Fordham at VCU is on MASN  and St.Joe's-Richmond is on NBC Sports Washington.

I mentioned this in the previous 'Other Games' thread, but will post it again here for those of you who missed it, Maryland twin post players Makhi and Makhel Mitchell transferred last week, they are local guys who attended McNamara and Wilson while in high school. It may be a long shot for GW to land them, but I'm sure Jamion Christian will make an attempt to get them. Their mother actually took to social media to rip Mark Turgeon for how he treated them, she has since deleted her tweets, but I found another link which screenshotted what she posted.

Some strong teams in A10 but seems like the league is unbalanced based on some of the 1st game scores.  A top tier and An equal amount of poor teams (I include GW in the latter). 

The head to head match ups on the top tier will go a long way to deciding how many teams get in.

A 14 point Duquesne win over St. Louis got my attention.  Eric Williams is the latest Duke to leave but Marcus Weathers, a transfer from Miami, OH, has more than adequately replaced him (26 points on 8-10 shooting in this game).  Sincere Carry had 5 boards and 8 assists last night and another Akron transfer, 5' 8" Tavian Dunn-Martin, hit 5 three pointers and scored 21 off the bench.  The Bills bring back French and Goodwin but the rest of their lineup is unrecognizable for the most part.  Each team only had 2 losses coming into the game so I'd have to believe that Duquesne, despite a very soft OOC schedule, could be a factor for a double bye this season. 

PKGW,  at least GW will have some very winnable games against the likes of Fordham and St.Joe's, and maybe UMass. Earlier in the OOC, it was looking as if GW would be in last place by themselves.

Davidson has been the most disappointing A-10 team in the OOC. Davidson was picked to finish 1st or 2nd(ahead of Dayton) by most outlets, but ended up going 6-6 in non-conference play. They didn't pick up any good wins and lost to Wake Forest and Charlotte(2 games in which they were the favored to win). On paper, Davidson looked like they could be a top 25 team, I'm not sure what the issue is with them?

Georgetown at Seton Hall   9 on FS1 - Georgetown played without Matt McClung( AU guard Sa'eed Nelson accidently poked him in the eye last weekend) in their first Big East game at Providence and got blown out. I'm not sure what McClung's status is tonight, but if he's out, Georgetown will probably get blown out again. Georgetown had played well after the 4 players left the team due to the remaining rotation players/starters playing big minutes. Georgetown couldn't afford to have any of the 6 rotation players getting injured because there doesn't appear to be a "cupcake" among the other 9 Big East teams.  

Thomas...agree that Fordham, UMass and St. Joes are winable conference games for GW.  Sadly, these may be the only winable games.    I think the conference is fairly balanced, with the exceptions being Dayton and VCU on the top, and St. Joes and GW at the bottom.  (Maybe Fordham is a bottom feeder again also).  The other 9-10 teams can probably stay with each other.   All in all, have to be pleased with the conference's uptick this season.

Maryland is up 73-41 on Indiana .

Great slate of games today, lots of good matchups

I know UNC has a couple of key guys out, but man this is the worst Tar Heel team I've ever seen. GT isn't any good (they lost to Ball State by 18 at home earlier this year), and UNC just lost by 13 to them at home, 96-83. The ACC has been pretty terrible this year, but you just know that they'll get a ton of bids as usual.

Tell ya which ACC team does NOT suck:

America's most underrated Coach, Leonard Hamilton's #12  KenPom, 13-2 Florida St Seminoles!  

BC(or anyone else who saw the end of Notre Dame-Syracuse),  did you think that Notre Dame fouled the Syracuse guard who hit the 3 at the buzzer?? For those of you who didn't see the end of that game, Notre Dame hit a free throw to put them up by 4 with seconds left, Syracuse came down, missed a couple three pointers, but kept getting the offensive rebounds, on the final attempt, the Syracuse guard hit the 3 at the buzzer and may have been fouled or flopped!! It was close because he did flop, but there may have been contact on his follow through motion. For some reason, 2 Notre Dame players ran towards the Syracuse guard and contested his shot as if they were up by 3 or less, and the game was on the line!!

DMVPiranha,  I think Cole Anthony is the only guy missing, Bacot(the other 5-star freshman) returned a few games ago. A poster(FQ??) mentioned that North Carolina has several starters/rotation players who aren't your typical North Carolina 5-star recruits, I think he wrote that 1 or 2 of their guys transferred up from mid-majors. Maybe some elite recruits were scared off by the grade fixing scandal involving North Carolina, this is quite a fall from grace for North Carolina. Georgia Tech will likely be a bottom-tier ACC as you indicated. 

The Dude,  one of Rutgers key players(Geo Baker) suffered an injury and may be out for a while. It's unfortunate because it looks like they have a team capable of making the NCAA tournament. AGAIN, Maryland started out the game looking sluggish and then were able to just "flip on the intensity switch" late in the 1st half, and dominate Indiana!! Maryland has done this in just about every game this year, and it works most of the time because of their high level of talent, but the sluggish starts will cost them against quality teams(like their next game against Ohio State), and maybe against a 12 or 13 seed in the 1st round of the NCAA tournament who gets off to a hot start. You're right about Shaka Smart, he's going to find himself on the bubble again this year because they'll have an 9-9 or 8-10 conference record with decent metric numbers due to the conference they play in.
