Loved the effort at end of the game. The Greek with some nice rebounds there at the end!

Yeah, this is the second game I’ve noticed they aren’t showing them in the corners of the scoreboard. If it’s a choice and not technical issues, it’s a poor choice.

What an epic blowout. Charlotte had no chance, right from the tip.

Also, those of you wanting Pinckney for Caver to get Ahmad rest...JUST STOP. 3 turnovers tonight and just pounds the ball into the floor with no purpose. We want Hueitt with Xavier running the point. Enough is enough.

Hueitt will never run PG for this team.

Yes. Global Spectrum has had frequent issues with their staffing upstairs this season. Not sure what the issues are, but I hope they resolve them soon.

He clearly said Xavier running the point.

Thank you. Either him or Randy. Pinckney cannot give the meaningful minutes we need at the point. Try something else. Hueitt is the most efficient per 40 player on the team.

Well whoever it is, we need to develop somebody. Caver can't play every minute of every game. It's a long season. I would have thought the development of a backup point guard would have been a priority?

We will need, and probably not use, MH3 at some point when we play better teams. This team has shown great maturity, coming out and destroying the teams they are supposed to beat, but I am not sure we are good enough to beat the better teams consistently with what we are currently bringing to the table. We need to be preparing for games like VCU where we get stuck in an offensive rut, and a guy like MH3 could be the difference in top 4 and winning the whole conference.

I don’t want to jinx anything, but you have to love this squad. They play tough as nails defense, and can put up 80+ points on a good night. I like our chances with this team. Well done Jones and keep it going - you’re making me a believer.

Never have had a problem either steaming ODU games on ESPN3/Watch ESPN using Apple TV. It’s excellent every time I’ve used it.

I watched via AppleTV and had no problems... Other than the occasional drunk camera man shot and replay highlight during live action

RE: Charlotte
Love how we get out and run now. At one point we get the rebound pass down court to Randy Haynes and within 8 seconds he's launching a three and I'm going no no YES! Love it. And Caver is the man. Scoring, dishing, defense he is just really good.
I'll take 89 points any game anytime and to think we did that with Branden Stith scoring 0. We have a really good team, only thing we are lacking is big man depth. Btw, Carver is doing just fine, just wish we hadn't lost the two bigs to injuries during pres season.

Staff deserves a lot of credit for where we are right now. Getting this kind of production without much from Branden, while still locking teams down on defense is a real good place to be. Randy's willingness to pull up and take jump shots is helping the entire offensive and opponents have to respect everyone on the floor-unlike what we've seen in the past. When we had that from Freeman, no one else would pull up. And last year when we got it from Ahmad, no one else would go with him. Now you really see teams picking their poison and this backcourt, along with BJ, is delivering.
All that said, Charlotte was trash so we did what we should have done. That 16 point line that people were worried about should have been more like 24. The offense still doesn't feel fluid enough to me but I'll take what I'm seeing at this stage in the season. I hope we will get even better flow down the stretch. Respectable crowd also for December 30th. This team is good and the size on the floor is causing a lot of problems for opponents. I just wonder how it is going to match up against the stronger squads like MTSU and WKU. The time is coming soon.

RE: Charlotte
Charlotte might be the worst team be have played this year, what has happened to that team? They need to clean house and get back to a respectable program. They have solid facilities, good recruiting area, support from the community and a large fan base. It was a good game for us, even with the sloppiness in the 2nd half. While the flow wasn't so great, we made tough shots and the defense helped us get out on fast breaks. I think the balance scoring and defense are our strengths, hopefully carry us well in conference.
