If you play even a somewhat mediocre first half, this game is won. 17 points in the first is a joke.

39 pts in the 2nd half. Make a few free throws and a couple of good looks. UGH.

I didn't hear the starting lineup but from what I could tell when I joined the game it sounded like he used the same 5 that he did against Florida Gulf Coast...little help.

If so, don't you think he should realize there are no points in that group and that he should just let the freshmen grow up at the start?

Frog needs to come off the bench. It doesn't sound like he's getting the penetration needed.

There arent any "places" in the consolation bracket, and there is still one more game to play. SMU, Brown, and Monmouth are all 0-3, so you could say we are tied for 14th.

Aern't most of the players' seeing playing time frosh & soph, with the exception of Nyakundi and Giles? Just have to have patience until Smith & Williams are ready to see playing time. What about Nick Russell? Did he get the hardship waiver, or is that still up in the air.

Pats needs to ride pine. Doh should be playing the lineup that made the comeback. Vilde is getting a little better.

Since only 16 teams entered, yeah we are tied for 14th, with the other 0-3 teams.

Yeah, we were on a roll until Doh subbed 3 out at once.

oh oh isn't that we were afraid of with Doh getting substitution happy with so many options?...he didn't have many options last year, so it wasn't as much of an issue.
