Re: Both basketball teams ranking in top 100
Chains, I like the sounds of it. As the newest member of the ex-Brookingsite's living in Rapid City - I'll do what I can to make it happen at the Rushmore Civic Center. Good airport for the BSC schools that are taking part.
We're always looking for people to fill our hotels during December and January. I'll save my rooms for the Jacks fans - Lakes can stay with the others at the Motel 6 or Super 8.

Hard for me to view Coach Boots in an objective, non-biased way.

But he didn't and instead of looking at past ranking systems, he of course just went off of name-recognition(Montana, namely) and spouted off about how much more competitive and more name-recognition there would be as a member of the Big Sky.

There is a perception, perhaps appropriate, amongst many that the BSC is better. Why? There has been more name familiarity. The Summit is a new name for a conference that has seen a lot of shifting amongst members. In addition some the the Summit members have non-traditional names with unusual abbreviations. You don't see that in the BSC.
My point, I think there needs to be more information based on power rankings, conference comparison, etc.. available to the casual fan. It will help generate more excitement about the Summit league and I think SDSU benefits from that.

Based on those simple averages, The Summit League ranks as the 14th best conference for men and 17th for women compared to the Big Sky's 22nd for men and 21th for women. The dropping of Centenary and Southern Utah and addition of USD improves the Conference rankings significantly. The Great West is 33 rd in each.

The men lead The Summit league with a 88 ranking today. The Summit is ranked as the number 16 conference.

The women are ranked 81 today with the conference ranked number 20. These don't include last night's victory so the women will move up further once those are added in. (Last nights win jumped them up to number 55)
Nice to see this type of ranking for both teams.
