What 2 teams have lost a combined 12 of their last 14 games but still manage to remain in the Top 50.... Hints....1 is considered a New York City Metro team and has lost 5 in a row. The other has lost 7 out of their last 9 . Neither is considered to be a national powerhouse. Finally.....Both have a RPI ahead of Iona and many other teams that would be favorites on neutral courts.

Hmmm... Give me a hint. Would 1 maybe have a couple of guys that used to be employed at Iona College working for them? And would the other possibly be a Big Ten school that boasts a guy who has a national morning radio sports show as a graduate?

Seton Hall and Pitt?

Seton Hall is collapsing just like most of Willard's teams did with us. In a mid major league you need a coach who has the team peaking in March and I don't think Willard is that guy.
Cluess was 5-2 last year but the two losses were championships. Hopefully the 2 championship losses were just bad timing stinkers.

Here's another RPI riddle. What team if they win their remaining 8 games would : have a 37 RPI (according to Live RPI.com) 1-0 record against existing top 50 6-2 record against existing top 100 That sounds like an NCAA team, I wonder who this is ?

Only boredom led me to this...A team beat B team by about. 40 points on their home court.. 3 days later B team beat A team by 19 points at their home court. About a 60 point turnaround. Hint.....A team is ahead of Iona in the RPI poll. Why is beyond me...Both teams are from the same section of the country.....Winner gets a slightly used set of crutchers as soon as I have no use oo f them...............Aside......Have we seen the of best of MO MO yet. And do you think playing the point will distract from his yet to reach its potential offense......
