Not that it means much because the 3rd team in the SEC might not make the Big Dance, but having seen many of these games on TV and Georgia/Miss. in person, the Gaels would be the 3rd best team in the SEC behind Florida and Kentucky. Chels, guys in my neck of the woods have said the same thing!

Namaste everyone.... I live on the beach in LA and wear flip flops and board shorts everyday after work 365. Everyone has adversity in their lives (myself included) but I've got Beautiful family, fantastic kids a great house. Maria Sharipova, Tony Gonzales and Pete Carroll are all my neighbors ...along with many happy and successful folks you've never heard of. (also Tianna Gregory is a short drive from where I live too:). Never touch coffee and still knock it out like a champ. Life is good and I happen to be passionate about many things including IONA men's hoops. Not high strung.... just believe that everything in this world has a time and place. Focus on your passions whatever they may be and good things will happen in your life, that I guarantee! Dilution leads to mediocrity and that often leads to a life filled with regret. I find it hard to believe that nobody agrees with me on this. Maybe I am alone on this board. That being said.... winning out puts ICMBB with a real shot at a 12 seed. ....and Siena has a decent chance to knock off Quinny as they still have something to play for. If not, Quinny is the team I fear most in the MAAC tourney. Have you and WP ever met??

No, WP is a tool... but we do often discuss pre-season WNBA games in their chatroom.
I think ESPN now has us as 13 seed against Iowa State. I'm sure they would love a rematch.... Sledge would enjoy that as well.

Remember, though, that that is based on us facing the best teams possible in each round (in terms if RPI). But if, for example, Siena upsets Manhattan or Canisius in the quarters, that will be like a 60-point drop in opponent's RPI. Not seeing the 2 or 3 seed in the final would produce a similar drop. So, it's a catch 22, if we get the easier road to a title we likely have no shot at a 12 seed.

The discussion for a 12 seed would make sense if we beat Dayton and/or the Bonnie's. I'm just hopeful that if we do qualify, we avoid a Big 10 team like Wisconsin or Michigan St. Would rather roll the dice with Iowa St, Texas, or Villanova.

We might be there, but SLU is getting shaky. If we meet SLU, that is our NCAA win!

Everything is just conjecture at this point. Way too many scenarios based upon opinions and assumptions as to what will happen in the individual conference tournaments. Crazy to waste time and energy concerned or interested on this at this point in my opinion. Totally meaningless if we do not win the MAAC Tournament. Wait until the deal is done and the other conference tournaments are played.

Will just have to overcome it one of these years.
