The Goal -- March 30

Postby Mitch McConnell » Fri Mar 18, 2011 10:19 am

I believe that's the date for the CIT championship game.

Time to get greedy and really go after this thing. Obviously, it's not the championship everybody pursues, but it is a championship.

Go Mustangs!

good times, but I fear our kids are sorta spent. Papa is hobbling and Rob is tired. These guys logged a ton of minutes, had to produce at elite levels every night, and are both hurt.

If we are too stay alive, somebody else has to blow up for career night. Also, Frog has to handle the pressure

Everybody is tired. People are banged up. The tank is on fumes. It's March. Everybody has been grinding since October. This is the time where u find the resolve to keep playing. Find a way. You just go play and see what happens.

would love it - but ain't gonna happen. Would be real surprised if we win on Sat. Our guys seem to be running out of gas and no fire in their belly.

kind of get the feeling that like football we ended the season pretty banged up..would explain the 2-6 regular season finish. Look at the highlights from the Houston game at home that are on hoopmanx's mixtape post..looks like a different team

Geez, you basketball die-hards are now the fatalists.

Hey, you could use a pick-me-up.

I found just the thing:

I agree w/both sides. Most teams have far more balance, and we've ridden a few horses deep into the desert. I have a lot of respect for the Jacksonville program cause Warren is a DC guy, and thought very highly of. All that said, it's at home, and it's the postseason. Let's try and find a way. Survive and Advance!
