That would be a great idea.  Do you think people would wear nametags with their real name or posting i.d.?

They'd have to wear both. Anyone going to this year's Final Four?

Has D3 Hoops.com ever thought of hosting a Final Four reception (cash bar). It would be nice to meet some of the people who year in and year out post on the forums here that might be at the games.

Sumfun....in response to your post:

Go to www.eofficials.com and register as a free user. Then, go to the NCAA affiliates area on that site and go under "men's basketball" and "women's basketball". You will note there are significant differences in the NCAA interpretations of the rules from the material there. The eofficials website is the website all officials and coaches use to receive updates as to in-season issues. It may help those regulars on this board identify some of the rationals for calls being made.

If you read further, it appears Mr. Adams, interpreter of the men's side, if trying to bring more "absolutes" (meaning absolutely a foul) into the men's game to make it more standard......but it appears his guidance is leaning towards cleaning up the flow of the game and calling some of the "flow interupters" like hand checks to clean up that flow.

The interpretations of the post play and hand checking areas are significantly different and that is the reason for the differences in what you are seeing when comparing a men's game to a women's game.

I hope this helps clarify.

How can you have Messiah 6th? They played in the National Championship, shot lights out in the semi-finals and played a very good Tufts team in the Elite Eight. While Hope may well be 2 (I haven't seen them), Messiah is the 2nd best team I have seen all year.

Can anyone share suggestions for some nice places to eat around Hope College? I'm sure many folks will be going to the Final FDOur and some of the local posters from that area might be good resources! Thanks, Dan
