MINNIE. IS. BACK!

I'm excited for the Rutgers game... :)

Much like the end of last season...when Elijah is good, we are good. Dominant performance from him on both ends. This is what we were expecting as fans.

Not to be forgotten, JT back to a usual JT performance. 14 and 14 and 6/10 from the field.

1. Dribble at half court.
2. Throw ball toward hoop. Left side for Toure, Right side for Thompson.
3. [ESPN jingle]

And we are still awful when we try to milk the clock.

Interesting. Did you live out in Boston at all? I did for all while, and all 3 of my kids were born out there. Loved it. But had to move back to MI- the consultation being I get to attend EMU basketball games.

Agreed. He’s also been phenomenal defensively. Plays the passing lanes so well.

Yeah, I loved his block of a previously wide open 3 pointer later in the second half!!

Don’t get too optimistic, Sunshine. Rutgers beat Drexel by 29. EMU beat them by only 4. Although the laws of transitivity rarely hold, Monday at Rutgers is still a likely loss. Particularly as EMU has to hit the road so soon after playing a game (radio guys said they are heading out sunday morning.).

Elijah Minnie stat line:
28 points on 10/17 shooting (5/9 from 3)
4 ass (though 3 turnovers)
3 steals
1 block
4 rebounds

Does anybody know the story behind Davison Stephens? He seems too solid to be a walk-on? And more so, why would a walk-on go out of state and pay the higher tuition?

Was at game with Super Turned on the jets in the second half Nice mix of different lineups I see Macdoo moving in as a starter Nice to see Minnie get on track

Good call 79. Was just about to ask how long before McAdoo is starting. Parris played 9 minutes today because McAdoo was playing too well to sit. Kid has such a sweet shot, and he’s pretty good defensively too.

Sam and Jim I agree that McAdoo presents a better option in the 2 spot right now, he is a very good shooter. At Duke, however, he coughed up the ball a lot and needs to work on that. Parris and Ellison are our point guards next year.

Did you guys see how Murphy handled Toure when he got that charging call? Multiple f bombs and telling him "don't talk to me, I told you not to dribble".

EMU offers in state tuition to everyone.

t

YES. Gave him the business. Was it me or did the gym get a bit quieter?

That’s Murphy’s MO. He is the complete opposite of CC.

No Tom it was not you. After the first F bomb I think the crowd was stunned and went quiet. I liked that Murphy was engaged and demonstrative unlike in the past where he simply pulled guys and gave them the stink eye. Unfortunately the Convo is not a loud atmosphere and he needs to use normal language.
