Some good teams will be left out this year and getting to the final 8 will be tougher than usual.








Bold prediction that teams on that list that won't make it are: Duke, Penn St, Stanford, Princeton, Colorado


Bold prediction indeed. I knew Princeton and Duke were strong programs but I didn't realize how strong.

Duke has made the NCAA Tournament 19 times in the past 22 years.

Princeton has made the NCAA Tournament 23 times in the past 26 years.

I think they will both make it this year.


Just like one of the poster's said, name gets them in...


And good names they are. That said, I am guessing that you are just another troll who has nothing positive to add to the discussion. As usual, just a one line jab in an attempt to diminish a player, town, team, parent, coach, university, program, recognition list, AA team etc...

I am also guessing that your daughter was not offered a spot at either school and that you believe that your daughter, her program / school deserves more recognition both athletically and academically than they get. I will also wager that you have come up with excuses as to why your daughter was not offered a spot at particular schools. In any event, both Duke and Princeton are great programs and excellent schools.

Princeton and Duke consistently play extremely difficult schedules and they are rewarded for their effort based on their results. Along with Teams like Virginia, Penn, Maryland, Penn State, North Carolina, Northwestern, Syracuse, Florida, Loyola, and Notre Dame, Boston College; Duke and Princeton challenge themselves year in and year out. They are two of the top programs in the country.
