Is ETSU the highest rated team weve beat? Chattanooga is the second highest rated team weve played, and we lost. Our resume isnt getting us anywhere.

I’d assume. Chattanooga has 3 losses since we played them.

Just looked it up.
Chatt is 125 in NET
Charlotte 159
ETSU 161

It appears those were the numbers coming into today.
we reached 64

AK mic'ed up during the game was awesome. It was a cool dynamic to hear him coaching live while simultaneously answering interview questions.

Its so nice to have a real coach. I consider this year a throwaway so next year will be the real test. F*** Stansbury.

We play who’s on the court. Almost all of our OOC schedule was made before UAB even had an opening for a HC. And you know we have to overcome CUSA ratings. Expect a full 180 next season.

Where does the 37 points allowed rank in our all time defense performances? That is phenomenal, even if the team were playing isn’t very good.

I really hope we can get Quan Jackson back later in the season. This team could make some noise.

It wasn't said as a criticism, just a fact. Our schedule obviously would have been better sans covid.

Our schedule is what it is this year. It sucks but it’s not AK’s fault. Even if he did have full control over the schedule, I would’ve been scared to be super aggressive in year one with essentially a brand new team. Basically - I’m ok with the schedule this year, but of course it needs to be better in the future.

We moved up to 48 in the NET rankings after yesterday’s win. Pretty impressive.

Game still listed to be on 100.5.

AU is on there now, early 2nd half

Nevermind, switched over
