A University of Dayton basketball blog.
Chris DiSano, a URI color commentator and founder of College Chalktalk, reports that Dayton will renew its series with Ole Miss next season: After one year off, hearing Dayton and Ole Miss will begin a new home-and-home this year, starting down in Mississippi. Dayton swept the Rebs during their previous meetings in 2010 and 2011. […]
SB Nation’s Seton Hall Blog, South Orange Juice, recently interviewed the Hall’s AD Pat Lyons. In the piece, Lyons confirms that the league will be expanding to 12 teams in the future: This new league is a home run. We (Big East AD’s) are really excited about adding Xavier, Butler and Creighton. Any time you’re […]
The Cincinnati Reds game went into extra innings tonight, with the home team pulling out a 5-4 victory over the Chicago Cubs in thirteen innings.

Another day, another Chicago recruit. This time it’s Kyle Davis, a kid with Barack Obama’s build but hopefully not his jump shot. “The 6’2, 165-pound Davis also reportedly held offers from in-state schools Northwestern, Illinois State, Illinois-Chicago, and Chicago State, in addition to programs in the Big East and SEC. He is listed as a […]
It’s that time of the year, the period of the season when we dip our toes into the murky recruiting waters and pretend to like it.

Looking back, it shouldn’t have been a surprise. For several years I’d received emails regarding Matt Kavanaugh’s unsettling behavior, particularly around women at UD. These stories would almost always coincide with an account of Kav’s profound arrogance and how he seemed to go out of his way to make sure his presence, welcomed or not, […]
La Salle’s foray into the Sweet 16 marks the eighth A10 team to reach the second week of the NCAA Tournament over the past ten years.
