Almost every conference did, and then they realized that it didn't make sense anymore. We're a slow moving conference. I don't think there's much more to it than that I think with removing divisions, you'd also see a move to a 22 game conference schedule, which is probably the main hold up on the whole thing.

I politely call BS. We have to be one of the most concentrated conferences in the country. An extra trip to Muncie instead of BG isn't really going to make a difference.

81-60 good guys

This is how you respond to a loss

Depends which one

Kent goes down to WMU

The bracket matrix I posted a week or so back has us at a 9 by the highest bracketologist and an average of a 12 seed. Before today

Dang. Poor defense but Toledo was absolutely lights out. It happens, regroup and go on another run

This is chaos

Okay maybe let's not have Riak guard Jackson on the perimeter?

We've got some killers. I love this team

Everything starts with defense on this team. We aren't bad in half court sets but we're surely a lot better in transition, imo

Yeah

We're racing right past every pump fake on the perimeter, it's ugly defense. Toledo is making us pay with great ball movement too

Gotta quit leaving our feet on defense

We're playing our worst game in a while and Toledo can't miss, only down 5. We'll turn it up soon

Spitballing here but perhaps he had feedback on his D-1 coaching prospects that it would be beneficial to help on a D-1 staff before making the jump to HC at an FBS school

Not sure what exactly Kent has done but whatever

Trojans, not Cocks ?

Read earlier that LCJ drew 21 fouls. Wow!

@Captain Kangaroo made a post in the recruiting forum about Utomi fitting in here, I wanted to comment but didn't want to get too far off topic there. Winning is fun first and foremost. And KD's style won a lot, so we had a lot of good times. But man, winning the way we are now sure is fun. We're probably more athletic than most or all of his teams, but you can debate it. The difference that I love that isn't very much debatable is the pace and ball movement as opposed to the inside-out game CK mentioned. It's a ton of fun so far this year.
