Re: Where do we go from here?

As CBB has become more boom and bust we are probably one of the bigger busts in recent memory. I don't see what is to be gained by firing Drew now, but I also don't really see the point in delaying the inevitable. I don't think there is any result possible in the next 10 or so weeks that would make ...

Re: Northern Illinois Preview and Game Thread -- 11/21/2025

I don’t really give a shit what we run or who we recruited! It doesn’t take talent or a next level scheme to box out. I thought drew was the culture hire? Where’s the culture?! Drew has had success that can not be attributed to porter or porters recruits. That makes this season all the more ...

Re: Northern Illinois Preview and Game Thread -- 11/21/2025

More Nic Anderson less Deywilk Tavarez please. The 2022-23 season sucked but at least we developed core players who became a part of successful seasons in 2023-24 and 2024-25. What is the point of giving minutes to guys who won’t do the little things and also won’t be here in the near future? This ...

Re: Wichita State Preview and Game Thread -- 11/13/2025

I also miss the emphasis on defense. It's a lot easier to pull for a mediocre team that takes pride in its defense than a mediocre team that is doing whatever it is we're doing on that end. I'm not sure you can say there is a "culture" anymore if gutsy defensive efforts are not a cornerstone of this ...

Re: Wichita State Preview and Game Thread -- 11/13/2025

Things I'd like to see:

-Strong start. We cannot be digging ourselves out of a hole every single game.

-Continued offensive aggression from Rubin. He needs to continue to go to the hoop.

-Fewer 3's. Focus on working the ball and attacking the basket rather than chucking up 3's.

-Moore stepping ...

Re: Mercyhurst Preview and Game Thread -- 11/6/2025

Losing Des, JD, and JQ seems to have taken a toll. We struggled last year in the non conference but that was with a bevy of key players injured. I know Amos is out but that should not excuse a double digit home loss to a school that was d2 recently. We may just not be that good.

Re: SPEED TRAPS !!!/and local stuff/

I wonder if Loyola ever regrets coming down on Hamilton's. Everything that has come after seems to have been a mess.

Re: Portal Transfer 2025

Seems like a great addition. Glad we'll have some more shooting on the team.

Re: Portal Transfer 2025

I think they view Amos as a stretch 4 next to Miles. We should consider him a "shooter" for all intents and purposes.
He's a career 28% 3pt shooter
Where’d that number come from? He’s a career 33.7% shooter but in his breakout season with NIU where he got 30mpg he shot 38.5% on 104 attempts ...
