Would you promise not to whine about the lack of home games?

They've had one D1 home game so far this year. They'll be all the way up to three by the time they start their conference slate. No thanks.

Yeah I'm sure those kids are learning a lot by getting their head kicked in by 20+ points.

The problem is with Bryant's schedule we would most likely be 3-5.

I'll give you ND & the Zags. I'm not sure about the rest. I don't know enough about Northwestern, but I imagine OUr guys could hang with them.

Kinda funny to think that there is nobody on current team or staff (minus Tommy) that really truly understands how interesting/anticipated/etc this homecoming is for some of us. Should be fun though.

Man, Mychal Green is underrated.

For a few years there we sure had some guards who could attack the basket.

Might also have about 30 some hoops alums this weekend, too. Should be fun, Ben.

Can anybody tell me how Kenny looked against Marshall in terms of his shoulder affecting his stroke? Did he wear the brace?

Had a hard time getting started -- but Kenny will have a big year. The kid is a stud and he's a Senior. I'd bet anyone he will overachieve this year. He's incredibly motivated.

First game in 2 years for me at the Convo. Pumped to be able to catch them in Athens instead of the usual NE Ohio games. Leaving soon to get some Casa and a few of Jackie O's finest before the game. Hope to see the defense step up after the previous game and for Simmons to take over.

Beginning to think BBFan is to the basketball board what bcat2 is to the football board. One in the same, perhaps?

Bryant is obviously playing money games to support their program, something OHIO does not need to do.

Wonder if he will remember that "acquired taste" down at the end of the bench? Ah well, the team and staff may not have the backstory but it is legendary and ongoing on BA.

As ugly of a 26 point win as I've ever witnessed. Saul had enough himself with 5 minutes to go. Move onto the next one.

That was about as exciting as Christmas shopping. Great to see so many former players though. Looks like an 8 and at most 9 man rotation this year.

The O Zone chanting "life on the road" at the end - and whoever must have tipped them off - was priceless. Made up for a pretty ho-hum game against a bad, bad team.
