-10" and lists all...

I prefer it this way without quarters. It keeps the game flowing without having those hold-the-ball-for-the-last-shot possessions you'd have if you broke it into quarters. I did not like the...

The article doesn't say Bowling Green turned down an NIT invite. It says they won't play in a postseason tournament. Bowling Green's NET and Kenpom rankings are in the 100s and worse than any team...

UC got a gift playing in Columbus. As close to a home game as they could ever ask for in the tournament without being in the play-in game.

I just hope St. John's doesn't lose by 30.

It's back to the "traditional" one-hour show on CBS only this year. TBS is showing Thor: The Dark World and TNT is showing Empire Strikes Back.
