We have 10 regular season games left. 7 of those 10 games are against teams with a top 50 RPI at this current moment. Of those 7 games 4 are at home. Of those 4 at home 3 are against top 25 RPI teams. We have a great opportunity to pick up some major wins. I love that we are in this conference. It obviously creates more challenges and will result in more losses than we have been used to but it give XU so many opportunities for quality wins.

Funny to think just days ago we had some arguing/implying that staying in the A10 would have been better for our program.

Lets get it done Muskies!

Amen. I love life in the Big East. Screw the A10. One slip-up in that conference is a devastating blow.

Though our conference record (5-4) is not pretty, you could argue the toughest portion of our schedule (@ Nova, @ Providence, @ Georgetown, @ Butler) is behind us. Still, tremendous opportunities ahead for this team.

Love the Big East.

Wow. Great information and X really has great chance at earning a decent seed.

Today on local Washington radio, Tony Kornheiser mentioned the Xavier - GTown game. One of his staffers said that Xavier swept GTown. Kornheiser said that "Well, that means that Xavier is better than GTown" and it was not in a sarcastic manner...in fact he repeated it.

We never, NEVER got a mention for beating George Washington. In fact GW is barely on any radar screen here. Yeah, life in the 2nd ranked league beats life in the 7-8th ranked league.

Big Time.

I listen to Kornheiser every day, he has actually brought up GW as being very good regularly this year. I'd say bball talk on that show this year has been %50 Maryland %30 Gtown %15 GW and %5 other.

Not a good night for basketball in the District, because GW also got drubbed...by MOR's favorite program.

GW bball lost to ND football?
Wait you mean OSU football? Or OSU bball?

Come on now, the wiz kids kept rolling in LA and John Wall was a board away from a triple double!

I think he is "Myles" past the corner at this point.

Myles is now channeling B Larkin with the shaved head.....and leading like him too.

Myles is reminding me of BJ Raymond. Started as a spot up shooter, but ultimately learned to get his own shot and to get to the rim. I loved Raymond as a jr and sr

I vaguely remember that he had a very memorable banquet speech but don't remember the details. Anyone who went remember?

He basically critiqued every other guy and offered detailed advice to correct their deficiencies on both a basketball and personal level. It was really long and painful.
