Even a loss keeps us at 4, but lets not go there.   ;)

Re: OVC Tournament Projections

How the hell do you buy tickets to the tournament.  Ford Center does not even show it on their event page.  Every session on the ticketmaster site tell me "No seats available".  Morehead St is the only conference team athletic site that had a page for buying tickets when I looked a week o...

Re: President Huang stepping down

Running the U in Macomb and solving all the problems reminds me of tackling a bushel of black walnuts: 1) Messy and lengthy process - you can't rush it (some initial air drying always required) 2) The shells are stubborn things - various tools and techniques might be needed to ultimately crack them....

Re: vs Eastern Illinois

Correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like the 2012-13 team was the last team to win 20 games. They are sitting at 19 wins right now and not to jinx them but I think they will get at least one more win this season to reach the 20 win plateau. I kinda wish they were still in the Summit this year to s...

Re: OVC Tournament Projections

It will be interesting to see how the fan attendance shapes up for each school this year  No more Murray St or Belmont around.  I am sure they travelled pretty good given their successes in getting to the Big Dance.  My two cents but if Southern Indiana shows up with 3K+ fans, they might be tough to...

Re: vs Southern Indiana

Attendance is confusing at best.  Does not one ticket get you into both games now?  So paid attendance is meaningless.   I will go out on a limb and say the 80-20 rule applies here.  That is, only 20 percent of the attendees do both games from tip to final buzzer.  The other 80 just do one game or n...

I would not want to play these guys in our opening game of tournament in Evansville (their own backyard) but there is a good chance that will happen.

Re: vs Southern Indiana

They were good and we were almost as good today. Having clinched things, they were playing loose and easy.  We tightened up a little in the closing minutes.  They clamped down on McCowan when it counted.  How often does a player have an incredible game scoring the ball in a losing effort?  I would b...
