Any ideas on the starting 5. The last I heard was Myers and Knox were the only locks

I might be wrong but I think this is the first year in a very long time in which our roster does NOT have a single player who started their college career in Macomb. Welcome to the transfer portal.
Embrace the pace of the race.

Jr Kiyron Powell transferred from Southern Indiana, where he played in 28 games, averaging 15.8 minutes per game last year including 17 minutes (6 points and 2 rebounds) at USI in January, then 5 minutes (5 points and 1 rebound) against us in Macomb in late February.
Jr. Massal Diouf transferred from UT-San Antonio, who we played to open the season last year. Diouf had 6 minutes and 1 rebound in that game.

Will there be a game? BJ and everyone being evacuated now. I tuned in late. Not sure what the reason is.
Update: apparently a fire alarm went off. Players still on court warming up.

Did they preempt the basketball stream with women's soccer?
