Re: 2024 OVC Tournament

TennTech proved to be a very talented opponent.  I think we did a good job defensively most of the game but we lost the 3 point shooters and they hit their shots.  Was a very tough assignment with their offense and 3/4 court pressure.  I really thought we did a nice job with our spacing in the 1st h...

Re: vs UT Martin (2/10/24)

I would agree, still plenty of games left and as Seal Hall has stated.  Freethrows are basically mechanical repetition and confidence.  Flex at the shoulder, flex at the elbow, extend at the wrist, pointer finger in the middle of the ball, legs bent a bit,  3 dribbles, find the from of the rim with ...

Re: vs Tennessee State

For years I have had the opportunity to attend a basketball game at Mackey Arena.  And for years I have walked away with tunes such as Frankenstein and the Horse, repeating them over and over.  Its a Big 10 show and thats what it is, a "show!"  And I love the show.  My wife and I were plan...

Re: vs Tennessee State

This game was absolutely hard to watch.  I am with you Rocki...........So lets take an entire practice and go 5 on 7, full court, no dribble.  Let's work on recognizing when to hold them and when to take it to the rack once you break the press.  We missed so so so many bunnies and inside shots.  And...

Re: Horizon League

Bad bad day for WIU.  I feel like we got caught with our pants down.  We were left behind along with a couple other schools which left the Mid Con trapped in a leaky boat.  I have no idea why Valpo stayed on for a while before going on to the Horizon too and the MVC.  When the Mid Con's head quarter...

Re: vs Southeast Missouri

SEMO ran a 1/3/1 half court trap all night.  You have to be able to knock down the 3's if you are going to challenge this.   I don't really think the ladies ever really reversed the ball which has to happen in order to get the defense on its heels.  In my former life I was forced to address this typ...

Re: Transfers

Just wondering, has the two word sentence, "be patient" disappeared from Leathernecknation message board.  And it seems that we move from one potential disaster from Head Coach hiring, to assistant Coach hiring, to current players and their move or lack of a move to the portal.  Yes, I kno...

Re: Head Coaching Search

Yes, I think that the on campus visits will be early next week.  How many?  I would say 3 for sure.  We should have more solid information by this weekend.  jc ;)

Re: Student government Admin forum

So does anybody have any observations regarding the Student Government/Admin. forum?  I think that Mossman is definitely the man for the Provost job!   ;)
