Flagship!

Not excited about this. Would much rather have 4 BE teams in the sweet 16, silencing the doubters.

Some info from the Holylandofhoops site

Xavier - first team in the New Big East to reach the Sweet 16.


2015 NCAA Tournament Payday
$255,379 - Size of this year’s “tournament unit.” The NCAA pays conferences one unit for each non-championship tournament game its members played in the past six years. That means each game played in this year’s tournament will eventually be worth at least $1.53 million for its conference, paying out over the next six years. Most conferences divide that money evenly among all members, including the ones with bad basketball teams.

Each game played = 1 unit
Round of 64: 6 games = 6 units
Round of 32: 4 games = 4 units
ST units earned: 10

Round of 16: 1 game = 1 unit (Xavier)
Round of 8: ? (projected 2)
Final Four: ? (projected 1)

Total earned units: Maximum - 13, projected 17

No fan of the Flyers but nice effort.

Might as well been right. Everyone with a brain knew they didn't stand a chance.

[QUOTE=GoMuskies;498131]There's something about a glove, right?[/QUOTE

And rightly said my friend. We carry this pisshole league.

SMELL THE GLOVE!!

Good to see Matt has been reading Xavier Hoops. If he had called the Big East a pisshole league (shithole league would also be accepted) and told them all to smell the Glove, then we could have been certain he got it from us.

Who has that image of the ship with all those Xavier logos?

[LadyMuskie]

Here's the only one I could find and I can't get the image alone.

I was actually pretty creative 4 years ago.

And here's the image, although I don't know how to make it bigger either.

LOL! This is the first thing I thought of when I read Matts quote!
