Bye Week - No FB or MBB
Lest I be wrong, this is finals week and the once-defeated MBB team gets time off to rest and study.
The big story is whether or not the 2019 FB season is on total bye (aka season over.)
Of course, Murphy can head over to the Convo to watch Lincoln's Bates.
C.C. and his staff are getting ready for early signing period. http://www.nationalletter.org/signingDates/index.html
So for us, the seasons never end...

Tomorrow night should be HUGE at the Convo! I’m leaving work at 3pm to make sure I can get in and get the seat I want.

This is the 'Emoni Bates Show' you speak?
This should be fun for a lot of reasons. Will Murphy be in attendance? Other EMU players come 'take a look'?
BTW, I heard on the radio that Groce and Bates are apparently friends. They worked out together when Groce transferred back from Northeastern.

This article sheds a lot of light on the Ty Groce/Emoni Bates relationship. You have to get about halfway through it before Emoni enters, but it adds a lot of clarity. https://www.mlive.com/eagles/2017/05/bat...lanti.html

Lot of positive takeaways from that article.
One of the great things about living in the times that we do is the great advances in pharmacology. Psychopharmacology has made great strides in recent times.
And, again, one can see the close relationship between Emoni Bates, his father and the EMU and Ypsilanti community.

His Father is an EMU alum.
People seem to think Emoni to EMU would be impossible.
He could already choose to go play HS basketball anywhere in the US, but he’s choosing to stay right here in Ypsilanti to play for Lincoln.
If the rules for the NBA don’t change, I would not be at all surprised to see him stay right here and further his legacy in Ypsilanti at EMU.

There will be a lot of D1 prospects playing tonight. Besides Emoni, Lincoln has about 3 others. River Rouge has a lot of talent too.
I'm sure Murphy will be there.

I am not one of them (who think that the chances of him going to EMU is less than the chance of the Detroit Tigers winning the 2020 World Series).
As I've suggested before this has the potential to be the parallel of LeBron James and Akron.
Many swear that LeBron would have gone to Akron had he not been able to go directly to the NBA.
LeBron and Emoni were/are two young superior athletes with very strong ties to their communities.
And, yet another pivot, another reason to be happy for the success of this year's MBB team is that it ensures Murphy's employment with EMU. Do not want a program losing and in turmoil. If EMU has a chance to come to EMU Murphy will be part of that story.
