As shared in other thread, record of vanquished 2023 foes sits at 9-21.

In Hens' favor, only 5 current Top-10 teams have a win over a now-ranked opponent.

It would be 14-16 if we had just let those teams win when they played us.

For the record this now stands at 9-21 (three opponents won Saturday).

The record would be better if we hadn't beaten these teams.

I am a bit surprised that SDSU got all of the first place votes. Carty told me he was going to alphabetize his votes this week.

You mean Albany beat nova, correct? The point is still the same of course.

I am not sure. It is so hard to tell because the competition has been so bad. But I don’t know when they will play a good team or at least a half way decent team until Elon or Villanova. And neither of them are going to do much if and when they get to the playoffs either. Nothing less than 9-2 with...

Does anyone see a Delaware team that's getting better? I've not yet seen that from week to week. I am not sure. It is so hard to tell because the competition has been so bad. But I don’t know when they will play a good team or at least a half way decent team until Elon or Villanova. And neither of ...

Game was on tv last night. It got delayed by about 40 minutes with the Phillies postgame, but it was there. I have it recorded so I know of what I speak.

Loved it. Drama from the first pitch all the way through to the end. Great postseason team. Onto the NLCS against a sneaky good Diamondback team. Phils in Citizen's Bank continue to have the best postseason record in baseball history. Love it. Oh, and J-Roll on the studio show for TBS is great - act...

Phillies got 9 hits and 7 walks and could only muster 4 runs. And the Braves get 4 hits and only 1 walk and win 5-4. Pissing the game away is right. So many guys left on base. They have to send Bohm in the first. Turner makes yet another error to let in a run. Wheeler makes one bad pitch to the wor...

Just found out.........I am going Wednesday night!!!! And not a horrible seat: 300 Level behind 1st base. Never been to a playoff game in major sport, very excited. GO PHILS!!!!!! Congrats - it should be great. Maybe my best live sporting event was being in the Vet for Game 6 of the NLCS in '93 whe...

That five million clam application fee will stop some aspirants in their tracks. Better not stop us. We knew this was coming, and really we should've been moving up a long time ago. If we use this as an excuse when it was our foot dragging that put us in that spot then I'll be wondering if Ziady is...

Both NDSU and SDSU are mentioned here as possible FBS targets. Interesting and creative, though maybe unworkable, scenario. In any case, it seems NDSU, like UD, is clearly interested in discussing FBS membership opportunities. Multiple sources have told me {NDSU's] athletic department has made it k...

Yup, don't fool around in a 3 game series, just end it tonight. Team looked great last night, Wheeler is the ace he is (and he's that kind of a stud that gets even better in the playoffs), and the hitting was timely enough with the whole lineup contributing. Hopefully Nola continues to trend well an...

Former UD AD Eric Zaidy said the exact same thing about moving up to the Sun Belt or CUSA that it “wasn’t moving up”. Yet it’s proven if you stay stationary you move down. There was a time, maybe in that 2000-2010 window when the CAA was dominant nationally and it was filled with all the best progr...

There CH. You answered your own question. It wasn’t even worth asking or even answering because it is a given. But glad you did anyway with the obvious answer. I guess I did but you know William & Mary and Nova are not really like Marist and LIU, so will our traditional rivals be coming with us...

I used to like playing for a natty. Still do. But, give me a shot, even a long one, at being one of the G5 teams in the real national championship? Oh yeah! IN MY OPINION - It's not a long shot. It's no shot whatsoever. It will never, ever, ever, ever, ever happen. There are forces at work to make ...
