App State men's basketball is back in action in the Charleston Classic on Thursday against Purdue. The Boilermakers are ranked #23 currently. If our guys cut down on the turnovers that they had at Alabama (22) they will have a good shot at this one I think. ESPN is giving Purdue a 79% win percentage on their matchup predictor. The game is being carried on ESPN2. Go APP!!

We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

I’m not too familiar with Purdue beyond what I saw in NCAA tournament last year. Hoping that we can continue to execute offensively but do a better job on turnover margin,defensive rebounding, and free throws. If any one of those had gone our way we’d likeky have walked away a winner on Sunday. This team is talented.

33-22 at the half. The Northeastern zone is causing lots of problems for Bama.

I would have loved to have gotten Bama on a neutral court.

Not a good start for App on the ESPN2 today. Can this TV camera get any farther away? Are they set up on the Ravenel Bridge in Charleston?

Not a good look so far on natl tv. We don’t even appear to be looking to score sometimes. The crisp passes, wide open shots, and lock down defense from Purdue makes them look like they’re playing against guys who are standing still. Hoping for adjustments.

Often turnovers that set the other team up for easy baskets too. Our best scorers sometimes try to do too much and end up destroying momentum.

36-21 Purdue with 4:44 to go in the half. These turnovers are ridiculous. We do not value the ball nearly enough!
