Introductions

Hello there, and welcome to Three Point Range, a blog about college basketball. I’m a huge fan of the sport and wanted to share my thoughts with the world. I know it’s late in the season, but I finally have the time to begin and continually update a blog. This blog will heavily feature my own thoughts, analysis, and bias, and it is highly possible I will be wrong a majority of the time. As for myself, I am a shooter by nature, and that’s about all I do well on the court, which is why I’m writing about college basketball instead of playing. This reflects in teams that I favor, as the better they shoot, the more I like them. I am a fan of the Michigan Wolverines, and you may see that reflected in my analysis. For the rest of this season, I plan on giving my thoughts on the field of 68 and then giving my predictions for the tournament. I’ll give round-by-round recaps of all the tournament games and then reactions to any offseason news. During the next season and beyond, I will look to give daily insights on games I watched and whatever else comes up that I feel like sharing. I hope you continue to read, and share your thoughts on NCAA Basketball. If you would like extra insights follow on Twitter @ThreePointRange.

Southern Conference Tournament Preview

Season In Review The SoCon rose to the forefront of national attention thanks to two teams: Wofford and Furman. Before I get into them, I want to note that outside of those two, UNC Greensboro, and ETSU, the conference was very bad. No other team was even .500 in conference play, and the top really covered up a disappointing bottom. However, the top was very good, and Furman made news when they took down Loyola-Chicago and Villanova, and they started off 12-0 on the season. While Furman made waves early, it was Wofford who did it late, going 18-0 in the conference and losing just 4 games all season. They should be in the tournament pretty comfortably at this point, and we could see multiple teams dancing if someone other than the Terriers wins the tournament, which is very possible given the strength of the rest of the top 4. Once we get into the semifinals, there should be nothing but great games, and I am very excited to see what happens. Bracket Contenders Wofford  (26-4,...

The good news for Mark Pope is he has a lot of returning production to help the transition to the new conference. While two of their top four scorers depart, the Cougars do bring back seven of their top nine scorers. Leading the returners is big man Fousseyni Traore , who led the team in scoring last season. He put up 12.9 points, 7.8 rebounds, 1.5 steals, and 0.7 blocks, and his rebounding and block numbers were actually down from hi...
