Tough turnaround after a tough game last night. Need to pull this one out.

18 pts first 7 mins. Fast start as usual. Now enter human rain delay

Everybody else got a terribly herky-jerky video feed?

Very nearly unwatchable for me. First time I've had issues this season.

You have a hate boner for Sloan? I noticed when I showed in last game they actually built the lead when Sloan came in at the 7 minute mark you didn't respond.

This game, Up 6 points. left up 7 (ETSU had 25)
Scored 8 points in about 3 minutes.
ETSU has scored 5 points in last 8 minutes plus with Sloan on the Bench.
But yeah it ALL His fault yank the scholarship.

ugly first half ending....what will Shay do?

Monsanto is taking over but I would like to see both Brewers and maybe Smith or Adheke step up as well.

Monsanto is an amazing player.

He's a stud and a warrior and a superior talent, but (imo) he doesn't yet *quite* have enough maturity to realize when he's trying to do too much himself. When he's taking half (or more) of the shots, others are losing rhythm and not being as focused on each ball movement.

Bad decision by Patterson to not take that under-the-goal shot with 1:05, then ball lost by L.A.

You have a point, we are still learning each others strengths and weaknesses, so time will tell if we are team players

If Monsanto can do it, as he is right now....i guess let him

Thank God for Monsanto. L Brewer just doesn't seem normal.

VMI vs Wofford going into OT

VMI up 7 with about 1:25 left.

Keydets win. I love it.

70-64 Bucs in a road game that they were picked to lose by Kenpom. Gutty second half stretch from the Bucs, upping the defense, creating turnovers, and finally putting it away.
24 points on 4-8 from 3 with 10 rebounds and 3 steals from Damari
11 points and 10 rebound for Silas
14 points but only 1 assist from Sloan. He controlled the ball at the end, running clock. Did not get trapped or turn it over. But sometimes nobody else touches the ball. LA Brewer, one of the best offensive players in the SoCon, disappears from the offense when this happens. Shay did run one play for him at the end, but LA missed the shot.
