Nice pub from ESPN

This screen shot is from the Tuesday night game on ESPN,
calling BU's win one of the key midmajor wins so far.

By the way...don't look now but DePaul's RPI is climbing.
They are at RPI 149 (up from 261 in just one week!), and they have won 4 of their last 6, losing only to two teams with GOOD RPI's (Purdue, Kentucky) and beating Kansas.

I was listening to the score 670am after the depaul game last nite and they had mentioned how depaul lost to BU early in the year, as if the Braves were a team that they should have beaten easily. i got a little upset at the lack of respect, I mean BU is a darn good team at home anyways.

but i do hope Depaul keeps winning...

This and tons of other articles have shown that just about
everyone IS convinced of the power and success of the mid
majors, especially of the Missouri Valley.

Everyone except the three guys who are notable by their
absence in saying even ONE things good about mid majors or the Valley.

Has anyone noticed that Billy Packer, Jim Nance, and Digger
Phelps have been strangely quiet on this very issue that they
themselves have made such a widely discussed topic.
Do a google search and you cannot find any of these three guys
even willing to pen one mention of this topic they so thoroughly
discredited themselves on last season.
Even though their jobs are to report on college basketball, none
of these three guys have said anything publicly about the
strength of the mid majors or on the topic of the MVC and how
well they are doing.
They are somewhat of an embarrassment to their profession,
but come on, at least be fair and give em their due, guys!
