19 turnovers?

That wont win in the conference tournament let alone the NCAA tournament.

The box score shows Ben had 7 of the 19 turnovers. I didn't see the game but RamblerGuy posted that Porter experimented with Clay playing off the ball some with Ben at the point. This could have been why the turnover number was so high. Just guessing, but maybe Porter was trying to help Clay get his shots without working so hard for them.

IS TEAM IS A WINNER !! Purely and simply a winner I must say that i preached it all year long--No hand wringing --nothing !!! Tgey hace won all year doing the same thing--They have worn teams down game after game
It truly was neat seeing PORTER with that huge smile on his face at the end !!

Now let us keep going !!!

GO GET thrm RAMBLERS !!!

Defense down the stretch was pretty impressive...also around the 12 minute to 10 minute period in 2nd half we started to create a little space...and I was watching Satterwhite and he was playing some great defense.....I think Porter is getting through to him....
Not our best performance but they seem so unflappable .......I think they have beaten a lot of teams with better talent...but these guys play basketball.........GREAT WIN....Hope it is packed on Saturday.

With the Ramblers now the putative regular season conference champs, watch JCT brazenly change his tune and start advocating for implementing the old Horizon League double bye playoff system at Arch Madness.

The man has absolutely no principles except naked self interest! I respect that.

NOPE SWELLA !! JCT would NEVER want even a hint of BUTLER stench to descend upon him --Gui;t by association you know.
