Elon (3-2) beat Mt. Saint Mary's (0-5) by five.

Drexel (0-4) lost by 19 to UNC-Asheville (2-3) waaaaay up there in Alaska. Thousands and thousands of dollars to travel over 4,000 miles to go 0'fer for the first four of five games of an early-season tournament. And some of you were upset because our shoes didn't match on picture day.

I'm sure Bruiser Flint has gone through a couple pairs of shoes from all the stomping he's been doing. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

By the way, the mismatched shoes in the team photo still bother me. Otherwise, I can't complain about too much else.

How long a leash does Bruiser have in Drexel? Personally, I've always felt he's a pretty awful game coach. We've beaten them a few times with less talent because his gameplans were bad. If his recruiting falls off, well, what's left?

IMHO, they make a move after the season regardless. That said, I don't think the poor OOC showing will damn him. If the losing continues into a poor CAA record and they are out of the hunt by January, you may see an interim assistant at the helm.

He signed a multi-year contract extension after he was named CAA COY in 2012. Just a guess but it was probably a five year deal at $300,000+/yr. His original deal 14 years ago was 200k per. Drexel fired his predecessor after only 2 seasons because he failed to lead the Dragons to the NCAAT. Imagine that.

I wonder if Drexel has the money to fire him or would just rather ride it out.

I absolutely love Bruiser but he is just an awful game day coach. I've heard he's a great recruiter/off-season guy though

Northeastern up 6 on #15 Miami.

Charleston trailing W. Carolina by 7 with 12:00 to go.

NU came in as a 16.5 point underdog. Hope they pull it off.

Charleston pulled out the win by point.

Miami up 2 with a couple minutes left

NE with the game winner at the buzzer. Nice scalp for the CAA

Big win for the conference.

Good night for the CAA. Drexel can really help later against D2 Alaska Anchorage.

Not a good start for the dragons. They spotted AA 10 points to start the game.

Is that 3-1 for the CAA vs. the ACC?

Definitely 3 wins (NC State, Florida St and Miami).

The League is 29-19 at this point. All teams at .500 or better, except Drexel. Good start.

I guess the bright side is although it's bad PR if they lose, it wouldn't factor in to RPI.
