Wow, what’s up with Gannon getting obliterated? Any loss in the Elite 8 isn’t really a surprise because all teams are good, but getting blown out by 34? That team was really good all year. Did they just wilt under the heat of the bright lights? Is this an indication that the region is falling behind or a blip on the radar screen?
The Gannon women were also a one-and-done, but they were at least competitive.

Gannon has a post on their men’s basketball page stating that the 3-23 to 32-3 turnaround is the biggest improvement in NCAA history. That’s a great story in itself. As for their women, they did lose in overtime and had chances. Chalk that one up to lack of Elite 8 experience maybe.
Matchups are important as we know and maybe the Gannon men just drew a team that was their perfect antidote. CSUSB did shoot a ridiculous percentage for the game though and obviously it didn’t carry over to the matchup with Nova.

Yeah, I think that's nine guys. That has to be one of most difficult coaching jobs in D2 basketball.
He could do big things at a better school.
All he's doing now is prepping kids for their next stop.
It's actually amazing he puts somewhat competitive teams on the floor.

They hired out of our Region the last time.
Does anybody see any potential Atlantic coach going for the job?
D1 destination job? No. But, it is the foot in the D1 door (that leads to greener pastures).

Cal State shot about 260% from 3 pt range lol but they were just overall bigger than Gannon. Heart and hustle can only get you so many boards when your biggest guy appears to be smaller than their shortest. Gannon had no rhythm offensively at any point.
Disappointed to see Nova lose, but what a great game!!!
