Wow. Good for him. Do we know if Housewright will be calling the plays? His offense at Montana State was electric.

"Punk" is their identity. They just don't have any students dating any players with talent this year (i.e. InSincere).

What happened to Fessler?

Out of likes, but this needs to happen.

The little bit I could listen, the announcers were wearing their emotions on their sleeves. The absolute dejection when we went on our 3-straight-3s run to take the lead while Freeman was grabbing every board in sight - priceless. It got worse after Freeman got his 4th foul, and they went underneath at Enrique but the refs didn't call anything. The announcers were beside themselves. Homerism is an art form. You have to toe the line of being a fan and calling a game that doesn't make the opponent's fans listening want to Van Gogh their ears. The Balls announcers made me want to do the latter. Really poor basketball IQ showing from the Muncie crowd.

This one may have been intentional, but that doesn't explain every other time he has done it. I'm not sure I've actually seen him stay behind the line this season.

Can we get Anquan Boldin Sr. to do the halftime show? Just wheel out a Jugs Machine see the fastest ball he can catch, how many 1 handed catches he can make, etc. We have Joe Flacco now so he should feel connected to NEO.

Not sure if it was mentioned in this thread, but we rank 28th in the country for DI experience. Balls ranked something like 260th or 270th. We saw the difference in the result. This team isn't flashy. They don't have that guard that lights up the scoreboard. But man, they're blue collar winners. We fold like a cheap lawn chair in a couple of the more recent seasons, despite having similar personnel. Dawson and Tribble were humongous down the stretch. My only gripe: Freeman has to learn how to stay behind the damn out of bounds like when the opponent is inbounding the ball.

As much as I hate Kowal-choke, nobody is higher than PCCC on my loathe list. I wonder if Pinky's face changes shades of pink/red depending on the temperature of his seat.

About 5 of those for Balls came on one possession where our bigs refused to leave their boxouts on the perimeter.

Ridiculous officiating, but this is the MAC. Garbage. Tribble 's ball-handling is noticeably better this year. Dawson has put together a few nice games here.

He brings intangibles that will more than make up for his "lack of recent experience". Think of the WRs that came through while he was here - Hixon, Arthur, Bowser. Akron football always competed under his tutelage. As previously mentioned, he gets Akron football. Fully expect him to be a huge positive in the locker room and on the sideline.

YEEESSSSSSSS!!!!!! WELCOME BACK JD! Can we get Hixon to mentor?

Any insight on his potential impact?

The refs can't take Freeman out of this game.

For those who don't know, JMU is currently undefeated at 14-0 and ranked #19. If we continue to win, we should get another crack at a Q1 win.

Ignore the quote. Phone won't remove it. This is an impressive, IMPRESSIVE performance. BG is a pathetic 10-3 - their schedule has to be one of the worst in the country. But... They have some players. They shot 60%+ in the first half and we couldn't buy a bucket for most of the first. Freeman had 2 fouls for most of the first half and had to sit. Yet this team stayed in the game mentally, chipped away, and then saw the door open and exploded through the opening. This is an ass whooping now. We've seen the emergence of a few players tonight, and then you have Freeman. Enrique Freeman needs to be in every All American discussion. He is legitimately one of the most unstoppable forces in the country. This is our MAC.

Masterclass in weathering the storm and unleashing TEAMISM.

Such an uncharacteristic fact for a Groce squad. REALLY loving this run with Freeman on the bench.

Little run here with Freeman NOT on the floor. Very nice to see. Scott, Ali, Tribble, Hunter.

Southern Utah was a top scoring team in the country last season. Todd Simon - their coach at the time - wasn't going to come to BG without finding some scorers. He has done that, and we're screwed if we don't find a way to slow the game down and make our shots.

Tavari sighting.

And... We're back in the MAC. 💩 officiating just gave Freeman his 2nd foul on a bail-out call after the 7' dumb butt for BG went baseline and got stuck under the basket. What an atrocious, game changing call.

Good luck beating anyone if Freeman is doubled and we aren't making our kick-out shots.

As long as we keep Tibesar and the RB coach, I'm happy.
