Are there fans at the tournament? Any board members planning to be there?

If you are looking for a soundtrack to kill the next couple hours until we tip off, I did my annual MAC tourney pod with Arkley. This tweet has the relevant links for Apple Podcasts and Spotify:

We also talked a lot about how covering teams has changed over the past year because of the pandemic. I knew access has been limited, but I didn’t realize just how much. As a media nerd, I found it pretty interesting.

90 minutes from tip and we still don't know who isn't playing for the green and white. Have to give credit to Boals, staff and players. They sure know how to keep things quiet.

Thanks, Tom. Glad to have Arkley get a chance to speak (besides to me through a mask!).

Team Twitter account has been posting a few pics. Looks like Preston and DWIII are suiting up ... have to imagine the positive test likely not in the locker room.

Ball State giving Toledo a test. Was a tie game about midway through the half but Toledo up 68-63 with 4 to go.

Anyone else thinking that the 5 in the pic could be the starting 5 for today?
Would mean that Vander Plas and Roderick are out.

You can't get any closer to a buzzer beater than that. I still think his finger nail may have still been grazing the ball when he released that. Either way I love the approach and going to the hoop...most guys would've just posted up a tough 3.

If they were wanting signal the starting lineup they might have posted a "Starting Five" GIF as they sometimes have. It they have been keeping a secret from Kent then why would they give a hint now? I suspect that this is the five guys that were sitting under the Monsters logo. We'll see,

Should Toledo have gotten a shot clock violation on its last possession? I don’t think that shot hit the rim. I guess Ball State doesn’t have much room to complain, though. They ended up with two shots to tie and then a third chance with that tip-in attempt at the buzzer. Tough finish.

The rumor about Kent State's Pippen and Hamilton is that they were in an "altercation," but they should both be playing today.

Confirmed by the Record-Courier that Pippen appears not to be playing.

Oh boy. I don't like to celebrate any player's absence...but I have no shame in admitting I just got a lot more confident.

I agree...especially when our players out haven't been announced.
