  I don't know a thing about Dayton this season, so what should I expect? 1 and done?
• se-alum

  

  Dayton is pretty inconsistent, beat some good teams lost to some teams they shouldn't have. I wouldn't expect them to beat OSU, but they are certainly capable of it.

  People that work dayturn, are kind of screwed from watching this one. 12:15 start time. They start these games way too early in the day.

  Its unfortunate that there's no system in place whereby an employee could take a specified amount of time off of work and still get paid for those hours.

  As a UD grad go Flyers! Do I expect them to win, of course not. I could see UD losing by 20 plus as easily as I could see them winning by 5. Being a fan of probably one of the most inconsistent mid-major programs in the nation sucks, but after the January UD had I am thrilled that they actually made the tournament, win or lose. I would rather lose in the first round of the tournament every year than make decent runs in the NIT.

  Usually root for the B10 to do well in the tournament, but OSU isnt going to win it all so I would rather see UD win this one.

  Really good article by Rick Reilly on Aaron Craft.

  Does every fucking Craft article get gayer than the previous one?
  

  He doesn't drink. He doesn't have sex. And he doesn't have much of a jumper.

  Are you fucking serious?

  It's Rick Reilly. Dude probably deep throated him just so he could use it in the article.
• birddog23

  Craft will go off the deep end eventually. I'm thinking hookers, motorcycle, and partying with Bruce Pearl

  God I cannot wait until he graduates and we never hear a word about him again. Hes Chris Kramer version 2.0 from Purdue. Hard nosed, tough, good defender with zero offense and stayed 4 years and seemed like he was there forever.

  lol, EXACT? you sure, now--not close, not similar, but EXACT...right?

  Yes, and apparently you have no actual reason for disagreeing as you just point out a capitalization.
  
  Editrobably going to respond and answer that Craft averaged like 2 more points a game or something along those lines, so they cant possibly be the same lol

  Looks like KB hurt vball's feelings talking about his boy

  I capitalized EXACT because you did, that's all....and I didn't know I had to have a reason to disagree??
• Classyposter58

  

  Anyone else pissed they're in Session 1 on Thursday? Was thinking about going to Buffalo, but tickets are outrageous since Syracuse is in the same session. The second session is cheap as fuck

  Suggesting I need help....but have no actual reason to disagree with my comparison? Sure, makes plenty of sense.
  
  Generally A disagreement is because two people have opposing views, AKA a reason. But apparently this is a new concept to you lol

  Go Flyers! That's where I got my M.B.A. Excellent school and excellent program.
  
  My cousin got his Ph.D. from Ohio State, so naturally we made a wager on the game. If Ohio State wins, I am going to put the money in an antique piggy bank and let him figure out how to get it out.
  
  He and I both had the same impression of our teams-- both have been very inconsistent. Dayton beat two ranked teams on the road and lost to another by one point. We lost to Southern Cal in overtime. Yet Dayton also lost to some poor teams and lost three times to St. Joe's. Ohio State has gone through more or less the same kind of season. Either team could be in the top ten right now if they had just played up to their ability.
  
  I have to disagree with you on calling the A-10 a mid-major conference. Mid-majors don't put four teams in the NCAA's. The A-10 is a major conference and has beaten many highly-ranked teams. I expect our teams to make some noise in this year's tournament. Who know? Dayton might beat OSU and I'll get some money from my cousin!
