Please stop with this OWED bull**** like I’m demanding it. Said it would be nice for people to share what they’ve listened to or said. No one demanded or said they were owed anything.

This is grade A internet melts. Love it.

I said nobody not just you. This is no different than any other media source in sharing/credit policy on jthis board.
Additionally, the Monarchists have, for many episodes, shared a general transcript for those to access/ reference. You mentioned that your family situation does not allow you the time and you won't listen to the podcast, which is absolutely fine. However, shaming the production crew for attempting to grow a brand which is extremely accessible in unfounded.

So I am sorry, I do not follow the minutia of the standings as well as some. Given that Louisiana won last night, top 4 is out. What is the best we can finish? If we stay at 6 regardless, if we win or lose on Friday, is it better to rest players in prep for the tournament?

Need a Troy loss and we win. Give us that damn 5 seed to play JMU if we win a game. I need that.

The worst result would be having to play So. Alabama, a very hot team. That is very possible if we lose.

Essentially between the 5-7 seed. The #5 & 6 seeds will play the winners of the 11-14 seeds, which is pretty locked as Tx St/Coastal/AK State/GA State. #7 will play #10, which is likely looking like UL Monroe or GA Southern.

And the worst South Alabama can finish is the 9 seed. So it's impossible for us to play each other in our first game in the tournament.

Troy plays Ccu Friday. Look for 6 seed.

If I am correct, we play the winner on Texas State/Georgia State next Thursday at 6:00.

I thought we would be the 6 seed facing that winner but during the Louisiana game, they just had us as the 5 seed playing the winner of Coastal and Ark State.

We should be 6 because we lost to Troy.

That sounds right.

FWIW: We went 7-1 against teams on our side of the bracket.

Would take awesome basketball to get to finals, much less win the tourney. Would love to see it happen though.

Never have been a huge Jones fan. However, it is really nice to see and hear his comments about the players on this team. His last twp pressers post game on Monarch Media really show me the how proud he is of these players and the fun he is having them come together for some success.

This is not a season we likely hang a banner in the rafters, but it has been nice to see a team actually grow and develop from season's start to now.

Well said . We as fans need to remember these moments are not just the here and now . We all want success and at times when it doesn’t happen let’s lean in on the progression from the first practice to the last whistle. There is a ton of ups and downs in the middle . The board reflects as much of the roller coaster . In the end the staff and team want it more than we do. The difference is how we manage our expectations as fans.
