Earlier in the year we evaluated basketball in our D1 programs. Other than Purdue the other D1 programs sucked this year. I guess I'd pick IU a distant second, followed by Butler and ND. Next would be IPFW and IUPUI. The bottom dwellers would be Valpo, Indiana State, Evansville, and Ball State.

We we basing this on the team's available players in last game? Which means Valpo no Fazekas,Evill no Feehan,IU no Romeo & we have everybody back? I rate us 4th.

I didn't have confidence enough in our ability to beat any team in the state the was we played post-Toledo to put us above any program in the state.

Which means Valpo no Fazekas,Evill no Feehan,IU no Romeo & we have everybody back? Is that a question because the answer is "No, we don't have everybody back." We lose 2 starters, which make up 2 of our top 4 scorers (including our leading scorer), our second-leading rebounder, top shot blocker, top assist man. Of course, those two were also our top 2 turnover machines this past season so maybe it's not all bad. Of course, the big returnee is the coach, who's never shown a great ability to seamlessly integrate new players into the fold and with 2-3 players possibly starting who've never been on the court for us it likely will not be a smooth transition.

I took his question to be where we stood in the last game not next year which you are. So which was it bsu1?

Even at that, to place us 4th you must be suggesting we were better at the end of the year than at least one of following programs: Indiana, Butler, Notre Dame? Which one? I can see an argument for placing us fifth, but just as easily see an argument for 10th. After the first four you're just comparing different levels of mid-major mediocrity.

We'd probably loose to Vincennes as they just won the NJCAA D1 National Championship so you can place them ahead of us too. Why not....

I had so little confidence in this team I could not be comfortable saying we could beat any of the D1 team in the state and that comes from someone who always had great confidence in BSU.

I placed us above ND but would agree it would be a toss up dependent on who wants it more & I felt we would.
