The good news is JMU may have already done enough to build a solid at-large NCAA case should the Dukes fail to win the CAA. The Virginia win is huge, of course, and the Georgetown victory looks better every day. Liberty's a decent win, too. Plus, the NCAA committee takes into account a key injury. Should the Dukes suffer a bad loss or two in the coming weeks, the fact that Evans didn't play will be considered. It's just one more reason why Dawn shouldn't even think about rushing back. The program will be fine in her absence. She needs to make sure she's fine, too.ladyswishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649376330283711600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3199845350252743558.post-9852519388674878112009-12-08T19:34:27.642-05:002009-12-08T19:34:27.642-05:00I think they can be a special team this year.

Let's see how they respond to Dawn Evan's absence over the next few weeks.SpinTurnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13991959340386382097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3199845350252743558.post-13354459918447234922009-12-08T10:46:31.038-05:002009-12-08T10:46:31.038-05:00JMU should set the school record for attendance wh...JMU should set the school record for attendance when these teams meet next year. Say, we've followed the Dukes on radio but have yet to see them in person this year. I assume you have, so what do you think of them. I mean, just how good are they?ladyswishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649376330283711600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3199845350252743558.post-56662826061197503012009-12-07T20:34:50.749-05:002009-12-07T20:34:50.749-05:00A rivaly is born?

After a few more close contests the annual series ended in 1989. The two had only met once since then. Until yesterday. And you can bet it wasn't the Dukes that couldn't find room in their schedules. <br /><br />On a positive note, the two are apparently scheduled to play in Harrisonburg next season. But after that??? I wouldn't hold my breath.SpinTurnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13991959340386382097noreply@blogger.com
