Ted, in the interest of making plans for Tuesday: Ohio plays Tuesday at 2:30 if they win/lose Monday; plays at 4:30 if they win/lose Monday? Also, any TV Tuesday?

Thanks

For as disappointing as the season has been so far it hasn't been that bad. If you really think about it - Bad 1h vs FGCU - Bad 2h vs St. Bonny - Bad ot vs Evansville - outside of that it hasn't been awful.

I totally agree that this year is deceiving thus far. I realize that we aspire to be a top mid-major team but with a new coach, a new system and guys who looked to Nick as the sole leader of last year's team, I think we're ok. I believe Belmont will be in the Dance, I think Evansville can make the Dance if they finish second in the MVC. I think Bonnies and FGCU can also won their conference. They have 30 wins together, not too shabby. I think the MAC non con records are so bloated for teams like Kent and Central. Every time they win I think "Who is that?"

I will look for this team to lose 3 games in MAC play. That's good enough to get a double bye. Book it!

Let me also toss out that next year we will be unstoppable. I think Simmons is a "Saul" type of PG while Kaminski is going to tear up. Tony will dominate the inside and Ryan Taylor and Laster will be a year older. Toss in Treg as a senior leader, Wadley another year older and guys like Dartis and Block stepping in and we are an NCAA team for sure.

Agreed.
I'm encouraged by the fact that we can play absolutely terrible and still beat bad teams. To me, that says that there is a base level of talent here. We just need to put it all together...

Where does it say he's not in Hawaii? I'm not seeing anything from Arkley stating this.

In fact, in this article Saul mentions that he might look to him in Hawaii because of the 3 games in 4 day set up.

Yep, nothing is more infuriating than a player catching the ball, taking one dribble and then picking it up with no real plan.

No ball movement at all forces bad shots.

+1, the only hope I can see if the best looking players on the court are freshman.

Is it possible our two best players are sitting out the year - Simmons and Kaminski?
