Great pic and a great season building win. That said somebody fill us in on Morgan State. I/we are planning to go and I want to know what to expect. It would be nice to have a game where we are not sitting on the edge of our seat until the end. So, what say you basketball folks?

They are terrible. Bottom third of NCAA. They play fast. They have 1 guy averaging double figures (exactly 10 points). They have no size. Thats all I got.

They are 0-5 on the road. Their best performance on the road was a 7 pt loss to George Mason.

Jeff was pleading for fans to show for this one. He knows its holiday time and time is precious...but these guys are on a tear and deserve fans in the building (especially with students on break). If you can get out to the game, show up!!!

The Ted is gonna be asleep. No student section. If you are going, wear your energy pants.

I would like to see some extended time with Reece and Brill this game.

We are going to beat the brakes off them. Hopefully we will get an opportunity to let Ahmad sit and rest before we have to play Marshall and WKU. I wonder if Reece will see any time with Robinson going down. We can use this game as a building block for Marshall and WKU.

Any official word on what's wrong with Robinson? It looked like cramps, but no follow up on TV.

Pulled hamstring

I'm no doctor, and its been several weeks since my last stay at a Holiday Inn Express, but it looked to me like beginning of a hamstring pull (which I seem to recall was a problem earlier this season).

He had the good sense to stop as soon as he felt it, so that it wouldn't become a tear. If it is a minor pull, it should be healed in ten days' time.

Before that happened, I did like seeing the more muscular play out of him. (Something Golden clearly did not enjoy, but very much deserved.)

Thats because the Richmond broadcast was the worst I have ever seen. Complete bias to the point where they wouldnt even show replays of ODU and didnt even mention our players except Stith down the stretch. Basically it was a love fest with Golden the whole game. No other players even mattered to them. It was a terrible way to watch a game.

Yeah, JJ said it was a hamstring issue in the post game.

Has anyone else noticed how Carver is starting to handle the ball and drive more to the rim in the past few games? There's a small part of me that thinks he's gonna figure something out and score some points this game. I dunno.

Can't say it was the worst ever, but it was an infuriating broadcast to watch/listen to. The announcers reminded me of a couple of old guys sitting on a park bench discussing how their pigeons were so much better than the ones from the park on the other side of town.

If the broadcast t.v./radio broadcasts weren't so mistimed, I would have happily turned off the audio and listened to Ted/Dave instead.

Reinjured his hammy, probably not play against MSU, might be ready in 2 weeks for Marshall

Thanks. Tough though.

@punk and I had a recent game synced up perfectly with the radio feed.

All you have to do is use the TuneIn app on your mobile. It allows you to pause the broadcast. So, if the radio call is ahead of your TV, just pause the app and time it up. If the TV is ahead, pause the TV (assuming you have a DVR) and sync it up. Not very hard and can make a more enjoyable experience.

Not sure I would call it the worst. We have dealt with a lot worse on CUSAtv. FIU comes to mind.

And of course it was biased, it was URs broadcast team airing the game.
