Gutsy comeback performance. Definitely did not see any quit out there today. And it wasn't just Dartis being hot. We carved up their zone in the second half with passes in the paint, and really should have won by more . Defense, except for Thompson IV, was also good most of the time.

Safe to say Jordy looks healthy.
Today

Those hips and the soft tissue around them are day to day. Right mix of rest, meaningful practice, shooting drills and reps, ice, NSAID and luck. Throw in a dose of grit and toughness to get through
This. You don't go from coach saying Jordy's hips won't heal just with time off and that he'll be dealing with this injury all year long on Tuesday to "Jordy looks healthy" on Saturday.

He probably felt "better". He toughed it out and got hot. Thankfully. Let's hope that trend continues.

Given how many times I've seen really good Bobcats teams play bad in Ypsilanti, in pretty happy with this one.

Outcomes seem very reliant on how we match up with the opponent. We just aren’t healthy enough to beat teams regardless of individual matchups or playing styles.

I’d like to see us play with 3-4 guards in the court for as long as we can (Kirk, Butler, Dartis, Laster)

The goal for the Bobcats starting today after the win at EMU would be to end up 4-2 between now and Feb. 9th before the road game at Western. That is possible if they can grab a win at Akron Tuesday.

We open as 5.5pt underdogs
Take EMU and bet the house.
Well....now you all know why my gambling buddies ask me who I like and take the opposite!

Jordie on fire! 7/10 from 3 point land. Strong effort!


And a much deserved - IN MY FACE! I'm happy to take one! Even happier we won.

Not sure how Rob Murphy from EMU isnt on the hot seat. A lot off .500 and not much else at EMU. Really good athletes, just not really good results.

Great win today. There is so much parity in the MAC this year. It is shocking that we are only 1 game back of the current 3 seed
