Re: Ohio U vs George Mason

I don't think the MAC has ever received an at-large and they never will unless someone beats several top 20 teams. Ohio may have a decent record, but they lost to a couple mediocre teams that they should have won. They must win the tourney to get in. IMO KSU will not get an at-large either.

Re: 2/29 Greenfield McClain Vs. Vinton County

I disagree that Mcclain will not be able to press VC. If Court House can press them and force several turnovers like they did, I know Mcclain can. The question will be if Mcclain can put enough points on the board. I think they can.[/quote If WCH is so much deeper than Mcclain, then how did Mcclain...

Re: 2/29 Greenfield McClain Vs. Vinton County

There will be no double-digit victory in this game. Greenfield lacks the depth to full-court pressure Vinton County. Granted, McClain's halfcourt defense could give Vinton fits if some pressure is not relieved off of Andy Grillo. A ball screen or two would make his life much easier. If McClain gets...

Re: Fourth period surge gives McClain 43-35 win

Greenfield looked ok friday but not great. They got beat too many times in the paint, esp. on the baseline. And they should have never gotten out-rebounded. Webster had a bad game all around - not many rebounds and missed a lot of shots. They will need big games from Webster and Zollo to beat VC. T...

Re: Top D3 programs in recent years

Unioto hasn't been to the Convo since 2001, so since this is recent, I wouldn't include them. If this was for the 90's, I would definetly include them though. North Adams has been there like 6 or 7 straight years. Ironton has been pretty dominating at the District level as of late, much like Wheele...

Re: 2/29 Greenfield McClain Vs. Vinton County

IMO Mcclain will win b/c of defense. I watched VC blow a 16 point lead in the 4th qtr. b/c they could not handle WCH defense. VC had a ton of turnovers due to pressure. But VC does have an offense that can put points on the board so it will be interesting. Unfortunately I cannot attend the game b/c ...

I also hate seeing those overdramatic guys who make calls so everyone can see them. There are a few too many of those guys running around too. I agree. There are too many ref's that enjoy the power. Some just want to look like they are in charge. Greenfield had a ref like that at a freshman game a ...

I have only watched one tourney game this year (Greenfield vs. Unioto), and I thought the refs were not great, but not horrible either. But they were consistent for both teams. Someone mentioned earlier that traveling and palming the ball usually don't get called: the Unioto guard was called for pal...

I personally do not like the offense that Greenfield is running. There is not enough motion, too many guys standing still. Their offense might work well in the scol, but maybe not in the tourney. Against Unioto Polley did run right to the rim a lot of times, b/c Unioto did a nice job of pushing gree...

I have not see VC play this year but w/ only one loss they have to be pretty talented. I saw WCH play Greenfield the first time and they looked pretty good, but IMO were not very disciplined. They do have some talent. I know from seeing VC in past years that they usually play pretty physical. It sho...

Mcclain is fairly young and has only a couple seniors that play regularly. Hopefully the younger players will be ready to play and not be nervous. I personally have not played at the convo but I have seen several good players get nervous and not play well on that court. I think it will be similar to...

GoBlue- I guarentee Coach Hoops talked to him about it multiple times, but you pretty much have to keep your best ballhandler in the game. tropical- He's a junior and a very young junior, easily could be a sophomore. I never said he should have taken him out of the game, he is their best guard. Eve...

IMO, the Unioto coach should have talked to #4 about turning the ball over after he was called for it, but he didn't.

I have not seen Galia play, but it sounds like they are on a winning streak. Greenfield will have to shoot better than they did against Unioto in order to win. Greenfield went 8 days w/o playing before Fri. and they looked flat.

They have been pretty good all year at getting to the free throw line. I know they shot 31 free throws against Southeastern, who shot 4.

Zollo has gotten more comfortable as the season progresses. I see him having a big night and leading the Tigers to the Convo (McClains home away from home). McClain 54, Unioto 38. That looks like a pretty good prediction for the score. Mcclain is not a team that will score a lot of points, especial...
