Re: Xavier Game Thread

Congrats to Mayo. Wished he could have broke it at home but was to great to see him break it on national TV. Great exposure for him. Defense was terrabile tonight. Maybe the worst all season. They forced some turnovers but as I am typing this, X is shooting 75 percent with just six minutes left. Ga...

Xavier Game Thread

Boy, you gotta love the way these guys are playing in this first half. Much tougher defense than against KState or UT earlier this year. They are turning over the Muskies. The press is effective. You can see them playing better half court D each game. If they could only hit some shots.... Sent from ...

Re: Northern Kentucky

It really comes down to coaching and not just the head guy. The scouting report on NKU was outstanding. The full court pressure did create turnovers. EKU shoots 38%, 25% from 3 point range, gets out-rebounded by 3 and out-assisted and wins? One big difference is free throws. We shot 32 to their 16 a...

Re: High Point

This was a great win. This guy can coach. He made the adjustment at halftime to go with a better defensive alignment and it paid off. I just can’t believe this team is this bad at shooting! I would think the farther we get into the season, the shooting will improve as players settle into roles and t...

Re: Recruiting

I'll give AWH this much...he's certainly been proactive in terms of filling out the roster. I'm not saying this kid instantly makes up for the loss of Dish by any means, but I still like our team headed into next season if we stay even mostly healthy. You know 05, I've thought the same thing. Recru...

Re: Dishman tweets he is leaving

Man this is disappointing. He was aggressive in going to the basket on offense and defense. Raw, but improving with each game.
Someone's going to get a solid team player.

Re: Recruiting

How many scholarships are left? Looks like we need some guards, although I'm thrilled with the big men Coach Hamilton is signing. We haven't had this much depth up front in a long time!

Re: Coach Hamilton intro press conference

I already like this guy better than McHale.
He's got a better background, in my view, and demonstrates a better command of what needs to be done at a school like eku.
I hope his connections in the prep world translate into good recruits!
