Starting this weekly thread a little late. I like to deny that games like Duke, TCU, and Kansas never happen for us or other mid-majors.

Anyway, the team will be on the road again... Too much travel in a short period of time for my liking. N. Carolina, New Jersey, Texas, and Mass.

Don't know if there will be any television. Perhaps for DirecTv subscribers.

I hope we find a starting five that clicks especially defensively and soon

Common opponent in Boston University, we won 80-62, NESTern lost 74-77.

What are these weird "RV Alabama" and "RV Davidson" teams that Northeastern played? Looks like they beat Alabama.

This is bound to be a unique game for Ty Groce. This is the school he originally went to, before the anxiety and depression issues had him hitting rock bottom. I certainly would not have scheduled it.

This will either be a good day for him or a bad day. I wish Ty the best, depression sucks and hits a lot of us.

Whats going on with Minnie? Why didnt he play @ TCU?

I hope he's not caught in the Darrell Lampley / Raven Lee vortex of coach disapproval.

Murphy said it was a pinkie finger, but also indicated in an interview that he thought some guys got caught up in the preseason watch list hype, meaning Minnie and JTIV. I didn't think he need to make such a public comment.

NU played in the Charleston Classic in South Carolina. The beat Alabama, before losing to Va Tech and Davidson. NU then played at Davidson in a scheduled game a week later.

Add Micheal Talley in that vortex. It sucks the energy out of a team.

Sounds like a hyperextension. I would think that would be a common injury for bball players.

I think I hyperextended a pinky later it was diagnosed as a detached ligament at the lower knuckle.
