Yes, that's the rule. That's why Evan and others took the matter to court to bypass the rule. He wouldn't have needed to take it to court otherwise. 1 Quote

Well Lyles is playing pro ball now so I'm uncertain how that would factor in. I know a random G-League player last year ended up committing to some D1 school and I know some pro European players have came to D1. The rules use to be much simpler when determining if a player was eligible or not. 1 Quote

kreed5120 Posted August 4 Report Posted August 4 I shared this earlier for our other commits so I figured I'd share Evan's as well. He's in the 64th percentile of wings in scoring efficiency, but is pretty elite at everything else, which seems to check out based off what we all saw last season. 4 1 Quote

A coach that has never made the tournament in his 24 years as a D1 coach who coaches at a program that hasn't went dancing in 46 years. Loser mentality by a losing coach at a losing program. 3 Quote

kreed5120 Posted Wednesday at 03:51 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 03:51 PM I'm sure someone will post Zips schedule graphic later, but the MAC released the conference schedule today. There will be 22 games. https://getsomemaction.com/news/2026/8/12/mac-announces-2026-27-mens-basketball-conference-schedule.aspx 2 Quote

Does this mean we now go 21-1, or will it be 20-2? Quote
csims0917 Posted Wednesday at 06:19 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 06:19 PM Kent state is back to being the last game of the regular season. Very interesting. Could either make the game even bigger or have no stakes at all. Kind of preferred how we’ve been doing it recently Quote

The regular season - especially now with 22 games - should hold a lot of weight. Reward the teams that do the best over the course of the grind. Not a huge sample size, but this format previously resulted in the top regular season teams playing for the championship more often than not. 1 Quote
