To bad we could not get a game in the middle of last week.

He's looking like an average backup player.....

It looks like he is really pressing. when he was in hs, his size allowed him to go inside when he wanted. Can't do that in college. He really needs to relax and play his game.

I do not think the layoff hurt that much. Moore has a bad ankle and needed the rest. It is not like exam time when you cannot practice. I am more concerned with the upcoming 3 games in 5 days coming up soon.

I would rather play 3 games in 5 days than just practice for 7 days anytime. Also they can practice during exam time because certain days they had practice and other days they had individual workouts.

I totally agree with mrydel. The exam break is completely different than the post Christmas period where they aren't even in school much less studying. Too easy excuse. Backcourt just got outplayed. Now Moore's injury might be a reason-I don't know

Backcourt did get out played. Well everyone has been saying that the AAC is a guard oriented league.

But look at this. We played a competitive game against the defending national champions, and feel pretty good about our chances against them at home. We have come a long way and still trending upward.

Honestly with the way we played I'm not too upset. We have shown we can challenge anyone in this league, and I'm fairly confident we are going to get the major wins we need at home.

That's impossible, he's a HS McD.

Hey, adding Wyoming to the list and going 2-2 is great. A lot of bball left.

Agree with both. Weathered a tough stretch and looked pretty darned good despite setbacks. We should take care of the bottom half.

second half was strong. Playing Louisville at their place without a key element (Yannick) and still having it a game right up to the end was actually pretty positive. Lets take care of business the next three games - that will be very important. Don't give away games to anyone below us.
