"ODAC" ???? Think Tony said obligatory nice things in his immediate postgame, but he did not appear in a good mood and obviously his thoughts not on the conversation.

Outscored the Seahawks by 22 in the second half, plus 15 for 16 from the line down the stretch. That's good basketball.

Yeah I thought the same when I heard that (ODAC) and watched his body language.

How about Tony with the little slip in the Tribe TV postgame and saying ODAC instead of CAA :).
Coulda been worse I guess. At least he didn't lapse all the way back to the IAC

RE: UNCW #2
UNCW is really feeling the loss of Keatts. They had Knight out and Cacok in and didn't adjust their offense at all. Not just at the end of the game, but also when Knight was getting his usual rests before media timeouts. Cacok was essentially Gustys in their offense tonight, almost entirely reliant on offensive rebounds to score. In the second half, especially the last 10 minutes or so, UNCW stopped hitting their open shots and our offense kept scoring. Also, we started giving up open jumpers in the lane instead of threes, which kept their offensive output down. Our best defense tonight was not turning it over and keeping pressure on them to keep up. When all 5 starters are going, our offense feels like an avalanche. UNCW's body language after some of our buckets showed how powerless they felt on defense.

If Coach Shaver was upset postgame, it was probably about Knight. I'll say that Nathan looked really down when he went to the bench, but still stayed engaged in rooting on his teammates. Pierce looked like he went over to give Knight some encouragement. It's good to see the guys pick each other up.

Yeah, I have not been impressed with McGrath, and think their program, unfortunately, may not find any traction under him in the next few years. Cacok deserves better.

I thought the team looked spent and beaten in the last four minutes of the first half. Pleasantly surprised (stunned, really) with how they played in the second half.

CofC has a really short turnaround with a 2:00 game in Williamsburg after what I am sure will be a long night of celebrating. We will definitely try to win; we would anyway but since ours is the first of the day, we will still be thinking of capturing third and maintaining some momentum.

We generally lay an egg on Senior Day; it would be nice to break that trend.

I don't know what people expect from a new coach when the team lost so much established/recruited talent over the course of a few months. He may not be on Keatts' level but it's not all him. Also, weren't we just saying that UNCW has played much better the 2nd half of the season?

Tony's postgame interviews are so refreshing. It must be a great experience to have him as your coach...brutally honest but cares for his guys like no other and always manages to put a bandage on his criticism by lifting the player back up. I love how he doesn't make excuses for bad behavior or poor play. Suck it up, buttercup.

RE: UNCW #2
The second half was great Tribe basketball, the best they've played in weeks. When this team defends,
gets fast breaks, makes the extra pass, and everyone contributes they are an outstanding team.
Thought Milon, Burchfield and Cohn were spectacular in the second half.

Just in time for CofC Saturday and the CAA Tourney. Let's hope they have permanently recovered their mojo!

Forgot to mention that the crowd was just a hundred or so below 4000...really good for a team that had lost two consecutively against a lesser CAA foe. And everyone was into the game and never gave up after the miserable first half finish.

Saturday might approach 4500-5000, Senior Day plus first-place CAA team on a 12-game roll at Kaplan
and a winter afternoon guarantees family turnouts with their kids. The latter one of the biggest reasons for surge in attendance.

Perhaps the ODAC slip was prescient. I see that another "&" school, #4 seed Emory & Henry won their 1st ODAC tournament (they've been trying since 1977) this weekend over the #2 seed. Let's duplicate that in Charleston!

GO TRIBE!

Go Wasps! Mrs. billymac is a grad of E&H.

(I only agreed to marry her because she also went to a school with an ampersand in the name.)
