That was the best I've seen the Herd play in years.

Antonio Gates is a GREAT player. He is incredibly skilled. He's big. He's mean. He's very quick. He has long arms. He's a very good ball handler. He has great vision. He knows how to play. He's a good shooter. He can draw fouls. He can defend. He's a great passer. He's ferocious. He has a huge heart. It was a pleasure to boo him.

Yes, our mission this year is not glory for ourselves--been there, done that--but to help elevate the other teams in the MAC by having them play their best games against us.
Marshall, Ball St., BG, OU, NIU...

We're just happy to do our part. :D

What you say about Antonio is true, but I would say Gates is a good shooter, not great, and last night everyone but Wilkins was a POOR shooter! 29%???? And honestly, it didn't sound like it was the Herd D that was making us shoot 29%. Not to take anything away from the Herd's effort last night, though I'd like to.
I had a feeling we'd be flat last night... :(

We are not just flat, we are worn out. We have a rookie coach who coaches 3 minutes at a time. And he is good for any 3 minutes. What he forgot is that a season is 20+ games. He did not consider that his schedule called for him to play 5 games in 11 nights in February. Therefore, he has 5 worn out players and a demorlized bench. Not bad for having the best 10 players in the conference. And, that is not just my opinion. Get ready for more give it to 44 and get out of the way. Watch the triple team and the turnover. What creative game planning. We have watched the demise of a top 20 program in a slow painful way. I am angry.

GFlash68 you and i are on the same page. Now even a Greg White coached team can figure out our one dimensional offense. Pathetic coaching. Anybody know who created the fire Rollie Massimino website as i might need to give him a call if i have to watch this next year.

Does Christian have a clue? How many times has he asked Gates to bring the ball up the court, score, try to run our so called offense, and then have him guard the other teams best post player all while playing 35-40minutes a game.

Bedford and Brown are 2 of the most underutilized players in the MAC.

Tell me, how a coach can comment that Marshall's 6-10 guy kept shooting over our 6'-4" guy (Bedford). Did our 6-9, 250 pound guy on the end of bench (Brandon Roach) fall off the end of the bench. Part of coaching is nurturing players to be better. (Assuming that Roach is not already better) How do we know?
