I don't think the author quite grasps the concept of 'mid major' as it pertains to college basketball.

I think the author grasps the concept of "mid major" as it pertains to college basketball more than you grasp the concept of a metaphor.

quote:

---

LSU's resume (i.e. profile) resembles that of a mid-major.

---

okay,that's a little more accurate.

quote:

LSU. The Tigers have two small problems adding up to one big one. Their light non-conference schedule and the dearth of elite teams in the SEC -- our highest-seeded team was a No. 8, Florida -- gives LSU the profile of an excellent mid-major.

He's saying their resume appears similar to that of a mid-major.

---

No, if you read the article, he's classifying LSU as a mid-major.

He writes: "...what to do with the best mid-majors:..."

Then he goes on to list Davidson, Siena, St. Mary's and LSU, with a discussion of each.

quote:

---

In basketball, we are a mid major.

---

No. We aren't. SEC = major, no matter how up or down the conference is.

No, if you read the article, he's classifying LSU as a mid-major.

He writes: "...what to do with the best mid-majors:..."

quote:

---

Yes, because he is popping off.

---

What does that even mean?

quote:

---

In basketball, we are a mid major.
