So tickets are $15? Might diminish the crowd...Kinda pricey for a family of 4-5. Wish season tickets were honored with a 1st round MAC game. Didn't they used to be?
They used to always be free for season ticket holders but then Ohio U a few years ago started charging. I think $15 is pretty extreme plus the students are on spring break

I'd say BVP is just fine...what a half by him...JP on watch for another triple double....And great lock down defense again. Our bread and butter.

I had wrong day to be in Cleveland, had to be there for prior scheduled business meetings and could not get to the Convo for tonight. Pains me seeing strangers in my seats on the broadcast (though I hope they are enjoying the game!).

However - looks like I might be making a trip Back to Cleveland sooner than prior planned - for a Bobcats BUSINESS meeting..... :)

Wow, we just jumped on them from the start. We should rest the starters after the under four minute timeout.

We open as 5.5 pt favorites
Seems about right to me. I expect a relatively easy win and then off to Cleveland.
Oh boy.....folks....there is nothing easy for Ohio basketball this year. And if memory serves me right..didn't a heavily favored Ohio squad led by Brandon Hunter lose in the first round at home to CMU many years ago?

And with our injury situation, who knows how this game will play out.
Have some confidence. Hell it was even way more easy than I expected.

We are playing better and playing with heart. That said, I would not be complacent about this game.

Couldn't agree more. There is nothing "easy" in March.
Nothing easy in March??? Tonight sure proved that statement wrong. That was a complete mismatch.

They were never free - they were just included in your season ticket package. $15 for a D 1 basketball ticket? Folks are a bit spoiled her in SE Ohio.

Agree. As I noted earlier in this thread could not be there tonight - and $15 tic price was by no means the reason. Some other couple it looks stepped up and got my seats - though not sure exactly what they paid for those seats right behind the bench - And they got a Great D1 BBall post season experience...I am pleased about that.

Correct, you always paid for them with your season tickets.

Outstanding all around player. I've enjoyed watching him play through his career. Agree it's a relief we won't have to face him any more.

Boals found a new way to defend McKay that had some success. Ogbanda, when he was on the floor, was assigned McKay and played off of him when he had the ball on the perimeter as shooting the 3 is not his strength. Reminded me of a game in the Convo 2 years ago when McKay was guarded by AJ Gareri. McKay dribbled out beyond the 3-pt line on multiple occassions, bringing Gareri with him, and then blew by him for easy looks around the basket. Says a lot about the new coach on the bench.
