Dayton to the Final Four

[B1231]

You can try to coach Dayton (or just about any college team) to a NCAA Basketball Championship at http://www.bethecoachbasketball.com. It's a pretty cool simulation game - a slightly addictive timewaster.

See if you can do it without Brian Roberts!

I was hoping that you had a vision, ala Eli Stone

If they make the Final Four of the A-10 Tournament for once, I'd be happy. :frog:

Pretty cool game. I tried it and one of the made up names for one of my players was "Norman Plummer". He was really good. All-Conference his sophomore year and All-American his junior and senior years. He led the Flyers to 3 A-10 titles and a national championship during his junior year! I'm not sure if that was a coincidence or if the designers have a sense of humor (there was also a guy named Xavier on my team).

	Xavier XAVIER MUSKETEERS Dayton's biggest rival dating back to the early 1900s. Founded in 1831, Xavier University is a Jesuit, Catholic university in Cincinnati, Ohio. Its three colleges offer 78 undergraduate majors, 43 minors and 11 graduate programs to 6,646 total students, including 3,961 undergraduates. The University is the sixth-oldest Catholic university in the nation and one of 28 Jesuit colleges and universities nationwide. Xavier's nickname is the Musketeers and are fellow A10 Conference members.

You got me. It's called "frog," but to me it looks like something completely different. Anyways I was just trying to show that my post was partially in jest.

If your OSU football team would ever win a big football game against a good team would you be happy?

Who do you like in college football John R? As much as I hate Ohio State they have been to the National Championship 2 straight years.

And who is YOUR football team Big John??? Division 1 that is, you know BCS...

[captaincareful]

I can never get a good team in this. When I get an apparently good team, I always end up going like 2-6.

Don't really have one,

I could say who ever plays OSU however to answer your question I have never got on the bandwagon on any team

Its alot easier on Saturday not getting down as I do on most Sundays when the Browns play.

So I do watch college football and enjoy it its just I have never had a team that I care for.

I've always kind of wondered about this one too. I don't think it's possible for it to mean anything other than what we think it does.

I'm happy with what the program has done since Tressel took over, and yes they have won at least one big game in that time (2002 Fiesta Bowl). Actually they've won several other big games (BCS bowl games and regular season), but what do you really care? I'd love to see the Flyers approach that level of success on the hardwood, but I'm not holding my breath.

Im starting to think you would be a better poster on the OSU Football board since you seem to want to talk about them more the UD basketball

Division 1-A is FBS. Division 1-AA is FCS. Division 1 does not necessarily mean BCS.

Wow, you made it far enough that the game ended because your character passed away? Impressive (in a morbid sort of way)! I made it through 20 seasons, I earned 7 conference titles, 2 Elite Eight appearances, but couldn't get any further.

It was my third attempt at the game. Apparently, you can only play 50 seasons. I think I ended up #3 on the all-time list
