ETSU Game
Think the boys are playing well enough to win this one on the road?
Ball movement has been up and down. Some games it looks great, other games I wonder just who is on the court. Shooting the same way. Stegall is doing wonders in the paint. Could be a little bit more aggressive to get those rebounds but I'll take the points and then lane any day. Plus when Wooten wants a rebound, it's hard to stop him. Long armspan, great jumping ability and strong presence down low.
Pull an upset and go over .500 in the conference would be nice but challenging on the road.

Should be a good game. Hopefully Wooten wont get into a fight with anyone this year...

who did wooten get in a fight with last year again?
if i were etsu i'd be worried about wooten. if he gets it going with his three point shooting, etsu could be in for a long night. i'm also sure he still has a chip or two on his shoulder from last year.

Ben Rhoda and Wooten got into it. Rhoda has graduated now. I wonder how much animosity the two teams will have really, since ETSU basically has a new team now.

Wooten is a heck of a player.
Great leaper. Quick. Very quick off his feet. Did I say quick ?

Wooton was impressive. Almost had a little fight but it settled down quickly. You could tell the teams don't like each other.

So what's with Ingle? He couldn't throw it in the ocean. I havnet seen that many airballs in a long time. From what I remember last year he could drain the 3. This year he couldn't do anything. Has this been going on all year?

ESPN- Wooten
The kid can play. I saw this morning on ESPN that one of Wooten's dunk was #10 on the Play of the Day.

Wooten was incredibly impressive. He is one of the quickest and most explosive leapers I've seen in a while. He got the one off.rebound and dunked before our guys could jump again. And that alley oop...oh my lord!! Very, very impressive player. I'll be glad when he graduates.
Stegall's not too shaby, either. Clearly one of the best big men in the league.

I would first like to say great game KSU. Glad we could win the game, even though I was a little worried that Wooten was going to lead his team to victory. He had half of there points going into halftime pretty much. Very solid player. Glad he got in foul trouble or it might have ended in a different manner. Look forward to play KSU once again! Go BUCS

Just got to say it. First point Ingle scored was in OT. That hurts. You can pass all day long and break the press wonderfully as he does but I can't help but think if he makes 1 basket out of his 10 tries in regulation, there wouldn't be a need for OT.
I had about 20 people over at my place while the game was on and the school just lacks school spirit. Attendance at home games is critical. Have we thought about giving Andre the PG position part time? Or maybe Ragsdale? Zach is not far enough along to take the position yet in my opinion.
Great game by everyone else... really kept it entertaining and we could have gotten the W. I'm looking forward to watching the rematch at home.

Good luck in your next game with ETSU... I was cheering for you guys on TV. Oh and on a side note, I'll be at the Mercer @ KSU game. The first time I'll see your gym.

Cool I'm looking forward to seeing your arena. I'll be the guy in the orange mercer shirt, lol.
Our baseball field itself is very very nice, totally renovated just a couple years ago (new grass, dirt, and wall)... the stands on the other hand could use some work, but they are OK.
As for basketball, yes we lost one of our big men for the rest of the season (academic reasons)... he was averaging over 9 boards, over 9 points, and almost 3 blocks. You guys are definitely a tough team for us (OT last game), so it should be a good game!!
