Presby is a very bipolar team. They have some good wins, and bad losses.
But having said that, they play so many tough teams, that they aren't afraid anymore to backdown from a challenge. That can only be good for them in the future.

I think they are one of the better basketball teams in the big south right now.

I think it's funny that we want so bad to be the team that does this. Winthrop, Gardner-Webb, and now Presby. And I'm sure another BSC team has pulled a huge upset that I can't think of or don't know of. But never us. And our football team sucks too.

It really puts things into prospective doesn't it? Excellent point.

Yeah, but a 16 seed over a 16 seed isn't an upset

Yes but LSU isn't too good in men's basketball. Probably a game Coastal should have won anyway.

We'd be pumped up if we had beaten them. I'd bet my season tix that even an in-conference win will be a rare thing this year, much less an OOC against a BCS conference opponent. Presby might be the team to beat this year.

FB is better than sucks. I agree with your premise but my opinion as to who was in process of puttong us over the top and would have had a couple more BSC Championship by now would cause a current administrative uproar.

I'm not going to lie, I'm starting to get hints of jealousy for the other teams in the Big South that are getting it done. In two weeks, Coastal has beaten Clemson & LSU, Presby has beaten Cinci, and SB has received a playoff bid. Our athletic department has some work to do.

threadjack coming lol but if you are talking about the arena, there are smaller arenas then the Lahaye.
Atlantic Hockey Association has teams that play in arenas listed smaller than the LayHaye.
Lockers and and a field house would probably be built that's just about it. It's not like they have to go for a 40 million dollar make over like Penn State with a new arena.
and If they apply for the AHA they fit in with teams facility wise and they play with teams in PA, MA, NY, CN and the farthest team being Air Force.
Alabama Huntsville spent an average 2-3 million per year on Hockey.

Add this result to the list:
Campbell 77, Iowa 61
And as I put on the winthropfans.com board...
since most of us don't know much about them, let me introduce you to Eric Griffin, Campbell's 6'8", 190 lb senior, who is the early front-runner for Big South Player of the Year:
Tonight against Iowa he shoots 10 for 11 from the field for 23 pts w/ 13 boards and 6 blocks.
For the season, through 5 games:
19.6 ppg, 9.2 rpg, 3.4 bpg, 75.5 FG%
And this dunk against NC A&T earlier in the season:
