Wes Miller with that SoCon regular season title. Now he needs to prove he can get it done in March.

ETSU really, really stumbled down the stretch losing 4 of 5. It is going to come down to them and UNCG, I think. I think both teams could give a 3/4/5 seed a potential upset in the tournament.

For sure. I was surprised when I opened this thread and saw UNCG was the #1 seed.

ETSU, UNC Greensboro and Wofford have shown they can hang with top teams, those teams could make it interesting

I'd like to see Wofford win this again, but I'd also be happy for the Paladins if they somehow won it

Chattanooga upsets Samford and The Citadel wins First Round games. Quarterfinal action kicks off today. If the favorites win out, it'll be a fantastic semifinal action. UNCG, ETSU and Furman are all top 100 KenPom teams. And we all know Wofford is capable having taken down UNC earlier this season.

UNCG vs. Wofford and ETSU vs. Furman. Both games are today. Wofford got a huge win over UNC earlier this year. Don't overlook them, but I think ETSU ends up winning it all here.

UNCG's patience w/ Wes Miller is starting to pay off. UNCG was pretty bad during his first five years there, started the turnaround last year and will be headed to the NCAAT in year #7.

Could be Wake's next coach, if he decides to return to UNCG for one more year.
