Lamar should be interesting.  They have some height but the five guys that get the most minutes are 6'6", 6'5", 6'2", 6'1" and 6'1".  Devon Lamb is 6'2' and is averaging 11.5 rebounds after averaging 8.5 last year.  It appears that they are very aggressive on the offensive glass averaging about 20 offensive rebounds in their two games.  If we can keep them from killing us on the boards we may be able to rip them a new one on fast breaks.  Interestingly, their 6'6" guy appears to be mostly a perimeter player.

Do y'all not like to talk about the games?  I'm excited for this one.  The all-time series is 1-1 with you folks winning in '09.  I think it'll be a great game!




Go, LU!

Heads up for you Lamar guys, you can watch the game on ohiobobcats.com

I'm hoping we see the team we saw in the 1st half Sunday and not the lazy team we saw in the 2nd half.  Cooper and Keely both played well last year against Lamar.  Hoping to see Baltic get going this time around..

Hey Lamar folks...welcome aboard...those of us who traveled to Louisville for the tournament a few years ago have some "nice" memories of Coach Roccaforte! 

Should be a good one tonight.  Ohio was Jeckyll and Hyde in its first game vs. UTM.

Thanks for that, Optimist.  We last played you folks in '09.  It was a bad game for us.  I think we'll compete this time.  I noticed that we can watch the game online through your site.  That's great!  We have all-access through our site for home games, so it's great to get to catch some away games.  I know a lot of our fans (myself included) will be watching the game in Athens as well as the game in Beaumont (Lady Cards vs. Ole Miss) tonight!  Good luck to both teams!  I look forward to seeing a good game in Ohio tonight.

Yeah, well, Louisville got to see Pat Knight get his first technical at Lamar very quickly. 

I liked Roccaforte.  He was a Lamar grad.  He wasn't just using us to climb the ranks.  That was his dream job.

One thing dividing our fans' attention right now is that we have a football game Wednesday night vs. BGSU in which we can clinch the MAC East. 

Will be interesting to see how Ohio defends the motion offense and if we show enough patience to get good shots against your defense.

They will not have to defend the motion offense, Coach Knight has been focusing mainly on playing defense. He has not put in his whole offense yet.

Of all our many games in the Convo against "smaller" conference schools, this is probably the scariest.  I could see a loss tonight.  I could also see a blowout win...at this point, who knows?

If all things go correctly, you will see a loss.     I kid, I kid...

Any predictions for the Mojo Killer Row of Gray Hairs in front of the Ozone for the Lamar game?

I say 50% full, 95% gray, and 100% dull.

The AD put in new courtside seats in front of our student section and it is filled with a bunch of old, white haired donors. I'm glad they give to the AD, but they kind of kill the emotion or whatever of the student section.


Any chance the General shows up tonight?

What a beating!  Is your student section behind a bench or is it on the endcourt?  Ours is endcourt by the visitors' 2nd half goal.  It leaves the benches for one side of the court and media/chairs for the other sidecourt.

How exactly do you have divided attention for games that are roughly 24 hours apart from each other?
