  1. Glad my alma mater finally made it into my tournament...now go on and win the CBL championship!

  2. I remember when our participation in the CBI was announced, some questioned if the $40000 paid was money well spent on a lower tier tournament. Thank God the administration invested in this tourney. The extra playing time, practice time, home games with boosted attendance, the return of Duffy, and a chance to win a championship have been invaluable. Not to mention that we can expect boosted attendance next season due to the new winning ways and "fun" style of bball. Without the CBI, we would not have any of this and would have ended the season on a bummer.

  5. NCAA Tournament anytime over the CBI. I'd take a NIT Championship over a NCAA appearance though.

  6. Bunch of whining in here. I have had more contact from the school and AD this year than in any year from the past 20... And probably more than just the last 5 years combined. Quit the pessimism

  11. You mean when Clinton left with a republican congress? ...but the Obama administration tripling the dept gets a pass from you, right? At least I try and hold BOTH sides of the aisle accountable. I'm sick of it from all of them. That's all I'm saying. The GOP ran as conservatives, then acted like Libs. They'll pay for it in November, and they should. Rick

  13. 7 of 8 of those were by George "The Archer" King, who I brought to the Jacksonville State game the other night. He kept saying..."I sure would have loved to have played in an offense like this". Rick

  14. I think Gonzaga realizes that playing in a better league will help them more down the road when it comes to getting at-large bids. The screw job St. Mary’s has gotten twice as an at-large team has really been eye-opening to just how weak the rest of the WCC is perceived to be. Unless BYU has a decent team, nobody else gets much respect or attention.

  18. Positives.... O-line looks to be improved. I am not as concerned about them as I was at this time last season. Fine looks healthy and sharp. He has good chemistry with the receivers. I think we can continue to throw on most teams. Negatives... Our defense continues to worry me. When starters were on the field and everyone was serious, our D couldn't make plays. Tackling looked bad on too many plays. The secondary seems the weakest part of our defense...again. I don't believe we have a running back in on our team that can replace Wilson. In all honesty, I don't believe the platoon philosophy will be able to replace Wilson's production either. Our kicking game needs to get much better. We are probably still waiting for some late transfers and we have a long time before next season, so I'm not worried yet.

  20. That's the thing, he's going to have to better shooting the ball from 18 feet and in. His FTs will need work as well. But athletically kid is pretty gifted.

  21. I refuse to be cocky about this. I know they couldn't keep up with the speed/shooting we've demonstrated thus far, I just worry that at some point we'll get gassed and/or shooting simmers down. Hope it's not next week.

  22. This is very true. How many of you: Have friends and family that are certain you are the biggest Mean Green fan EVER Find it as almost a novelty that you follow the team "You have season tickets?!" "You go to Every game??!" Ask you about the team with almost a smirk on their face

  23. Until very, very recently, Athletics has been treated with disdain by the BOR and administration. He faculty hated its existence, mostly, so it easily spread to The student body/alumni. And the previous AD was lazy as hell, but kept his job for 15 years because he stayed in his meager budget every year and never complained about the lack of funding. Everything was all about cost...known costs, not opportunity costs. Thankfully, it appears that this line of thinking is finally changing at the top, so it will filter down accordingly.

  24. Don't like the early start to Spring ball, but it gets me pumped nevertheless. I was not able to attend unfortunately. Out of town. Can someone give a little more in depth analysis of today...No offense @Brett Vito. #GMG

  31. Part of me is surprised, just because the WCC hasn't seemed to really hold Gonzaga back. They've made four straight Sweet 16s and played in the National Title game last year. However, the MWC is generally a stronger league.

  35. Mike Law was out due to injury as was Jaelen Darden. Torrey did look good but I thought all the RBs showed a little something. Hosley had some nice runs as did the kid from SFA.

  41. The USF-Campbell score (I kinda wanted to play a school that had a Camel as a mascot. And what is a Don ? ) indicates that these teams were closely matched. While I have heard of San Francisco, I don't think I really was aware of USF. Campbell, Mercer, Jacksonville State, etc are all teams that don't seem to get a lot of press, at least in this part of the world. I think North Texas is easily the class of the College Basketball Invitational tourney. I can't find the attendance stat for last night's game. I would assume the Thursday night attendance would be about the same we would expect on Monday night in San Francisco. Where, by the way, little cable cars climb half way to the star.

  43. When Baylor gets left behind, it will be well-deserved. They probably were always going to be left behind, but the image of their institution valuing wins over values, while being a Baptist school, is just sickening. As a reminder, this is a place that has allowed: A coverup of a murdered basketball player by another basketball player, attempting to make dead player a drug dealer, all to coverup players being paid by the coach... Their best basketball player, LaceDarius Dunn, punch his girlfriend in the face and breaking her jaw, only to suspend him for a few OOC games against absolute spares... Criminals being brought in all to win games because they were so bad for so long... Having local media/authorities bury ANY leads about the rapes/violence occurring on campus...to the point that Texas Monthly uncovered everything (point not lost that this publication is a UT rag and Baylor was at the top of the conference when this occurred)

  44. I'd rather see several other projects completed before a new b-ball arena though. Tennis still needs a Center court, upgrades at ALL facilities on the old Liberty campus. Upgrades to the Athletics Center (especially the weightroom & lockerroom). Heck, I'd rather see baseball started up before a new b-ball arena.

  45. Bullshit. There is no denying that Baylor has a special version of such problem. They just need to be shut down. I mean, not just the athletics; the whole place.

  46. Life without Wilson Everyone knew redshirt sophomore running back Nic Smith would be cast as the primary back heading into this spring. He did not get many snaps on Saturday, finishing with 13 yards on two carries. His fellow backs, meanwhile, combined for 3.98 yards per carry and were contained for the majority of the game. Losing Jeffery Wilson obviously changes the complexion of the offense, but the three backs in Smith and sophomores DeAndre Torrey and Evan Johnson looked able to provide the necessary depth for this offense in the backfield even if they are missing the home run hitting of Wilson. Defense closing the gap After getting lit up on three of the first four drives of the game for huge touchdowns, the defense settled in and shut down the offense, not allowing a score for eight straight possessions. Every quarterback had a shot at them in those possessions, but the ability of sophomore safety Tyreke Davis along with the seasoned defensive line of juniors LaDarius Hamilton and Ulaiasi Tauaalo and senior Roderick Young made for a lengthy stand. Last season the defense was the talking point when it came to deficiencies of that team, this could be the start of closing the gap for defensive coordinator Troy Reffett and company.
