With all of the people who complain on here about our schedule please tell me you will take a peek at Central Michigan's sked? Michigan is the only team of note with a bunch of Northwestern Ohio's on the rest of the slate. I would go so far as to say it's pathetic. Even with all of our injuries we would be 12-1 against their schedule.

Looking at it makes me wonder if the CMU coaching staff gets paid by the victory.

The lack presence under the basket both in scoring and rebounding is painfully obvious tonight. Admittedly CM is shooting well but they are getting a lot of good looks. It’s going to be a long year.

Outscored 16-0 to start the second half. Russ just mentioned he has never seen that in all his times as an announcer.

Saul Ball is awesome.

I don't think Ohio can beat Central in anything.

I’m afraid it’s going to be a long year. Individual players seem pretty good, team play not so much. You have to wonder if losing Carter has demoralized the team. Laster,mickle and Kirk are having good years. Dartis pretty good. Others not so much.

Injuries or not, this wasn't the same team we've seen earlier in the year that has battled and battled and battled. Just a bad game all around. Pack it up, get home and get better.

100% Saul, and the system with him. It is not working. Players are not developing. Dartis has 4 points? Why? He has regressed in this system. Freshman year he attacked to compliment his outside game, but that was more or less residual from his high school system.

The better question is what school is in the field of 68 sooner, Ohio or Akron? My money is on Groce, and they looked terrible tonight. I know it will not take him 5 years to get that program righted.

Tonight's drubbing reminded me a little of some of Dale Bandy's teams; some decent talent but just awful overall.

Feel sorry for Laster in a way. Seems like as well as he plays it may be a long year.

We have to develop players better. Everyone has remained stagnant at best. We can get hot and right this ship, go Cats

Alllen we have to start with better players. Imagine where we would be without the graduate transfer this year? It appears to me that Saul recruits just like FS a. Under the radar guys. We have to do better than that in basketball.
