As I posted all the way back in the week 6 chat thread:
-
Fun to see the Vikes rolling again. I was certain we were done tonight when we were down 12 with roughly 4:00 to go, but they didn't give up. Augie put on a press in the final minutes that seemed to really throw off the Mustangs.
There was a time a few weeks ago when I was not looking forward to the NSIC Tournament. Now I'm a little more curious about what the Vikes will be able to do. That being said, other than 2014-15 and 2015-16, I don't recall the NSIC Tourney being a friend to us, so I'm not going to get too overconfident (shocking, I know).
Really hoping for a strong postseason run for the Vikings.

Only four of the regions have any consistent discussion on this site: Central, West, Midwest, and Atlantic. All the South Central has is a West Texas A&M basketball thread over on the football side. The South, Southeast, and East have nothing.

Hmm...as someone who has been around longer than you, I can remember the early days that showed the amount of threads and posts by region (perhaps by conference). I remember talking to buddies about how we have more posts that then the rest of D2 combined. The chatter hear was intense and pickem was awful to try to keep up with. Now, it's just really gotten quiet. You couldnt go an hour without one of the large number of Winona posters to comment going back 10-15 years. Now they have what, two active posters?
Success breeds chatter, jutlst how it goes.

On an Augie note, I'm pretty excited about this USF game. If we play like we did this past weekend, we have a chance to get them back from a few weeks ago. And with this season not exactly meeting/exceeding expectations, the next best thing would be helping to keep USF out of the Regional in what is the best D2 season they've ever had.

Not saying MIAA ever had more posts or conversations than NSIC, just that it has went down for MIAA overall and NW in the last 5-6 years.
Edit: For context, including this season there have been 21 seasons since 2000. NW has had 17 20+ win seasons, 1 19 win season, and the aforementioned 3 sub .500 seasons. National championships are new for the program but it has been a successful program for a long time.Last edited by NWHoops; 02-18-2020, 09:03 AM.

Actually there was quite a bit more discussion among all the MIAA folks, including Bearcat fans, prior to the changes in the regions. We just weren't in the same region as the nsic at that time so you weren't familiar. My username and join date speak for themselves. Definitely not D1 material though.

If I remember right bearcat BB chatter was null and void along with attendance until well after they started winning.
