Danny Sheridan line:
Dayton - 5.5
Dayton - 5.5
In today's WSJ, Chase Fisher says that Dayton (and I'm quoting) "is always a powerhouse."
Is this what we've come to, really? A team from the A-10 is always a powerhouse, and a team from the ACC is really excited to play them and see what we can do??? :rulz:

I want him to say "Dayton is a really good, well coached team, and we will have to play well if we want win."
All of that is true. However, they are most definitely not a powerhouse, over whom a win would prove anything.
You probably would have said the same thing before the VCU game last year, and VCU went on to the Final Four (along with another mid-major, Butler, while another one of those lowly A-10 mid-majors that we played, Richmond, made the Sweet 16).
No single win in November "proves anything," as anyone with the slightest knowledge about college basketball well knows. But it is silly to imply that a road win over a solid mid-major is meaningless, given the year this program just endured.
And BTW, Chase Fischer is a few months out of high school, so why don't you take your criticism of some innocent comment he made to a reporter and stick it where the sun never shines.
Stop feeding the 20 post troll, y'all... Chase's comments are pretty par for the course.
On the other hand, this game is going to tell us a lot about our coach's abilities. I predict a lot of runs, dry-spells, etc. We need big performances all around, but nowhere more than from our HC...
Happy Thanksgiving and go Deacs!
