I am excited at the possibility of having 10 scholarship players available. Did anyone notice if Foster was in a boot yesterday?

This program is not in the same shape it was in when they beat us in the whatever tournament and light years behind the Kenneth Faried era. I think we can and should win this one by 20+.

This game won't be close. Marshall beat Morehead St. by 27 recently and Marshall is 4 and 6 with double digit losses to Toledo (twice) and Akron. Ohio wins by a huge margin.

I’m glad that they’re not very good so we can work Miles Brown and Marvin Price into the rotation. I really liked the quickness of Miles last night and I think he will contribute. It made sense last night but Jay Preston can’t play 40 minutes per game all year. Hopefully the other guys will also return soon.

Agree with you on the minutes for Preston, and I'll add Dartis. We need those guys for every game this year - managing their minutes seems really important to me.

University of North Alabama who just went D-1 in basketball last year beat Morehead State by ten after leading by 16. This needs to be a win.

With everyone healthy I imagine the starters the same
PG: Preston
SG: Dartis
3: McDay
4: BVP
5: Ogbonda

6th man for Dartis or McDay: Roderick
7th man: Foster for Ogbonda
8th man: McMurray for BVP, Ogbonda or Foster
9th: Miles Brown for Preston
10th: Murrell for 3 or 4
11th: Springs

That would leave Price out for now if he's not ready. In that case I would wonder why he's burning useless minutes in games to burn his redshirt?

In the MAC I am worried about Balls, Toledo, BG, Beefs and Kent. I feel like we can compete with everyone else. Out of my worries I am truly only thinking we get swept by Kent.

How apathetic does one's life have to be to take the time to troll someone who actually shares what I can only imagine is the same love for the same school? You think that because you've been on this board for a while and have a ton of posts that this is cool? It isn't cool. It's actually counterproductive to what this board is all about.

Given that you make the post about the hypothetical line up about 75 times a calendar year, yeah, it's a little funny. ;)


What is this board all about, now in 2019-2020, in your opinion?

I'm guessing we're probably going to see a few starting lineups this year depending on matchups. I really like a lineup of JP, Jordy, McDay, Roderick and BVP to speed up the tempo.

Well... 20 more minutes of that lazy, humiliating defense that frankly has no business being on a D1 basketball court and they will have a truly humiliating loss on their hands.

Our players don't seem to have much pride. Leaving guys wide open for 3 all night. No intensity. No energy. This would be a humiliating loss. Lots of these kids should look in the mirror at half time and ask themselves if they care enough to deserve a free education.

Not really. This team isn't very talented. They scored 57 points on North Alabama. For some context, North Alabama just gave up 92 to Alabama A&M.

This is a really bad team and the only reason they're scoring at will is because our players are lazy and lack any self respect or heart.

This is the kind of game where you just know the program is going the wrong direction. This is so horrible.

Bench these guys and play the walk ons or something. This is preposterous.

Trailing 59-58.

Down at home with just a few minutes to go against one of the worst teams in the entire nation.

Wowzers.

Now 63-62, trailing one of the worst teams in the entire country on their home court.

These kids are truly gutless.

Thought we were out of the woods getting up by 7 with under 2 minutes to go.

But if anyone can blow a huge lead like that in 90 seconds to one of the worst teams in the nation, it's probably this crew.

Not at the game and don't know jsmoke but from the looks of it he/she goes to the negative rather easily. We have to remember that most of us thought this team would have a losing record going into MAC play and that is not the case. Everything is relative.

You should probably go back where you came from.
