Now no one can say we were just lucky.

Amazing how this worked out for Xavier...

XU catches huge break

lol

[rocket surgeon]

well, it'll be interesting to see how effective he will be.  they don't list any more centers on their roster.  only a couple of 6'9" freshmen forwards and a 6'8" senior forward.  will a less than 100% stainbrook be the best they have in the middle.  time to feed davante-give it to the big fella and find out

[wardle2wade]

Had wondered if X would do this, didn't think they actually would.  It seemed wayyy early in the week for them to announce he was officially out.

[ChicosBailBonds]

XU is dumb to do this in my opinion.  They had a built in excuse if they lost.

Strap it on.  Go Warriors

[HelixAir6]

Nice way for Mack to introduce himself to the BE tourney... That's some BS gamesmanship... Why announce he is out if there is any chance he would play? For reasons the FBI should investigate or... Because he is a dbag...

[Eldon]

ESPN540 just said he was out

To quote Herm Edwards, "you play to win the game."  Xavier is on the bubble and they might need that win to get in.  If he is healthy enough to play you play.  People would probably say how stupid/unlucky X was if he didn't play and they missed the tournament.

With or without Stainbrook watch out for Justin Martin, the kid is a stud.  Has had two very good games against us.  If we stop him we win, IMO.

[Wojo'sMojo]

Who cares. If we expect to win the BET we will have to go through better players than Stainbrook at some point.

A-10 move by X.  Feed the Ox, pummel him with 290 lbs and make him wish he didn't play.

[Pakuni]

I thought he was great in 'True Detective.'

Nicely done.  Glad I didn't have to see him make flowers.

[MUfan12]

MU was hypnotized by his bosoms.

Very well done, Pakuni and jesmu.

[Avenue Commons]

I thought Stainbrook was the difference last night. He's a pretty good player on a very good Xavier squad.

bencat called it-marten-19 points, 3/6 from 3 pt. land, 5/10 fgm overall and 6/6 free throws, zero turnovers
steinbrook was just staying fresh or getting back in shape for up coming game(s)=no real factor

[chapman]

Hodor? 

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Hodor? 

HODOR! HODOR! HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR!

[ZiggysFryBoy]

Hodor? 

Winner.
