& I would agree that Ehsan took a few big steps forward today.

+1



And how he coached a whale of a game in a loss? Only positive i see is less games we feature Baxter.

Potts had 7 points today on 2-10 shooting. I'm sure y'all Hak Haters think that Baxter had nothing to do with that.

I'd rather that we had gone to the rim and forced MTSU to foul us to stop us.

Though with those 3 clowns we had today, you can't count on anything being called correctly.

yet, so many complain of a lack of marketing and promotion. Had we been 24-4 and leading the nation in blocks, you would be singing the praises of the #Blockingham promotion to the heavens as genius marketing.

If we weren't using social media, you would be complaining about that as well.

Most marketing & promotion is aimed at the casual or as-yet-nonexistent fan to get them interested about the product...not die-hard fans such as yourself.

and, speaking of die-hard fans, I saw #FireRayWatts on his feet and cheering loudly more than many of the "die-hards" I know on this page...

Even though we lost, that may be the best we've played all season against a legitimate opponent. If that team shows up at Legacy, we can make a run. I thought Ehsan coached a good game. My only complaint today was his substitution patterns.

When Lee and Cokely come to play on the same day, we're a tough team. Just need more help from the guards. Hopefully the coaching staff and team realizes if they play with that level of effort they're capable of beating anyone in CUSA rather than thinking "we played with that level of effort and still lost."

MTSU very well may be ranked in the AP top 25 tomorrow.

Well sure, we lost.

Potts clearly was the third option and played like it. It was a homecoming game for Williams they rode him.

Idk about clearly. Hak was playing the best defense of anyone in the floor for those that bothered to watch the game. But hey, why let that get in the way of hate?

I saw where Tyler got in for 0.9 seconds left in the first half but never saw him again although he was at the table to go in earlier but there was no stoppage of play until then.

Did he get in at all in the second half?

Is his back bothering him that much?

He has missed a few games. It has to be the back.

Tyler hasn't played much in a month. IMO, our record is some indication of that.

Also noticed on Sunday that Commissioner McLeod was sitting at the end of press row to Derrick's right. She was sitting next to Kermit.
