Should Jamestown be accepted into the NSIC?

[WSUWarriorFan]

Moving from the Central region basketball thread to the junk drawer.



I’m fortunate enough to have a full head at closer to 50 now than 40. Also no comb used in 20+ years (expect when they use one on me while getting a haircut), and never will enter the combover crew. Zero dollars will leave my pocket trying to fight it, should it happen eventually.

Thanks for bringing that to our attention. I randomly go into the hoops thread but usually not until Februaury or March.

If you want a true junk drawer experience get a reddit account and join the college football sub in the offseason. You'll have threads about how many punts it takes to get to the moon and which Beatless album best describes each big 12 coach.

It’s important sh!t like this that cannot, under any circumstances, fall through the cracks.

I have a Reddit account and I hate myself for it. What a cesspool. Damn

I only use it for the golf and college football subs. I refuse to go anywhere else.

Well, I will move my comment over as well. All of this started with a comment about a basketball coach getting hair plugs.

Why, people? Why? Just go bald gracefully.... I am, have accepted it and I just keep it cut short.
I was at The Barn once when the Goofers were playing Purdue and Gene Keady was the coach. A timeout was called and he decided to chew on one of the refs. He got going so hard that his comb over flopped, and I swear, it went down to his shoulder. Without missing a beat, he took his hand and flopped it back on top and just kept chewing away.

r/golf is fun about 10% of the time (IMO). But I can’t quit it.

Jamestown men's hoops is doing pretty well. Jamestown is as ready as Crookston to be in the league I guess.

I know here come the comments -- but the fact is they seem to running a real operation in Jamestown with expectations. Unlike year 65 of Stephanie Helgeson in Crookston

100%. But Crookston shouldn’t be the bar. They should be D3

I have believed for most of the last two years that the closest comparison for UJ is Upper Iowa. Are they a high-level D2 program? No. In fact, they were average at best in most NSIC-sponsored sports. But when you take off the NSIC-colored glasses and put them in a different conference, they prove to be a much more competitive D2 program as a whole.

I don't expect Jamestown to ever be a D2 powerhouse, but I fully believe they are a capable and competitive D2 program.

I will give Jamestown credit - the first stretch of the men's basketball season has gone better than expected. 7-6 isn't great - but they are 7-5 DII. 5-2 NSIC. The five DII losses are for a combined 19 points, so that's solid as well. The loss to Minot is the biggest blemish here, and wins against Duluth and Moorhead stand out.

I'm sure someone will get upset that I pointed this out - I'm not saying they're going to win a national championship here, just that they've impressed me thus far. Credit where credit due.

Thanks for the love, Merry Christmas, GO JIMMIES!

Roughly halfway through the MBB season (10 of 22 conference games played), Jimmies are currently in first place in the North and just one game back of the overall conference leaders.

This is a quality showing from the Jims. Men’s basketball was the sport that I believe most thought they could be competitive. Some thought volleyball, that wasn’t good. MBB seems to be carrying the lance.

And now for the unfortunate downside. All it took was the worst NSIC men’s basketball league in recent memory.

Tip of the cap to the Jimmies. This is a good showing. Bruggeman can coach.

I do agree the league overall is down. With transfer portal world, every year is going to be an unknown going forward.

Moorhead was decimated by the transfer portal.

CSP has been decimated by injuries.

Minot was killed by the portal too.

down, but some of it just unique circumstances.

except Crookston. Yep, always can count on Crookston. Seems to me Stephanie Helgeson will get a big raise and contract extension.
