Jesse's brother played at Gardner Webb, and graduated from there last year. He was their best player and one of the best in the A-Sun. You know Jesse's excited about the game tonight.

There's actually 7 conference games left - we play 18 this year.

If you wanna dream, dream big.

We win out. That means we finish with four losses in conference. It also means we beat both VMI and Radford giving them 3 losses. We would need each to lose to another school somewhere over the next seven games as well.

Will it happen? Doubt it. But it's possible.

VMI could lose to Radford

Radford lose to anybody else

I think that would do it




Of course we have to win out, including beating a Radford team that may be too big for us.

For the Number One Seed, the best case scenario is probably this

- VMI loses to someone besides Radford
- VMI beats Radford (Technically, someone else could beat Radford, but this is the most likely scenario)
- We win the rest of our conference games

That would put us all at 14-4 in the Conference and we would have a 3-1 combined record against VMI and Radford where as VMI would have a 2-2 record combined against us and Radford and Radford would have a 1-3 record combined against us and VMI. Thus, we would win the tiebreaker and the top three seeds would look like this:

1. Liberty
2. Radford (Because of being 1-1 against the top seed)
3. VMI (0-2 against top seed)

That's totally doable. Not very likely but not impossible either.

3. @Gardner Webb
4. @Coastal
5. Winthrop
6. @Chuck South

First important and most concern are different for me... Concern for me denotes how much faith (or doubt) I have regarding us winning the game. Importance is the weight of the game (especially when it concerns the standings) and it that I agree, that the most important game is tonight. As far as listing VMI as 4th, I did so because of how we played against them on their home floor.

He has been. I don't know if he still is.

JE said he missed a team meeting though.
