If we can avoid a 10 minute slump, we should be able to take these guys.

If he’s anything like me warming up on the driving range for a round of golf, we’re screwed.

That’s one way to stop the drought. Just slam it home multiple times.

#15 from Troy could be an easy target to draw a tech. He’s mad and talking trash with CJ and Dodd. Also, Beaubrun dunk may have ignited a fire. Glad to get that mo’ going into half

I don’t know what offensive set we run but it’s unique . Countless trips down the court and not one pass inside the arc.

Sometimes we have 3 or 4 guys near half court 15 seconds in

Probably easier to list the years we haven’t said that.

Poor decision making consistently, and moreso at critical times. Couple that with their three point shooting, recipe for defeat. Troy has a better basketball team at this point. Not much better but enough to get a solid win in our court.

We’re just good enough to hang with mediocre teams but not good enough to beat mediocre teams.

Furthering my depression is the thought that under the pre pay for play portal rules , we would have four or five returning players that we lost , and would have won by twenty to push our record to 12-1.
