- Start date
Not only be playing small ball, but unless JQ comes back we will be playing small ball w/o a point guard. People in the know think he is coming back, but l have my doubts.
Some people refer to the cow college in Lee County as FAU. My apologies if that wasn't the case with @cola68
True...but if they were playing in a different conference during regular season play (say SEC), they may not have made the tourney. The team will make a lil noise, but they won't win the whole enchilada with a roster full of guards and one suspect big.
I thought that @cola68 was referring to the cow college when he mentioned FAU. I had already forgotten about the other FAU since I stopped watching March Madness after we lost to San Diego State. The Final Four field ended up being worse than a lot of pre-season holiday tournaments.
They would have done well in any conference … those players travelled
I agree that FAU would have lost more reg season games
The team was legitimate contender on any court in America
Not saying they were not a good team, but they "traveled" within their own conference. Had they "traveled" to Knoxville, Arkansas, Auburn, Tuscaloosa, KY, Miss St, LSU, etc,, on a consistent basis, I don't think they could hold up. An SEC sked wears a team down, regardless of sport.
A single team can catch lightening in a bottle with the right bracket in a given year. The Final Four was a result of a lot of upsets. It happens. Regardless, UConn was by far the most complete team. But FAU earned their right to play. Let's not diminish their feat.
I may be the only one on this board but I’m done with JQ. Wish him well I hope he makes a lot of money.
