Scoop is always there with great info.  Thanks, this makes sense.

Announcer said that the TSU coach played for McDermott when at Northern Iowa so was doing him a favor.

We tried that last year, but everyone just complained about Stetson.

2003 MU played Wake Forest during conference play.  Josh Howard was on that team, which went on to get a 2 seed.  Big time atmosphere for that game.

Didn't think I needed teal there. I was at that Wake game, great environment. Wade went over 1,000 points for his career that night, though by his standards had a very mediocre performance.

Well, sucks for Creighton but it looks like Mo Watson just blew out his knee. Contactless play and told McDermott that "Im done, I heard it pop."

Hate to see a quality player like Watson go down.
Winning is overrated. The only time it is really important is in surgery and war.

Creighton's equivalent of having DJames break his foot.   The diagnosis can determine the rest of their season.

No participation trophy for us today. And yes nova crushed us.

But atleast we played a game today. Hall is down almost 20 with 7 left in the first half.

Hall is getting destroyed. Not even competing. Third in a row for a team many consider NCAA quality (and, bizarrely, Dickey Simpkins thought they were title worthy) with a ton of experienced players.

There is a lecture that can be had about the conference and perspective but I'll spend my time watching the flames rise from this dumpster fire.

Dickie Simpkins thought that an Isaiah Whitehead - less Seton Hall team was title worthy? Dumb, but then again it's only Dickie Simpkins.

A masterclass in nonsense every game for Simpkins. He stated in second half of game in Milwaukee last week that if Hall were to compete with Nova and Creighton for the title, "like I think they are capable", then they have to hit their free throws down the stretch on the road.

I'm not angry to be seeing hall struggle. If we can get a bit of separation between 5th and 6th in the league I'm all for it. (Of course assuming we are 5th)

Sorry if I missed it but I didn't see it posted anywhere.

Myles Davis is leaving Xavier for undisclosed reasons.

And a link, for those interested

http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/18520637/myles-davis-says-done-xavier-musketeers-three-games-returning

Not sure this affects Xavier at all.  Really the mistake was bringing him back at all...that (especially with him then abruptly leaving) probably had a negative effect on team morale and cohesiveness.

"Guess i'll watch Butler beat up on DePaul for a few minutes before the game starts."
*flips on TV*
*feels much worse about our first half against Butler*

I can't imagine the angst their fan base must have these last two weeks

And Butler won't have the hometown refs to bail them out of this one like they did against us and Xavier.

Georgetown v X.  Both teams look beatable.
