  • Wake Forest blew it

    From JGibson@21:1/5 to All on Tue Mar 29 07:34:27 2022
    Otherwise, the Carolinas had a basketball team in every post-season tournament final:

    UNC-Wilmington won the CBI
    Coastal Carolina is hosting the championship of the "Basketball Classic" (formerly the CIT)
    UNC/Duke winner plays in the NCAA tournament final

    But the here is the NIT semifinals with no team from the Carolinas: St. Bonaventure, Xavier, Washington State, Texas A&M

    They did win the Gator Bowl 38-10.

    No, you blew it. If you said that St. Bonaventure was actually in NC, nobody would have argued.

    Nah that’s definitely a yankee school. Probably a catholic school in New York or Pennsylvania.

    St. Bonaventure

    Located in extreme SW New York State, pretty much in the middle of
    nowhere. Excellent in BB in the fifties and late sixties.

    Notable player: Robert Jerry (Bob) Lanier Jr. (born September 10, 1948)
    is an American former professional basketball player who played for the
    Detroit Pistons and Milwaukee Bucks of the National Basketball
    Association (NBA). Lanier was inducted into the Naismith Memorial
    Basketball Hall of Fame in 1992.

    In his 14 NBA seasons, Lanier averaged 20.1 ppg, 10.1 rpg, 3.1 apg, 1.5
    bpg, and 1.1 spg while shooting a stellar 51.4% from the field. He
    played in eight NBA All-Star Games, and was named Most Valuable Player
    of the 1974 game. He has had his #16 jersey retired by both the Pistons
    and the Bucks and his #31 jersey retired by St. Bonaventure University.
    Lanier is an NBA ambassador.

    Well, St. Bonaventure lost in the semis and missed the championship anyway. Coastal Carolina loses to Fresno State in the championship game of the Basketball Classic.
