Utica University 2023-24: The Rebuild????

Well UU beat Stonehill by a larger margin than #16 ASU. Does that mean UU could be ranked at least #15 in D1 were they to make the jump right now?!?!

*heavy sarcasm*

Your idiocy level knows no bounds.

You wrote: "Kinda repeating myself (and I tend to do that), but some of these better UCHC wins won't hurt UU's PWR ranking at all..."

Both Prez and I pointed out the fallacy of that comment.

Who needs the English lessons?

The better UCHC teams might do fairly well OOC, and thus help UU's PWR, should UU beat them in conference play.

That's what I implied in the first place, you angry (and perhaps drunken) dope. It really wasn't so difficult to figure out.

XO.

Calling someone angry and drunk? You really need to stop projecting, Steve. Not everybody is the same as you.

I was surprised they played 5 lines. It was Roberts game until everyone realized that Stonehill was bad. I think everyone in the arena expected a little more from a D1 team.

I kind of implied that in an earlier post. Stonehill is not a D1 team. Heck, last year midway, they removed all game results against Stonehill from the D1 PWR when the powers that be realized Stonehill was not a D1 team (and I suspect they will do that again this year). They can call themselves whatever they want, but until they actually act like a D1 team, they need to stop pretending.

Fishman many times pounds on the idea that Utica going D1 will accomplish nothing if they are just a middling D1 team in a middling D1 conference. Well, Stonehill takes that to another (low) level. They are a D3 team calling themselves a D1 team without recruiting D1 players, without playing a complete D1 schedule, without even being in any kind of D1 conference or acting like a proper D1 independent like ASU, Lindenwood, Augustana, and LIU do.

Basically, they are a joke.

I hate to agree with you, but I do... And Stonehill's games don't count in the D-1 PW this year, either. What's the point?

It's a small-time D-3 backwater (a double-whammy) which plays in a tiny venue with no fan support and a lousy track-record.

Utica isn't in the same boat as far the above, but I still can't figure out why they'd go D-1. Some guys on here- OK, only one guy- is convinced that it will, but I haven't heard any explanation that makes sense.

(Dog whistle there.);):)

Here I was thinking you had sources. I can promise that you are wrong.

Oh, I have plenty of sources. And people know who I am and thus know the type of sources I can acquire over the past 30 years.

Nobody knows who you are or the possible sources you could acquire.

I've been quite aggressive this year checking my sources, because admittedly this is a subject I haven't bothered getting personally involved in. Until now, because I was getting tired of this constant never ending story that one day, you watch, Utica is going D1. There is not a single source of mine, not ONE, who believes Utica is going D1, and they all cite solid reasons why.

I am now 95% convinced Utica is not going D1. (Always got to leave open a possibility there, LOL.)

That's fine you don't need to believe me but I'm not the only one hearing it. Pioneer has heard much of the same probably from similar sources that are airtight to the endeavor. Not to discredit your sources but if they truly had any skin here they would know what is happening behind the scenes.

Oh, there definitely was something to it. A lot in fact. At one time.

But now, I believe it's dead in the water. And some of my sources do know what's going on behind the scenes.
