St. Bonaventure Game December 30th
UB_Prush replied to Buffalobonnie's topic in Buffalo Bulls Basketball
Biggest rivals? I think you are confusing them with Syracuse. A team who has had a notable accomplishment or two in the last 50 years. -
While we were doing battle on other threads
UB_Prush replied to ChubbyHubby's topic in Buffalo Bulls Basketball
Not his best showing. He goes on at the 14 minute mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kY1dfik795U -
I can't speculate any better than anyone about Battle as a potential coach, but considering he was known as Mr. Textbook, I wouldn't expect the high tempo free flowing play that we've recently grown accustomed to. Anything is possible, and I loved him as a player but I'd be very skeptical.

UB_Prush replied to Kevin's topic in Buffalo Bulls Basketball
Yeah, I’ll duck out early, I’m at Thirsty Buffalo right now, my regular watering hole and one of the GM’s is already planning for it -

I mean yes but last year and freshman... we can beat both teams, who knows which will be easier, it’s survive and advance and on any given day we can beat sbyone. -

Predicting UB’s NCAA Tournament Seed
UB_Prush replied to yussi1870's topic in Buffalo Bulls Basketball
But the thing there was everyone wanted us to slay a blue blood. We’re less established than either of our potential opponents but we are no longer the underdogs, so this will be interesting. Trying to be objective I’d still think neutrals would pull for us. We’re fun to watch and have a great team/staff. -
Predicting UB’s NCAA Tournament Seed
UB_Prush replied to yussi1870's topic in Buffalo Bulls Basketball
The potential storyline is great but location terrible. If we end up with St. John’s it evens out a bit but the question is now that we’re arent the underdog on paper going in, how much of the neutral crowd gets behind us? -
It obviously doesn't guarantee anything but it helps the cause. The only other real option is to go soccer style and base it entirely on conference play which makes the most sense in the fact that it rewards the best team over the course of a length of time but eliminates the system of truncating a season to 2-4 elimination games which will not go away in this country.

Ultimate Nate Oats Thread - Future/Staying/Growth/Articles
UB_Prush replied to Kevin's topic in Buffalo Bulls Basketball
In fairness in a single year that doesn't mean much. I mean St Bonaventure plays in a lower ranked conference than us this year but on most years they are slightly ahead of us as a conference). They often get 2-3 tourney teams while we just get one. If a school like that located in the Amish country can recruit talent like they do to compete (near the bottom for 50 years) of a conference like that then surely we could do equally or better. -
That’s what they do, win (nearly half the time) playing snooze fest b-ball. Even when we win we lose having to sit through that garbage but such is life. The worst thing is if someone were to beat us I’d want a good showing from the MAC at the Dig Dance. Akron just plays to not lose, yeah sure they'll can keep it close and lose by respectful scorelines to good teams, but someone like Toledo I’d prefer representing the MAC since they might actually win a game, and could actually do so in respectable fashion.

Ultimate Nate Oats Thread - Future/Staying/Growth/Articles
UB_Prush replied to Kevin's topic in Buffalo Bulls Basketball
I def agree with the first 2 points. The third may still be a stretch but I think a conference move will have to happen at some point. It may still be early for that and the conference in question still up in the air but that will prob have to happen. -
Yep, gg Akron, no way you can blow this...

They also have a Hofbrauhaus if you don't feel like waiting around indefinitely for the one in Buffalo to open up. I do really love Cleveland but I'd be doing a disservice if I didn't post this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZzgAjjuqZM
