Caught the last few minutes of this game on ESPN3. Juice Brown hit a three pointer with 0.7 seconds left to lift the Rockets over the Norse, 57-55. This was Toledo's first and only lead of the game. NKU was up 34-20 at the half. Juice struggled offensively the entire game but came through with the game on the line.

MAC 4-0 so far today with two games remaining.

I look forward to seeing the Rockets in the Convo in a couple weeks.

Former Ohio grad assistant Dante Jackson joined the Norse staff last summer after a couple of years as a grad assistant at his alma mater, Xavier. He's an impressive young man - I wouldn't be surprised to see him move up quickly.

I expect the NKU program to be successful. Good location and interest.

I was driving around and caught the game on the radio. Reds PBP man Jim Kelch was doing PBP for NKU. The Rockets were down big at half and fought back.

This isn't the first time Toledo has played below their ability this year. I really think the Rockets have the most talent in the league, but their inconsistency is puzzling, and could prove to be a killer in Cleveland.

NKu is a school that Ohio should play. If uc and xu wont play us I'm sure NKU will. If Ohio wants to Recruit Cincinnati that's a good way to start and lots of alums are in the area.

Oxford not that much farther away - and we play there every year...........

Play NKU? Only if they come to the Convo.

I wouldn't mind playing them in their arena. It's a very nice and modern arena and with so many OU alumni in the Cincinnati area I'm sure we could have just as many fans their as they would have.

I could hear a buck nut fan saying the same thing about playing in the Convo........

I'd be happy with a one for one, or two for one with NKU. I've been wanting to catch a game in that arena soon. Might as well be OUr guys playing when I visit.
