My son is running a fever today but as long as he's well I'm in + wife + son + a bunch of his friends. NO ONE TAKE OUR FAVORITE SEATS!
Looks like we're going to be an out. You can take our seats.
Hope he feels well enough to sit by the radio with his dad imagining play on the dial. Those at home snacks better than waiting in line for yesterday's pretzel..

Why does Miami's court have two three point lines?

Why are the numbers and letters on the back of Miami’s jerseys so small?

Why don’t we concentrate on the three-point line against these guys?
That’s it, boys, stand in the lane and leave the best three-point shooting team in the conference wide open.

Can we not have a good set play out at this time out and get a damn basket? We simply have no lead out there.

Boals basically never runs set plays.

1 of 10 for three so far.

When you're a 4 out team, that ain't a good sign.

Sure seem like we are on 22 points from most of the half! Just not shooting the ball well enough to win on the

Down 9 after that ghastly stretch feels fortunate.

It's beyond me how Boals could believe Vic Searls was the answer, even as a backup.

He works hard, has a soft touch around the rim, but just doesn't have the athleticism, length, or quickness for this level.

Gross to watch.

Time to start wondering if Ohio is going to make the MAC Tournament. I think it’s going to take 8-10 for the 8th spot. Where are the three wins in last nine games coming from?

I am here and it blows my mind how we continue to short arm shots. Pavs and AJB are non-existent. Thank you Reef for keeping us in the game.

Lots of negatives when it comes to Millet. A new one to add to the list is the statistician. EJ's second made FG was given to Evans; JP credited with 0 assists in the 1st half when I recall at least 2 passes setting up ohio baskets.

On the other hand, I do appreciate the home team's color commentator on ESPN+ informing the viewers that "Ohio wants to outscore miami today."

Reef playing well. That's about it.

I have no earthly idea how AJ Brown isn't told to take 20 shots a night with this hodgepodge group, as long as 10 of them are inside the arc from penetrating or pulling up. He can't just be a stand in the corner catch and shoot guy.

I'd like to see Elijah Elliott be more aggressive on O as well.

Ajay Sheldon, keeps scrapping on D. If only he knew how to put the orange round thing inside the orange metal thing.

Every minute Ayden Evans is on the court is brutal to watch. I said before the season he might not be ready yet. What an understatement.

If it indeed takes 8-10, we can't drop any of our games against WMU (x2) and CMU.

We have BG, Kent, and Toledo away. Easy to see that as 0-3, even with Clayton back.

We have CMU, Akron, Miami, and EMU at home. 1-3 isn't out of the question there, as good as we are at home.

So long as we win against Central and Western, we guarantee 8-10.

Athleticism, strength, quickness, length, none of our players have that whole combination. Vic is not the issue. It is our returning stars that are not stars this year. Nobody has grown in a bit.

Pointing out something about Searls' is not the same as saying he's the biggest problem.

The biggest problem is Boals. Nobody else to blame. It's his team.

I believe we recruited Antwone Woolfolk pretty heavily and he ended up at Miami. What we would kill to have an Antwone Woolfolk on our roster? We have nobody with his athleticism.

Vic can't play 20 minutes in the 2nd half and boals opts to go with 5 guards/wings rather subbing in Evans. I have to wonder how Boals will address this roster makeup deficiency, yet every offer to high school players seemingly goes to 6-6 or smaller players.

Woolfolk sucks. We are losing because we cannot stop his teammates.

I hear you, but Evans has been absolutely awful.

He’s averaging nearly 9 points and 7 rebounds per game and he does the dirty work. We would take that in a heartbeat.
