It isn't the big games Dayton struggles with. It's not screwing up the "not so big games"

Exactly. Dayton would have gotten into the dance had it taken care of day-to-day business in more than one of those seasons. Consistency (and road games) have been a thorn in our side since the departure of Oliver Purnell.

Do you get to watch College basketball or are you too busy thinking up your next Dayton thread post?

Every Arena in the country will boo a flagrant foul if its called that soon after the foul.
A refs runs up, crosses his arma and the home team shouts---OH NOOO.

Perhaps you could benefit by watching a little college bassketball......

Butler coach Brad Stevens wouldn't rule out Rotnei Clarke playing Wednesday. Also said a mixup led to Marshall shooting Rotnei's FTs Sat.

Exactly. In UD's case, the not so big games are usually the big games. They just have figured that out yet.

I rest my case.
