Couldn't agree with both of you more.

This game is too big for a number of the guys.

Come on

Have to feel good about being down 4 after that horrible start. We took Kent's punch (and punched ourselves a little bit too), and Enrique isn't in foul trouble. Let's go!!

Unfortunately I'm not sure what else we have on offense. Shut down one of Freeman or X and let the other and the rest of the team beat you is the way to beat us. Haven't had the role players step up enough consistently throughout the year.

We're getting embarrassed in every facet of the game.

Nobody outside of X or Freeman showing up yet and Kent shooting well...not good. And Hankerson hits his 2nd 3 as I type

My wife made a comment last game about how grungy all of Kent's players look.

agreed. should have dunked it.

The goal for Kent is clearly to take advantage of our big guys guarding them on the switch.

Jacobs is still a punk a$$

Wake up...

Looks like he made better money than I thought after reading the article Hilltopper shared.

I can't imagine foreign basketball players make serious bank....seems like a lot to risk for a little gain.

LFG! The key to winning the tournament is having the majority of our guys show up and meet the expectations of their roles. Obviously this is X and Freeman carrying us, with a handful of others contributing as well. We we're firing on all cylinders last night. If we do it again...onto the finals. No show by X or Freeman or no show by most of the supporting cast, it'll be tough.

Not good.

We are really firing on all cylinders. Typical Groce team when it matters most! Hope we can get some rest. Big game followed by another big game!

South Canada sounds good!

Pretty good first half all around!

Nate Johnson did it again..

No NIT appearances, not NCAA appearances, and I believe no finish higher than 5th in the A10 since his arrival. The A-10 is weaker than when he arrived too as they are now a basically 1-2 bid league annually. He definitely took them out of the basement, but they aren't real contenders. I think I read on their board he's averaging something like 6-7 players entering the transfer portal every year since his arrival. Lot of turnover.

Pressure's on for Guthrie to get the new hire right.

What ironic about that is the A10 is a one bid league this year. At least he got his 20 win season. Last I recall, KD's contract was up at the end of the year. Wonder what they do?

While I don't necessarily disagree that Enrique isn't the type of shot blocker that Zeke or Aziz were/are, he did win conference DPOY last year.

Agreed @Blue & Gold, Cleveland State and YSU are two teams we should play every year, no matter what (home or away). I think there'd be much better attendance/interest than playing some random Sun Belt team or other low-major.
