Flyer opponents 2018-19 and games of note
Looks like tonight is the start of the season for many teams the Flyers will face.
So far -
Fordham 106(!) City College of NY 58
Davidson, UMass, VCU, St Louis and Rhode Island win.
But GW loses to Stony Brook
Lasalle loses to Temple
George Mason loses to Penn.
Lots of games on ESPN+. Almost too many to follow them all. Good problem to have.
Go Flyers tomorrow night!

The LaSalle loss to Temple was not a surprise and George Mason was only a small favorite over Penn. The GW loss was pretty bad. Yes, they are predicted near the bottom of the A-10, but they were ahead 22-0(!) and still lost at home to an American East Conference team.

Ohio State over UC at UC yesterday, 64-56, to open UC's renovated arena...hard to beat anybody when you only score 56 points...UC only scored 18 points in the first half.

Sounds like UC either got the jitters or just had a bad night shooting. One guy scored 20 and the rest scored 34 on 22% shooting. Ouch. The Cincinnati Enquirer reporter said that he could say State played great defense, but that is really not what happened.

UC suffers from what once plagued the Buckeyes - a team full of great athletes, none of whom can put the ball in the basket!

I've been saying that the A10 is further down than people think. Agreed that we need to have a fantastic nc record. We can only drop one or two outside of MSU, Auburn and Butler, and we have to win one of those.

This was not a one-off type problem.
Lack of offense has been a consistent problem at UC for Cronin's entire tenure. Their defense is good, the offense not so much.

Embarrassing loss for Richmond to a little school out in the boonies, Farmville, just south of Richmond. Then Mason loses to some unknown neighbor, American.
How you lookin' so far A10? Not good, not good.

If that’s our conference’s 4th best team this year, then we’re in for a LONG season.

I did not watch the actual game but was watching the score and play by play on my phone. Davidson was down most of the game. Pulled it out at the very end. Tie score and 4s left. Dartmouth player fouls Grady taking a 3. He makes them all.

We may win this league yet. SLU beat Troy (the university, not the high school) by 4 AT HOME, LaSalle lost to Lafayette by 1 AT HOME, and Fordham lost at Houston Baptist by 3. On the bright side, there were our Flyers manhandling Coppin State by 30 (in a game that wasn’t that close), St. Weldaventure beating Jackson State by 31, and Duquesne taking care of Bill & Mary by 14.

They followed it up with a loss at home to Sienna. Next two are UVA and Michigan. Virtually certain to begin 0-4. The conference is looking pathetic from an early perspective.

Checked the box score. They shot 16-34 FTs (47%), and two guys (Nolan & Toro) combined to go 4-16. I don’t thing Sean Finn, Matt Cooper, and Marco Pikaar combined could shoot FTs that badly.

If I was a team that is supposed to be a high seed in the A10 this season, I wouldn't necessarily call it "fear", but I sure would take note of Obi and what he suddenly adds to almost every aspect of Dayton's play, especially with Josh Cunningham not even in the equation yet.

I agree we see a lot of promise and good things from Obi. But … lets wait and see how he does against guys his size, and can match his skill level.... We won't have to wait too long ... the Bahama teams got several of those kinda guys...

Buffalo beat Arizona in the NCAA Tourney last season by 21 points and returns 6 of their top 7 scorers. They are pretty good. It will be interesting to see what they do against Syracuse and St. Bonaventure.

Looking forward to seeing how Obi plays against Butlers Joey Brunk. Might be the first real test for our freshman stud.

Earlham are the quakers, now known as the society of friends. If their opponent scores a basket, they turn the other cheek and let them have the ball back.

Comparing Capital to Earlham is like saying Duke and Coppin are both D1. I lived in Hanover and Huntington, and have seen this league play.

Earlham actually just announced they are suspending their football program because they've lost 53 games in a row! Maybe they should shutter that basketball program as well

Not too many people have even heard of Earlham College..... In just a happenstance opportunity right after I got out of college, I ended up playing summer amature baseball in Indianapolis with one of their former coaches... Del Harris... Yes he coached their baseball team in addition to basketball and was quite a good pitcher …. long before becoming a famous pro basketball coach. From Wikipedia:
Harris was coach at Earlham College in Richmond, Indiana for nine seasons, building a record of 175-70 (.714) as he led the Quakers to three Conference (2 Hoosier Collegiate Conf. & 1 Hoosier-Buckeye Collegiate Conf) titles and two Top-12 rankings. His best seasons were 1967–68 when they were ranked 6th in the NAIA final polls with a 25-3 record, making him a finalist for NAIA national coach of the year, and in 1970–71, when the Quakers achieved a record of 24-5. In that year they won the HBCC and reached the National Tournament, losing in the 2nd round. He remains, today, as the Earlham coaching leader in wins and winning percentage. He led the Quakers to 15 conference or tournament titles during his tenure.[2]
Now back to something we care about.....

Earlham is where former UD Football Coach, the late Rick Carter, got his start.

Looks like UD has a surprisingly decent chance to win the conference. Everyone looks terrible to questionable.
Teams in the A10 are going to have a tough time with JC and OBI.

Always a good day when X loses, especially at home.
No sign of party boy Sam Miller at CofC ???
Dukes had miracle comeback to win in OT against awful UIC at home.
Is the conference off to a rough start????? We have only one more loss than the Big 12, Big East, Big 10, ACC, & Pac 12...………………………. COMBINED!!!!!!

The A-10 Non-Conference is Embarassing
The A-10 is setting itself up as a one bid conference this year by extraordinarily poor play in the non-conference portion of the schedule. Saint Joseph's appears to be the most competent
program to date.

You should read their message board, there is a Fire Dave Paulsen thread lol
btw all those Rhody fans who thought it would be an easy transition (contend for the A10 Title) from Hurley to Cox in the 1st year, even though they lost all those players... Welcome to Dayton 2017-2018, it could be a tough year for them... And I'm laughing lol, they got all fat and happy ha

That's the metric I was searching for, but afraid to find it. Really a sad predicament. We tried to help by unloading Coppin State, but alas, no success. An RPI killer.

Not sure what’s worse right now:
-Being an A10 supporter, with moderate expectations, and seeing your Conference brethren losing winnable games by a few points to lower-level opponents; or
-Being a Big East supporter, with high expectations, and seeing your Conference brethren losing games by large margins to opponents who were your perceived “equals”.
I know I’d rather have high expectations and meet them, but this does put an interesting perspective on things.

Early returns seem to be:
-B1G could have a very good year;
-ACC and Big East might be in for down years, compared to recent history; and
-The A10 Tourney will be a dogfight, as teams compete for the only bid that’s likely to come to our Conference.

I just checked the conference standings, and there’s a handful of schools that are doing OK so far, record-wise. In addition to Davidson, other undefeated teams include our Flyers, SLU, St. Joe’s, VCU, and Duquesne. But yes, there are some real dumpster fires at the bottom of the conference, with LaSalle, George Mason, and GW all being winless at this point.
We may yet get 2 or 3 teams in The Dance, but the margin for error is parchment-thin

A young, hungry and athletic Ohio State team won at Creighton last night and is playing like a true team. With wins at UC and Creighton, they are going to surprise a lot of teams this season.
Holtman is a great coach...nobody in C'bus is upset that they lost out on Archie.

Brian Gregory is 2-0 on the young season, first time that program has started 2-0 since 2014. Not great competition but still, happy for him.

More Big Ten wins, and ACC and Big East losses. Could be a banner year upcoming for the regional P5 schools.

Davidson had an odd squeaker over Wichita State 57-- 53. Neither team shot well, except Davidson's stud player threw down 33 points with a bunch coming at the line. And he took over the game by scoring the last 12 points.
Remember the name Gudmundsson.

Their real stud is Grady and he was held to only a few points I think, which is the most impressive part about the win. WSU looks to be in for an usually rough year.

Yes, I agree, Holtmann is a great coach. I think that he will produce Matta-like results or better in Columbus. He seems really classy too, very likeable IMO.

Crap. We are going in the wrong direction. Down to #22. I expect this to get turned around shortly.

with NET, RPI is generally useless (always been useless but used by committee in past so up to now has been useless but important). Advanced metrics are key now, kenpom has A-10 #9 conference behind P-5, BE, AAC, and WCC (Gonzaga, St. Mary's, etc.). Barely ahead of Mountain West and Missouri Valley.

Fair enough, I am glad to hear that the A10 is #9 on kenpom.
I just went out to my garage and got my crowbar out to open my wallet with and bought a one year subscription to kenpom.com for $19.95.
I guess that I will have to get with the program regarding this newfangled, high tech, statistically-advanced NET rating system.
But, I still think all of this NET subterfuge is just being used as an excuse to job the non-p5 teams.

Just through some quick browsing of kenpom, there is a lot of information on there that I have never seen elsewhere...looking forward to exploring kenpom further...it is a different way of analyzing college basketball.
