It seems that my tables don’t show up in Google Reader, so it’s possible that they don’t work in other readers as well. I’ll try to include a disclaimer when I include tables in a post, but it’s probably a good idea to click on through to the actual post when it’s something like a […]

Making the GSC Tournament: Possible Scenarios
The Bisons cut down the nets after last night’s game, since it was the first time in the 50-year history of the program that the Harding men finished tied for a conference (or really the division) championship. They still have some work to do, though, if they want to win a GSC Championship and make […]
Senior Night win helps HU clinch a share of GSC West title
SAU fought hard, as they typically do, but at the end of the night, they have still only beaten Henderson State (twice) in conference play. Harding emerged with stronger play over the last few minutes of a very close game and won 73-70, clinching at least a tie for first place in the GSC West. […]
Testing 1…2…3…
Posts have been sparse around here lately, aside from the occasional game review, but I have been working on a number of infrastructure improvements for displaying stats. For the next week or so, I’ll be testing Google Docs as a solution, since that will theoretically allow me to embed published spreadsheets into a post, page, […]
Overtime loss, televised win make for an exciting weekend
Arkansas Tech 87, Harding 82 (OT) [TABLE=94] It doesn’t get much more simple than this: had Harding taken care of the basketball in the last few minutes of regulation and in overtime, they would be 10-2 and have clinched at least a tie for the division lead. Despite a solid all-around shooting performance (even with […]
National TV shows Bisons (and Harding) at their best
I’ll have stats for you on Monday, but I wanted to go ahead and share a few thoughts about the TV coverage of this afternoon’s 72-59 home win over Henderson State. CSTV was incredibly kind to Harding and the fans on-air, making repeated comments about the quality of Harding’s student body, the spirited crowd, and […]
Weekly Notes: February 21, 2008
I didn’t do any notes last week, so here’s what’s going on: Let’s start with a quick comment or two on today’s big NYT story about John McCain’s relationship with a lobbyist: I don’t much care about the adultery angle, nor do I think this was a sinister plot by the Times to destroy the […]
Bisons beat Tigers, take sole possession of first
Good, disciplined teams have a tendency to pick up fewer fouls than their opponents for a variety of reasons. Whether it’s superior athleticism or speed, as in the ability to alter an offensive approach without making contact with the opponent, or simply smart play around the basket, good teams do this. Harding was a good […]
Obviously not looking ahead to OBU, Harding throttles Delta State
What? A game review the day after the game? Is this 2005 or something? Believe me, I’m as surprised as you are. Once you get your head around the idea that I’m actually doing a somewhat timely review, we have some game action to break down. [TABLE=92] The Bisons basically did what they’ve been doing […]
It's the Tournament, a month early
I mentioned that I might give this a whirl about a month ago, so instead of ranking the D-I basketball teams, I’m doing my own little exercise in “bracketology.” For reference, here’s Joe Lunardi’s latest, the current national rankings and standings, and Ken Pomeroy’s latest rankings. [TABLE=91] Ordering the Top Seeds Some of the early […]
