Last year's tournament was the best one ever and im certain this year will not disappoint either.

The women's tournament is expanding to 16 teams next season so im sure the men's will follow suit. (Congrats to the simon frazier women's squad forwinning the national championship).

So this will be the last CIS Final 8 (and coincidentally just the 3rd down from 10 teams a few years back

GO DINOS!!!
 
I haven't been following it much this year because I'm not too close anymore with anyone who plays. I caught a bit of the Western/Ottawa game when Iwas working out, not a great game. I didn't realize Calgary was so good this year and their game with UBC should be good. If I'm watching TV whenit's on I'll check it out.
 
Seriously CIS basketball?

How is he telling ducktales? I'm pretty sure CIS schools dont give full scholarships. So whats the the big deal if they offer for you to playthey really arent giving you much anyways.
 
Im rooting for the stangs and Calgary...I'm just happy my school won it all last year, thats all that matters

Carleton beat Alabama last season. and it took Illinois overtime to beat them.

Running with power conference teams is damn respectable considering the vastly smaller budget and effort put into developing local talent.

cis lol i got offered to play on a cis team, straight trash homie
so what are you doing now that's 'better' than cis ball? hoopin' at the Y? barely playin while working at 7-11?

Top CIS players that make a lot of rukus will at the very least get a look from overseas.

If your game was that superior to the rest of the CIS, then it would have been a fantastic oppurtunity.

Leads me to think your 'offer' was not everything you make it appear to be. Nor is your game.

as stated above CIS ball is no joke.

ubc clinches a berth in the chip.

bekkering shouldnt have tried to dunk that ball, there were 3 defenders around him.

dyck hit those crunch time free throws.
