Belmont?

Byrd runs a disciplined offensive system that requires players with high basketball IQ and the ability to knock down perimeter shots. Indiana tends to have a big supply of those types of players. Traditionally Belmont had 6'7" or 6'8" skinny post players that could all shoot the ball but the last several years he's put more emphasis on having a couple of true post players on the roster. In my opinion that's why they're more competitive in the NCAA tourney now vs. previous years - they've got the size to defend the post better and actually have players with back to the basket post moves.
Your speculative predictions get proven wrong almost daily. WTF are you complaining about...
They have very low admissions standards and only Hoosiers and Mississippians can get in
He didn't play all four years because of injury, but Belmont had an Indiana kid from Plymouth named Mack Mercer. He was a 6'9" post player in high school and didn't tear it up but seeing him play you could tell he knew how to play correctly.
Awwww . . . you got rejected by Belmont.
Actually, Belmont is a good academic school with a very pretty, if small, campus. Their music and music engineering programs feed an awful lot of musicians and engineers to the considerable number of music and recording businesses in the Nashville area. I had a buddy of mine who played QB at South Carolina, and his son was a pitcher on Belmont's baseball team . . . which is also a good program.
I wouldn't mind my grandkids going to Belmont . . . .
Would certainly be beneficial for both of us--quality game for both our skeds. Rather play them than Chicago State again.
Yep - I was disappointed they couldn't get it done. Not sure what they were thinking having anyone but Windler handling the ball in the final seconds. Byrd's a great coach but that one kind of surprised me.
