One voter accounted for the vast majority of Emerson's points in the Week 3 poll. Apparently he looked a little more closely at Emerson and changed his mind.

Support for Emerson is actually very soft. If only a couple of people are voting for you then you will see fluctuations at the bottom end of the poll.

Wow...D3hoops Top 25 Poll is quickly losing credibility. Of course, the voters might have been influenced by your attempts to discredit Emerson's opponents in earlier posts.

I guess Emerson stands ZERO chance of making the top 25 now. Even if the run the table from here out, it will be against GNAC teams and will get no respect from royal voters.

New England is the toughest D3 region in the country. MIT would be one of the top two teams in just about any other conference in America outside the NESCAC and a few others.

Pat, I have been reading your website for a long time and appreciate the time you take to promote D3 athletics, but your voters got this one wrong.

I think you guys misinterpreted the intent of my question. I honestly wanted to know if Pat had seen them play.

It is anything but a no-brainer. Most of those teams you spotlight wins against are decent but none are Top 25 and probably none are even Top 50.

I would think that going 7-0 with good (if not great) out of conference wins would be enough to break in to the Top 25...maybe I'm wrong. How many 7-0 teams are there right now???...I honestly don't know but I doubt there are many.

There is now question that the ARE at Top 25 team. Will they get VOTED into the Top25...who knows.

But this isn't standings, it's a ranking. And many teams could have gone 7-0 against that schedule.

Pat, You are making it sound like they were playing a bunch of tomato cans every night. They played some good teams. Bottom line - I'd take them over a #20-25 team. If the freshman shooter is playing, I'd take them against anyone outside the top 10. Have you seen them play?

Emerson College at 7-0 after a big win against MIT last night. They should be in the top 25.

With an impressive 10 point win over MIT last night, I think it's time Emerson College cracks the nation's top 25. They are 7-0 with statement wins against William Patterson, Vassar, Babson, Wheaton and MIT.

This is a "no brainer".
