The advanced stats don't look friendly to BG - as if they've been playing over their heads a bit. KenPom has them at #160 and us at around 10 points better. Would be nice if this is the game they came back down to earth. We shall see

I think EMU was playing well but we got ourselves a lot of open looks in the first half and could not get anything to drop.

Cream rises to the top. Zips by 10 tomorrow

Seeing some of the clips posted over the last couple weeks of MAC tourney games made me miss those days. Hopefully they're back for a while now. Knowing we were playing every Saturday at the Q was the best

GT had a movie to catch

Well, conference, I should say.

Let's tighten our grip on the East Tuesday. Go Zips!

Shelton Felton is the best name ever and I'm sad he's gone

Set the UVU single season block record last night. Good for him

My feelings on Regghi are that he's a goofball, but he's our goofball. When I hear Regghi I know I'm watching some MAC hoops. Yes that's not exactly the strongest endorsement but whatever. He at least knows the MAC pretty well

Like anyone here knows lol

Also, appears LCJ has 962 points in an Akron uniform at the moment.

Well yeah ?

sports-reference is the only place i care to go to look up stats

EMU doesn't scare me. I'd go Toledo UB Kent BUGS Who cares after that

I'd find it tough to include Cheese as he only had two years. If we're ranking the 10 "best" as opposed to the 10 greatest careers you could definitely make an argument. That's where these things always get tricky. I'm just excited to watch LCJ for another year +. I hesitate to say we're spoiled because things haven't been that good, but we're lucky. Even since I got to campus in 07 we've had a tremendous top 10 or so: JWood Zeke LCJ Cheese McNees Big Dog Ivey Tree Conyers McKnight brothers Linhart Dials In no order

I'd like to see a regular season championship and the 1 seed but that bottom bracket looks quite cupcake-y.

That give 'n go was when I posted that Riak is our 3rd best center. Sayles taking that pass and going to the rim was exactly what makes LCJ more dangerous. When Riak is on the floor, not only is he no threat to score, he takes away a lot of our dribble-drive threats because defenders underneath aren't as afraid to help out and leave Riak alone. Sayles and Reece on the floor give LCJ, as well as Banks and Cheese, more room and more options when they get to the lane. Riak is a great defender, and he had a huge block at the end of the game. I think he has a role but his offensive limitations make it hard to see him play 20+ minutes.

"come and take it"

There's only one thing left to do

Riak is our 3rd best Center

from what I understand coaches aren't allowed with the team until Spring practice - which hasn't started right?
