If we win this, Freeman saved the game in the last 3 minutes with GIANT boards when we needed it.

Freeman sort of gets screwed. He is not on the all freshman team because he is a soph. BUT He played all of 5 minutes last season, he really is a freshman. AND he is the best defensive player in the MAC. By the numbers! Should have been all conference.

Freeman makes all defensive team and not even an HM for all conference? Strange.

Back in the day the Lone Stars used to give the pledges nicotine poisoning. Lucky no one died.

Did Miami and OU play this week?

You are correct. I was thinking (in error) that we played BG on Tuesday. If it was US, Buffalo would also be a cancel.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- “The Miami University at University of Akron and Ohio University at Bowling Green State University men's basketball games on Friday, March 5 have been canceled due to COVID-19 concerns. The games will not be rescheduled.” Sounds like someone at BG tested positive. That means we are all contacts in quarantine and OU can not play because the BG team are all contacts. No Cleveland for us or BG if that is correct. Lets see, game was Tuesday, 10 days with no symptoms = Friday. So maybe they can tweak the schedule to get everyone in.

Oh HELL! If it is us, no Cleveland.

Another interesting stat: Freeman is THIRD in the entire COUNTRY in rebounds per 40 minutes played!

AND....... Overnight We now have the 7th leading scorer The 40th leading rebounder The 41st leading shot blocker IN ALL OF D1

We still have the best player in the MAC so we certainly have a fighters chance in Cleveland. The offense has just been too inconsistent to make me to think we can rely solely on it to win 3 straight games. We need to get back to playing defense like we were in January. ACTUALLY: We have the 10th leading scorer in the COUNTRY We have the 46th leading rebounder in the COUNTRY We have the 47th leading shot blocker in the COUNTRY And if The Walk On had 11 more shot attempts he would be the #1 percentage shooter in the COUNTRY (and all his stats are for just about the lowest MPG of any of the leaders). And that does not include the Buffalo game, which may move both up a bit in the standings. Now if only the other three guys would contribute.

So The Walk On had 11 points, 12 boards, THREE blocks and a steal. Who wants a job scouting the Rec Center next September?

Is there a video of the backwards dunk by Freeman? I heard it on the radio, would like to see it.

No one was home. That is the problem

The only person on the floor not getting paid to play gets a double double! Where are all the paid players hiding? How can The Walk On be the second leading scorer AGAIN? BTW if you think this kid is not for real, that's 12 boards against a team that is a monster on the boards. Blocked shots are not posted yet, he had a few.

2 point loss is not really a collapse. They kept it interesting.

Also lead the team in steals:

All I know is that The Walk On was once again our second leading scorer, leading rebounder and leading shot blocker. (AND I LOVE HIM FOR IT). Meanwhile, everyone else got recruited and a hoops scholarship. Something is wrong with this picture.

Common sense

We have ZERO chance at him. Not even on the radar at all.

Replacement for LCJ?

A person is considered contagious in the 48 hours before they develop symptoms. A contact of a contact is not a contact. So, if someone on the team was EXPOSED to someone in the last few days, that should not affect us. OTOH if someone on the team became symptomatic yesterday or today, our entire team could be in 10 day quarantine.

Buffalo is sloppy and out of control. Too many unforced errors.

Toledo may be in trouble. Down 4 with 6 fouls vs 2 for Buffalo.

You are only as good as your next mistake. Maybe he would have dropped 6 more and grabbed 8 more in another 17 minutes
