    Well at least we're up over 1 ballot. I thought when we first appeared that if we won through this coming week we'd be ranked. I was probably 2 weeks short. Which sucks that you need to win 16 straight or whatever but here we are. Let's do it

    I would hope we wouldn't pull an offer from a commit

    I'm alright with it, they called it by the rules. I posted it earlier in the thread, but Buffalo plays a very aggressive man defense and if hand checks weren't called we were at a disadvantage from the get-go. Do I personally like the rule? Not so much, but it's been there for a few years now. Don't like getting the little calls? Then adjust. I think we did a better job adjusting to it.

    While Kwan is a whole heck of a lot better than Deji, I think Deji made a bigger jump. Kwan was pretty decent last year. While Deji was pretty hopeless. Especially from the line.

    I've always thought this. Switch it up for a possession or two now and then to keep them honest. Throw in a half court trap or a little zone for a bit. Maybe it forces them to burn a timeout, or forces them into a bad decision. Going to the 3-2 a few years ago against buffalo started a huge run for us that game.

    Which is understandable since it's with all the Florida kids. But it's funny if you think of it from their side - like why the f are we competing with Akron for all these kids in our backyard?

    Just win, baby.

    UB is much better than OU

    Wonder if Kwan caught a certain someone's eye tonight

    Phew. On to the next one

    Can't argue with a wide open three. Sometimes you wait and end up rushing a bad shot

    I was just thinking that. Hurley left a little mark on him

    Just as I post it they call a hand check. If they keep them honest it'll open things up a bit for us

    Buffalo is big. I hate when refs get suckered into calling games like this. Buffalo's playing very aggressive man to man and they aren't calling the little bumps and hand checks. We aren't and so are getting called for every little bit of contact. Cue ZN conspiracists

    Looks like a nice crowd on the 3

    I'm still mad about that

    I'm pretty sure JWood's first three was in the last minute against Kent in 2008. Call me crazy, but I think Tree > JWood. Would have loved to see a full senior year from Tree. I think we'd be hanging his jersey here in a few years.

    Yep. Big Dog is a little better offensively but Zeke is maybe the best defender the conference has seen. He changed games singlehandedly and allowed our team to play a much more aggressive defense since he was there to clean up the mistakes.

    Both losses came after the postage incident. Odds are they will drop one or probably two. But I think it's possible to run the table You think Rodgers would give us permission to get these in blue and gold?

    I always second guess myself when I'm agreeing with Skip

    Saturday night? I bet we're closer to 5K than 4K

    None of the 4 road MAC games are gimmies

    To bring this back on topic - per this link, the Celtics made $57MM last year. The quote was "something has to happen for the owners to be able to stay afloat." They don't need to do this. But they can, and I don't blame them.

    You're right. They do it because they have so much money that spending a few hundred million for a hobby is no biggie. Hence why I don't feel too bad for them. And any operating loss (not sure I believe that anyway) is most likely recouped and then some when they sell.
