So, are we 5th-seed?

Well, Sam beat Tech last night, so it's likely going to be Sam 1 and Tech 2 in the tournament.
I think we'll wind up tied for 4th with middle. Don't know how the tie breaker would work.
They’ll definitely avoid La Tech because they’ll never reach the semis. One and done. Mass exodus to follow. 🤡
Glad Sam won the conference.
As much as BJ Trumpistas is full of it, he may be right.🙄
I've said, and I stand by it, that the Miners are capable of beating any team in the conference on a neutral court on a given night. I don't think they have the consistency to do it three games in a row. But I'll go out on a limb and predict that they make the semis.
You're right, and I'm not sure which of those I'd rather play. I guess it doesn't matter.
You might be right, and there's essentially no difference between the 4th and 5th seed (they'll play the same games regardless). It's better than the last-place finish we were staring at a couple of weeks ago.
If i had to bet money, I'd say we lose before the semis. Nothing tells me otherwise.
Fili is so poor he can afford to pay attention.
Why are they having Basketball tournament in a prison town?? Or is Huntsville somewhere else m I'm too busy to Google it up.

This website is great for setting up the bracket and seeds. Just plug in who you think will win and it shows you the bracket and seeds. If Western Kentucky wins, UTEP could be a 4th seed.
I like the outside the box thinking having the Basketball tournament in a prison. Next year they should do in Folsom prison and the year after at Alcttaz. He at least we know it will be packed crowd. The prisoners could be ball boys and refs. Brilliant idea. I wish I thought of this first. 😁😁
Huntsville, AL is not a prison town. Actually it is a really nice town, with NASA's Space and Rocket Center and the Army's Redstone Arsenal located there. Ah, hell, why am I even bothering to respond to this?
I think that's just a coincidence. Usually, those decisions are based on money bids. For example, UNLV isn't in the Pac 12, but Vegas hosts their conference championship.
I googled and there is like 4 jails around that area. I would say it's a prison town.
I think the superintendent of EP Catholic schools worked there and he said the same thing to my Catholic order a couple years ago. It’s also called “The Rocket City”
So the proximity of LA Tuna makes El Paso a prison town?
Vegas hosts the WAC, WCC, Pac 12 and Mountain West Tournaments. WAC and WCC are on different weeks, so they are both at the Orleans Arena, Pac 12 in T Mobile, and MWC at Thomas and Mack.
There are still multiple arenas available for the CUSA tournament. But geographically it may not make sense.
Of course. But my point in response to another post was that there doesn't have to be a home school to host a conference championship, and that relocating from Frisco had nothing to do with UNT leaving CUSA.
Yes, I got that. I was just expanding upon your answer so Fili would understand a little better!
There was another one in the city I think. I googled and there was a jail and another one . But I was thinking of Huntsville, Texas.
I still don't understand why CUSA basketball tournament is in Alabama.
$$$$. Because they put in a higher bid than anyone else. I mean, you do know there's an Alabama team in CUSA right?
The number to CUSA headquarters is (214) 774-1300. I'm sure they would love to discuss the matter with you. They open Monday at 8:00am.
Huntsville, AL is only a hour and half south of those of us that live in Nashville and only an hour south of Murfreesboro (MTSU). It’s also close to WKY and Jax St. I can see why they bid on the tournament and it’s not a bad place to spend a few days.
GO MINERS!
GO MINERS!

Liberty's a tough matchup, but at least we proved we can beat them.
We beat them at their house. We can beat them on a neutral floor. But just because we can doesn't mean we will.
