       Once again this conference gets killed and doesn't even put up a
       fight. It's just unfortunate because I believe the AE should at
       least be a CAA level conference just looking at who is in it. Oh
       well. I think I've changed my tune on us getting out of here. If
       we're going to go 14-19 or whatever we were this year, better to
       do it in a stronger league lol. If you're going to be in the
       weak league, you better win it every year haha.

       I have been saying the same thing for years. This conference is
       a low mid major and consistently ends up at the bottom of the
       div1 year after year. The CAA is a better, stronger conference
       to be in for all sports. Some people on this board disagree with
       me and say it is only a lateral. It's not a lateral and it is a
       huge move up..
       I believe the only way SB, or another team for that matter gets
       better and stronger is to compete with better teams each and
       every game. Staying in a conference where the RPI constantly
       ranks at the bottom of all div1 schools will not find you better
       athletes to come and play for your school. This is a fact. SB
       needs to run away from the AE and make that move into the CAA
       for all sports.. It only makes sense. Yes, SB would have to
       travel further south to play games, but in the long run you will
       get better kids who want a good education and better athletes..

       This is incredible. I can’t see Virginia closing a 16-point gap
       with their offense. They have looked terrible and UMBC
       brilliant.

       45-29 right now!!
       This would not only be the biggest win in AE history, but the
       biggest win in NCAA tournament history. A 16 seed has NEVER
       beaten a #1 ever.

       Odom took a program from total despair to the biggest win in
       tournament history in just a few years. He won’t go unnoticed
       this offseason, especially after that annihilation.

       Guys... GUYS!! It has happened
  HTML http://scores.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/boxscore?gameId=401025813
       This could be the turning point for this conference. It
       definitely will be for UMBC. It would have been greater had it
       been us, but you can't help but be happy about this. The
       Retrievers did it!!

       Amazing beat down! Congrats to UMBC! And let’s not forget who
       handed them their last loss 😃

       the year
