Marshall will be a very difficult out. They have arguably the number 1 or number 2 player in the conference with Taevion Kinsey. He has scored 20 or more points 11 times this season.

Sure is nice to have a bye. We haven’t had one of those in 5 years.

Hoping it’s not the 9pm slot. Takes patience to wait that long after watching the previous 3 games that day.

If we win our first game we likely get WKU. If we win the tournament we'll have earned it.

I could easily see us getting UTSA again also, again IF we win our first game. If Jackson and Wallace get hot, they can beat anybody.

Yeah, I absolutely hate that this will be our first opponent.(I assume). It’s a tough path for us, but once we get down to the top six teams of so, it’s a crap shoot this year.

Amen. Hard to believe there were people on BT that actually supported the previous guy after his second season. They probably still think he's a good coach, just unlucky or some such bull****.

Sometimes I wondered if they knew they were trying to polish a turd or if they just liked the smell.

Some people seem to struggle with the difference between a good guy and a good basketball coach.

I'm still baffled the conference keeps playing 2 games in the same time slot. Would it be better to play the women on one court and men on the other court at the same time? I just hope the UAB games end up being the Stadium telecast.

Searching for TV involving UAB basketball on Thursday. I know the game is available streaming on STADIUM. UAB plays on Court B.

The Western Kentucky game Thursday in same time slot on Court A will be televised on Charter Cable Channel 193.

I plan to call WABM Channel 68 and UAB athletic department this morning to see if they will carry the UAB game live on Thursday? If anyone hears something please let us know.

Andrea Souder from WABM channel 68 said the UAB game on Thursday will not be carried by Channel 68 in Birmingham.

Hard to believe we are still complaining about the previous coach.
