Last game: Charlotte jumped out to a 31-17 lead to open the game, but USF rallied to cut the lead to 2 at HT. Charlotte then led 50-45 to open the second half, but USF went on a 15-4 run and held the 49ers at bay from there. A potential game-winning three fell short at the buzzer. Charlotte had 4 players in double figures: Adrian White 16 (5-9 3s); Jon Davis and Andrian White 15 each and Jaylan McGill 12 (3-5 3s) off the bench.

Coach Mark Price dismissed after the Chattanooga loss. Mark’s son Hudson (starter, .627 FG, .524 3s,10.2 pts/g) left the team. Team has rallied around interim coach Houston Fancher, beating ECU and playing USF to the final buzzer.

Thanks for posting. Their starters are experienced and should be tough. Hopefully, we can wear them down and take advantage of their freshman bench. Should be a tough game.

Pretty impressive how many minutes go to their bench. Looks like they play a lot of small ball with all those guards. I noticed UNCC has Davis’ game winner against us on their website with a handful of other highlights. And I distinctly remember Garvin’s hard foul on Caver at the end of the game at the Ted. I’m looking forward to this game. Should be a good one.
