Fouls made him great.
Fouls and non fouls allowed the win.

Rutgers is next.
Aim the "get over it" at those who rail on the coach or worse our players for days on end after a loss hotshot.

Van Exel killed us, but so did Corey Blount, Herb Jones, and Anthony Buford. That was a tough Cincinnati team.

I will take my chances against them in the AAC tournament. I don't feel he will dominate us again, play decent yes, but dominate no. Also, Napier is good but not Van Excel good in my opinion.
Joe had a good game, but one of the biggest plays of the game was when Joe ducked under a screen up top late in game and allowed Napier a wide open 3 we knew he was gonna bury. That shot was a game changer...

Yea, I saw that too. He did it a couple times, not sure why. I've heard Coach Pastner say he got on Dixon several times for going under screens.
