biteoftheapple Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 You might be right. But suppose the NCAA says to Memphis something along the lines of, “You want to play Wiseman? Fine, we can’t physically stop you. But if you do, none of your wins will count. We will not give you a tournament bid. Even if you win your Conference tournament we won’t honor it.” I don’t pretend to know NCAA bylaws, and I’m entirely too lazy to research it, but I would be surprised if they don’t have that level of control over participants in their own tournament. What does Memphis do then? Exactly. Quote

What does Memphis do then? According to Bilas they actually sign something saying they won’t sue the NCAA. People like him that are fairly neutral saying this is beyond a ballsy move. Plus it’s Memphis. I anticipate they will prove a point with them. If Kansas did this? I honestly don’t know. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

DChoosier Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 Evansville is 2-0. Evansville has the best win of the year by beating number 1 on the road. Should Eville be rated 1st next week (or at least top 5) ? Of course that assumes they beat IU-Kokomo LOL. Stromboli, Alford Bailey, ElectricBoogaloo and 4 others 7 Quote

Uspshoosier Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 Insane Stat of the Night: Coppin State (coached by Juan Dixon) had lost 73 straight games to non-MEAC D-1 opponents prior to tonight’s road win against Loyola Chicago. Last victory vs. a non-MEAC D-1 team came way back on Dec. 11, 2013 - when they beat UMBC at home.Jeff Goodman Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

What does Memphis do then? NCAA has the Restitution Rule implemented years ago. I posted the details of it on page 1308 of this thread and yes, the NCAA has the power to do just what you outlined and more. ElectricBoogaloo, mamasa and Demo 1 2 Quote

They're "unconventional" like that. Know what else is "unconventional"? Losing to the 25 point underdog you paid 90k to play. southsidehoosier 1 Quote
Class of '66 Old Fart Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 Shakespeare himself couldn't have written more beautiful words than these from Jon Rothstein - Kentucky loses a buy game to Evansville. The epitome of brutality. Or these words from Ken Pomeroy - Unbeaten teams remaining: 125 (Sorry, Kentucky). Unbeaten teams remaining: 112 (Sorry, Memphis).

Didn't watch this game, but the game they played MSU, I watched the whole game and I don't remember even seeing Brooks play. Must have been invisible. Quote

He played 21 min which was the second lowest of the 8 players that played. Brooks is going to be fine. He chose the path that he thought was best for him. I still look forward to watching him play this year Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
