With most teams, the guy in a suit standing and yelling at players/officials is called the "head coach"

Stanford's Jerod Haase is the "Anne and Tony Joseph Director of Men's Basketball"

Backup center Josh Sharma (7'0") checking in after timeout. During warmups, he was trying a bunch of Blake Griffin dunks.

Ponies lead, 19-3

Wow, talk about a hot start. Smu being aggressive driving the paint. This is the way for this team to play.

[sadderbudweiser]

Harry leaving may be a blessing. Now there is no reason to play any other way.

Loving this.

I can't complain but was really hoping fan attendance was better. We have a named program and yet looks like only 4K people are there. I would have made it if I weren't ill at the moment. So here's to helping the tv ratings!
