What happened to Eastern Washington? They were good last year.
Actually, Portland State won the season championship, so I am a bit surprised that they are not in the final game of the tourney. Weber is the biggest surprise.
Here are the final regular season standings.....

Wow, EWU really fell off this season.
Ray Giacollette left. I believe he is now coaching at Utah or something like that. He was the reason they were good. Never did anything at NDSU but doing well in division I now. Same with Greg McDermott never did anything at NDSU and now UNI might get an invite to the NCAA tournament. I hope Coach Miles develops as our last two coaches appear to have grown.
It's like getting up from a slot machine and having a blue haired grandma sit down and win a million bucks on her first pull.Originally Posted by kchats
Oakland made the dance last night. According to Sportscenter, they are in only their 7th season at the D1 level. Congrats to them, it gives us alot of hope. We played them this year. I just looked at the box score, looks like they beat us pretty good, but had a 21-0 run to start the second half. Good luck to them in the tourney, I am guessing they will be a 16 seed.

Ray is doing VERY well at Utah and his stock is damn high in this part of the country.......
If Ray Jack is smart, he will get out after this year if offered a job in a BCS conference.
