We continue looking at some of the biggest surprises in each Division I conference through the season’s first two months. Plus, big news at Evansville, and Loyola (Md.) and Mount St. Mary’s win the only two games on the D-I docket Friday.
But Wait - There's More!
Talking Hoops With Ted Sarandis – December 27, 2019
We look back at the Diamond Head Classic championship, with the winner clearly trending upward, and then back to a busy Saturday. Included in that Saturday was a blueblood losing two in a row through offensive struggles, and then we talk about a departed big man.
The Morning Dish – Friday, December 27, 2019
With many teams still on a holiday break but conference play ready to start in earnest, we begin a quick three-day look at some of the biggest surprises and storylines in each conference through the season’s first two months.
How the conferences shape up as conference play begins in earnest
Conference play is about to begin in earnest all around the country. How does every conference in Division I shape up after non-conference play has (mostly) completed? We take a look here.
The Morning Dish – Thursday, December 26, 2019
In a great championship game in the Diamond Head Classic, Washington let one slip away, and Houston was the beneficiary for a quality win. Plus other action in Hawaii, and a little perspective along the way.
FDU women win third straight
After a tough start to the season, the Fairleigh Dickinson women have a few wins under their belt and are showing the potential to pick up many more from there.

St. Peter’s and LIU matched up at the Barclays Center, with the Peacocks getting a win while showing some growing pains.
The Morning Dish – Tuesday, December 24, 2019
The Cougars are coming alive after a slow start, and they have been aided by a talented guard who is close to home and with a better fit. Plus a reprimand from a league office, a new Volunteer in town, and a Seahawk is going home.

It doesn’t happen often, but a visiting team won in John Paul Jones Arena, and they now will be interesting to track from an NCAA Tournament perspective. Plus the Diamond Head Classic gets underway and ends with a good one, and the Lobos will be down two starters for the time being.
The Morning Dish – Sunday, December 22, 2019
Another team atop the polls went down on Saturday, continuing the wild season we have had with conference play still mostly to come. Plus the Jayhawks lose more than a game and the Volunteers lose a key player who was no small part of their recent rise on a very busy Saturday.
