Beyond disappointing giving up a 20 pt lead with less than 20min left. Also making a double bye unlikely. I do believe Russell will come back Saturday and have a stellar game and maybe this game suspension gets him to contain himself on the court finally. If costing the team wins, it should have an impact. If this doesn't, then I doubt it will happen during his career.

Despite not having Russell (our best player) we had this game won, and then we had it given to us when Lindenwood got T up for not having any timeouts in OT and we still lost, and Harris's shot almost went in forcing a third overtime. The OVC tournament is wide open and could be a lot of fun. If we can play some defense and keep our foot on the gas, when we get a team down, we can win this thing and go dancing. I think with coach BK we headed for bigger things to come.

I think having the 2 seed would have been huge for this team, it is still possible but not likely at this point.
