One game in and so it begins.
Well done.
I did listen in at spots while in car, seemed a pretty typical MBB game, series of runs and answers. Get up, they have a mini run and we're back within 3-4 pts.
Good news is, as that same old creepy feeling was beginning to take hold, the near patented JMU blown lead and 5 pt loss after leading most of the night, didn't take happen here.
As noted several times above, we hit some FT's (those are "free" correct? No hand in face etc.?!?) and this thing isn't really that close. But, even with that glaring hole they managed to close it out for a season opening W. Take that W, stick it in the back pocket, on to the next one. Job reasonably well done.
If this team can continue to progress (*cough FT's cough*) and show this program still has a pulse, people may well begin to tune in again.
Faaaar to early to tell, of course, but the early season optimism blooms anew.
