Joe Lunardi has his pre-season NCAA Basketball Brackets on the ESPN site. Basically, he tried to pick who is going to make the NCAA Tourney at the end of the year. It's a crapshoot at best and he has Dayton pegged at #32 which is a fine place to start even though we probably should be higher. That in itself isn't much reason to mention the brackets, but his comments that go along with the predictions amused me. It pretty much summed up how Flyers fans felt about their former coach Oliver Purnell and how glad we were to welcome new coach, Brian Gregory...
"Were the Flyers over-seeded last year? Tulsa certainly made it look that way. It says here that UD will be just fine without Oliver Purnell, who always seemed better at getting a new contract than winning in March. Brian Gregory is a fine choice."
