Manyawu the Sophomore big was a transfer from Wyoming. He was a game changer in many games and would be the guy I would point to in this scenario. I would still agree that it’s reasonable to question how he’d address the NIL era coming from D2/Drake. Personally I think he’d win building a system...

Reminds me of Keno Davis’s first season so… he’ll probably end up somewhere else. I’m hoping it ends differently in the tournament. Big difference was Keno didn’t amount to much at Providence. This coach feels different (hopefully not a long term guy at Iowa).

Tix booked, now let’s stonewall these bums. Ride the hot goalie is always a good plan!

It is indeed very deliberate and slow. They have the slowest pace in the NCAA so it is not the offense many will want to watch. The goal though is still to play fast in their offense. They run what he calls the Ocean Ball Screen Offense. Coaches is the MVC were going berserk this season asking...

Drake with its first lead with about 9 to play and currently on 8-0 run to go up 5 at the 8 under. Stirtz taking over to start the half but tremendous team defense has been the difference here lately. Now just time to finish.

Drake down 12 late in the first half to Belmont. Dangerous game they're playing regarding an NCAA bid if they lose today.

In basketball that gives you a chance at a Natty! Technically just need to be a Top 8 seed and you have a chance. This is much better than that too!

I think it’s because all the Quad 1 games exist in the SEC/B1G. It’s become silly at this point. It’s become even more clear with our season in particular highlighting the absurdity. Then we somehow saw a good amount of parity in the NCAA tournament (and NIT with Ind St) regardless of the...

Bradley is the only team left that has beaten Drake, however Belmont today is no slouch. UNI had taken them to the wire the other day (so nice to see them gone), but Bradley is also solid enough to remove the argument of another “bad loss” if it occurs in the championship game. Then again that’s...

I’m also on the Drake board and there was a significant enough contingent that complained about the hire before the season that the AD even mentioned it recently. It was a ballsy hire at the time and it has more than paid off for the Bulldogs. Whomever gets him next will be getting a heck of a...

https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/44099476/mens-college-basketball-2025-mid-low-major-coaches-power-conference-potential-2025 Hey our guy with a team that only shoots 3 and dunks/layups is available! 18. Bryan Hodgson, Arkansas State Red Wolves Hodgson seems well-suited...

It’s so weird how much has changed even since I was in school. I can’t help but think of Creighton as “One of us”. Just wait til St Thomas joins.

This does lend me to believe Ben will be back. Traditionally teams didn’t fire coaches mid season too often, however the game absolutely has changed with the portal/NIL being so important. Duke’s assistant coach leaving after the end of the regular season is incredible to me. We are setting...

Outside of being a (oh sorry… almost lost my lunch saying it…) Cowboys fan, this sounds about right for 90% of Gopher fans out there. Of course this board is going to have the other 10% on both sides be the loudest because it’s a fan board after all. Go Gophers!

What’s weird about mid majors is how they almost need to be perfect and even then they’ll be discredited. Drake (27-3) went 3-0 in their non-con tourney beating all three P4/5 schools by double digits. They then went on the road and beat a decent K State team. If they had lost last week to Mo...

The Bulldogs have definitely struggled at home in recent weeks. Our star in Stirtz has been nursing something with his wrist as of late, but they just absolutely refuse to lose. They remind me of the Vikes a couple years back with the amount of 1 score victories (5-0 in OT). I would and wouldn’t...

Drake with 2 free throws with less than 10 seconds remaining in back to back weeks to force OT. Missouri state shoots 10-16 from 3, but goes cold as Drake wins 68-60 in OT. Crazy season for the Bulldogs 27-3.

Drake at home trying to lose arguably the biggest upset in Missouri Valley history after clinching the league and remove any hope of an at large. Missouri St has fewer wins (2) in the Valley than Drake has losses all year (3). March Madness starting early this year.

The go routes were great, but yeah I did notice the out and even the circus looked like picks waiting to happen in the pros. Happy to hear the good things we’ve seen after the season has ended. It’s been so long since we’ve had a QB show up in the pros. Would be fun (even if only a long term...

Brennan seems to be one of those guys that needs to see his first shot go down then anything can happen. He was the hot hand in the first half for sure. Actually we almost blew the game not playing him and Frank in the 2nd half enough, but thankfully it wasn’t too late when the coaches finally...
