Let's Pro-Con this NCAA vs NIT debate.

NCAA:
Pro: It'd be a tournament berth in a rebuilding year with a brand new head coach
Con: Probably a short stay

NIT:
Pro: Can probably make a deep enough run to get Suffren her Medical hardship
Con: Less prestigious.

Watched Calvin Daugherty arrive and several of the earlier finishers were there. He was running a Seavey Kennel young, 2 year old, team to get them experience, so Mitch Seavey was there to great him. Heard someone say Jessie Holmes was there too, but not 100% sure. Could not tell who the others were.

Duke had a vendetta to settle with Loserville in the ACC title game after Coach Scheyer did not win Coach of the Year in the ACC. Lost to Loserville Coach BuyaTeam oh meant Pat Kelsey.

Another tremendous #GoACC moment:

Tigers found themselves locked out of their locker room at halftime.

Clemson players wound up sitting on the cement floor outside of the locker room while coach Brad Brownell addressed his team.

Eventually the door was unlocked by building security and the Tigers were able to get in.

The ACC added two minutes to halftime as a result.

Whether it was coincidence or not, Clemson did not play well early in the second half, eventually falling behind by 15 after going more than six minutes without a field goal. The Tigers finally got some momentum and cut the lead to two with a furious rally and had a chance to tie before losing 76-73.

Brownell said it's something that has never happened to his Clemson team before.

"No, not at this level," Brownell said. "It's disappointing, obviously."

Sunday evening, March 16 approaching 7 PM east coast. The top 18 are in Nome, st rookie to finish, pulling in with 9 dogs at 2:20 AM Alaska time/6:20 AM East coast. A couple more are out of White Mountain and pushing towards Safety Roadhouse. We have:

1. Jessie Holmes into Nome

Calvin Daugherty in listed as 2 miles to the finish, running 12 dogs and Connor McMahon will round out the top 20 as he is running 13 dogs, 12 miles to Nome.

Ebbe Pederson just pulled out of White Mountain at ~6:50 PM east coast. Should arrive this evening Alaska time, but will be early AM east coast.

Dane Baker is doing his 8 hour in White Mountain, 1,057 miles in/71 to Nome and Jenny Roddewig holds the red lantern, running 10 dogs, 1,029 mile in/99 to Nome. They will arrive tomorrow if all goes well.

One piece schedule wise I will be curious if scheduling changes a bit is the December schedule.

Hokies played 8 in November, 9 in January and 7 in February but only 4 in December.

Men did 7, 6, 8, 7 Nov-Feb. The 4 in a month really seems a hard way to keep rhythm, etc. I get exams are happening but still seems low.

Yep would love for to target three players 6'4+ with the portal for the remaining scholarships.

Made games against Iowa, UNC, ND, NC ST, Duke and maybe even UVA really tough watches.

Sounds like we might be above the blue chip ratio? Let's hope Coach Duffy can keep the core together. They seem to be spread out well to work in younger players and have them ready for significant minutes once the trio of Juniors graduate. Tilly and Rose leave behind a lot of minutes.

If there are no departures, the backcourt looks very solid...Sears is the real deal.

Trent is a nice low post player and Jenkins has height and excellent range, but I'd think Duffy would also look in the portal for another player with experience and physicality at the 4/5.

Welp. Newcastle played inspired and deserved the win. Been a really tough month as a Liverpool fan :( and the last 5 days have been absolutely brutal. Pretty typical for them to rush out to a great start and then falter down the stretch. At this point I just hope they're able to hang on in the PL and win something. Still exceeded expectations this year but I don't see how we can keep all of Salah, Virgil, and Trent this summer. Slot's going to have to show what he's really made of next season with a different looking roster.

Sounds like Will Wade has told NC State he isn't interested. Makes me think he must have something bigger lined up.

Lemley gives up late 2 run homer but Hokies sweep 12-5. Good 4-0 week.

Must of missed a a bunch. Hokies get 4 runs

Going to bottom 7th still 12-3.

She definitely did not play that much (5 games in season and the ACCT game) so if her injuries extended from prior injury they will be able to get a medical. If it's a new injury same would apply.

One concern is it looks like she may have played in the ACCT per ESPN. Don't know how post season applies either way to redshirt. Seems real dumb to burn a year if it counts since her last game was 12/21. ESPN shows ACCT as last game but if you click on stats it's not listed in game log.
