Well, according to this we still have a good shot if we beat DePaul twice in five days. We are Team Teflon.

But can they do that, especially when one is a road game at DePaul? Hopefully the long time Chris spent in the locker room with them after the Marquette loss was to set things straight and light a fire under them.

This is the only year as an avid fan of X bball, that I'm glad we've had the likes of Fordham and Depaul in our league. They may be rpi anchors, but this year, Depaul will be Xavier's salvation. Vegas has put even odds out as which event gets greater attendance: The X-Depaul game, vs the one remaining Mili Vanilli twin's concert at Bogarts.

Homer, don't tell me you were one of the lucky ones to see Prince at Bogart's back in the early "80's. I saw some great bands at Bogart's in my younger college days. Violent Femmes, The Replacements, Stanley Clarke, Stray Cats, Peter Frampton, Los Lobos, The Storm, BAD II, The BoDeans, Chris Isaak, Killing Joke, The Waterboys just to name a few. Well, let's bring home a winner. Go X!!!

No,

Wasn't at X then. I'm not even sure I've ever seen a concert at Bogarts.

So basically we could go 3 and 7 in our last ten games with all the victories over DePaul and that gets us in?That's a weak resume

The good news is we rolled past Depaul. The bad news is Seton Hall and Marquette both got big wins. Looks like we end in the bottom third. Need to win this week, maybe two games to be comfortable.

Replacements and Frampton played at Bogarts? I did see Phish play there in early 90's. AH and Muskieman saw Yanni and John Tesh there I believe. Probably too many Zimas for them to remember

Yes you have it right. Injuries really clobbered us down the end but weak or not i will gladly take an entry into the tournament. From there it is a crap shoot anyway.
