I'm sad this won't be broadcast...it was entertaining hearing fsn try to call the game with 3000 screaming children behind him

For some reason, some of my prospective Honors students are choosing between Anderson and Liberty. Until this semester, I had never even heard of Anderson, but evidently they offer a lot of full ride academic scholarships to home schoolers.

Are you sure it is Anderson of SC or Anderson of IN. I'm sure Haize can tell you stories about the latter.

It is getting tougher to find those that don't. The Ivy League is awash in them these days.

Let's break a couple of numbers down. The stated total attendance was 653. The article said that over 600 school children were there. So that means less then 50 "regular" fans were in attendance.
We had 1 less TO then they did and 'only' out rebounded them by 9.

Just because YOU don't care..
Our saving grace is that no matter what else happens we have always won the Big South and been able to go to the Tournament. If we were to go to one of those mythical FBS conferences we are in top secret negotiations that no one can talk about we can't expect the same paradigm.

Anderson is perennially top 20 in DII. The close nature of the outcome doesn't surprise me in the least.

Funny jbock, but I didn't see any comments from you after the Radford game. I guess you only show up after less than stellar performances from the ladies.

Was his post wrong? I don't care if they are a top 20 D2 team or not. He is spot on.

Did I say he was wrong??? I was alluding to the fact that he was silent after the dominating win over Radford. He is the one of the first to criticize when they don't play well though.

In all fairness he was the first one to CARE about this game.
