Around College Basketball 2019/20 Season

[quote="austour" post=380719][quote="Amaseinyourface" post=380502][quote="bamafan" post=380463]Utah St. hands San Diego St. only their second loss of the season in the conference T title game. Always like Utah St. for some reason, like BYU play great team ball. May open door for Dayton to get a one seed if they win their conference T at Barclays next week.[/quote]

Think that most likely means another NIT spot. Good chance Utah state was gonna be on the outside looking in of the NCAA.[/quote]

Well, not really because that means USU knocked a team out of the dance that will likely take their spot in the NIT.[/quote]

You’re right and I was trying to figure out a why after I posted it to convince myself it was true.

I would have thought both SD State and USU were both going dancing and their game was really a "seeding" game for the NCAA's. USU beat some good teams in LSU and the Gators

I was just checking ESPN's updated bubble watch column and it would appear you are probably right. In other news, needless to say STJ is not shown in the work to do list.
 
By most accounts, a very nice and hard working kid;

Work with a guy from Illinois and stopped watching them over the years. I always talk college hoops with him and told him they're good this year and will be really good next year with Curbelo (ugh) coming in. He's been watching every game now and sometimes he watches SJ games since he knows I won't shut up about it lol.
 
What a shame;

Per Rothstein
Sources: The Ivy League has cancelled its conference tournament due to coronavirus.

Regular season champion Yale will go to the NCAA Tournament.

Utah St. was probably on the outside looking in. That NIT spot goes to Nothern Iowa now, since they lost in the Missouri Valley.
 
Ivy League cancels conference tournament due to coronavirus

Wednesday cant come fast enough!


The Ivy League is cancelling their conference tournament due to the spread of coronavirus, the conference announced on Tuesday morning.

“We understand and share the disappointment with student-athletes, coaches and fans who will not be able to participate in these tournaments,” Ivy League Executive Director Robin Harris said. “Regrettably, the information and recommendations presented to us from public health authorities and medical professionals have convinced us that this is the most prudent decision.”

Yale, the league’s regular season champion, will be heading to the NCAA tournament. Princeton will receive the automatic bid to the women’s NCAA tournament.

This is the first Division I basketball tournament that has been cancelled, but it is not the first sporting event that will not be taking place. Tennis tournaments have been called off, European soccer leagues are shutting down and even in the college basketball ranks, Chicago State opted not to play games at Seattle or Utah Valley last week due to concerns over the virus.

The major question now centers on what happens next. The major conference tournaments start on Tuesday. Fans have purchased tickets, made travel arrangements and, if they need to, have paid for lodging. Those events run through the entire week. The NCAA tournament will start the week after that, and the money that comes in from the NCAA’s TV deal with CBS and Turner funds more than 85 percent of their operating budget for the year.

A decision is going to be made soon on what will happen. Will the events get cancelled? Will they be played without fans in attendance? Will they be moved to a centralized location?

I don’t know.

What I do know is that the Ivy League is not the last coronavirus announcement we are going to get this week.

This is getting crazy. I thought talk of empty arenas was stupid, but that would be preferable to this.

Seton Hall and Rutgers I would think will be on his list.
 
Justin Champagnie with 20 points on 9-11 midway through second half. Pitt & Wake tied at 48.
