So, Yale figured out how to slow them down and we couldn't.

I was at the game last night and the difference in the game was rebounding.  VMI outrebounded us by 7 and Yale killed VMI on the boards by 15.  I was out of town for the OU game so I'm not sure how we defended their three point guards but Yale pushed them left and right as opposed to allowing them to penetrate the middle.  They also did this while losing one of their best players in the second half to a wrist injury when he was fouled hard on a dunk attempt.

VMI has a 5000 seat gym that was almost full.  The crowd looked like an OU crowd and man were they loud.

Went to Clemson for an NIT game at 11AM on a Sunday morning. ....Sellout 10k crowd (AT 11AM!! AT A FOOTBALL SCHOOL) on a SUNDAY!

That stadium is the loudest place i have ever been in for a game. BAR NONE! Louder than Rupp, Louder than Old St Johns for High school Finals. louder than the old barn at the State Fairgrounds. louder than Kokomo HS for regionals., louder than Hinkle for semi states. ....Absolutley Louder than anyplace I have ever been. Sitting behind the bench I wondered how any coaching got done in TO's

Amazing experience. Rode the bike up from Covington Ga, got to ride the North GA mountains and got to see a close game with an amazing crowd. 

Oh yeah.....did I mention this was in the *Not the NCAA* tourney.
