@wrwlumpy Does such a great job I thought I'd give it a try!
As we've seen, this team has a fairly thin line between success and failure. We've dodged a lot of bullets thus far. I think you're right, we'll win another league championship, but we'll have to develop some more toughness, especially defensively to win what we all want.
2 dollar tickets always have a surcharge. Probably 3 or 4 bucks. I use stubhub a lot. The higher the ticket the higher the surcharge.
Not sure if anyone remembers but a week ago we lost at ASU who just lost to Princeton in the same gym.
Where's Jaybate when we need him?
Nice Tree!
Can they call a double flagrant? They both did the same thing.
I think it'd be kind of funny if EMU's mascot was an Emu.
This game is boring.
Nice shot Tree
@BShark Announcer was wrong, Tree had missed one when he said that.
I'm starting to worry about our 3 point shooting.
@BeddieKU23 Afraid you'll have to go back and watch the MSU game then!
Nice shot Tree!
@Crimsonorblue22 Did you go to this game?
This is embarrassing. EMU scored 4 in the first half against Rutgers, they've got almost 5 times as much right now.
2 EMU, used to hang out in my classroom some in Baton Rouge. We used to call him tree. Glad to see him in AFH.
Doke making up for lost time.
Huh, whadya know about that. EMU making 3's or almost threes against our perimeter D.
I have an announcement. I met Porter Moser last night, Loyola's FF coach, and told him I have some eligibility left. He asked me if I can shoot, and I said yes and I can still touch the net. I am declaring my intent to further my basketball career at Loyola next fall. Go Ramblers.
Malik should have stayed, then we wouldn't be having these silly discussions about Garrett!
2nd link is the story of EMU scoring 4 points in the first half against Rutgers this year.
@Hawk8086 I do recall now seeing a story about him a couple of years ago. As I recall, he just went through some tough times. He was from an extremely tough neighborhood where I taught. After his freshman year, he got recruited to play ball at a private school. But a year or two later was in some hot water. I think it was a domestic incident. I'm absolutely thrilled that he is a senior in college and a productive member of a DI team. I will be cheering for him Saturday for sure!.
Cool! James Thompson #2 was a freshman student at my school. I'd totally lost track of him, I know he'd had some legal issues, but he made it up to ypsi apparently. We called him tree because he was tall. Glad to see he's doing well.
What did Grimes do in game one that he hasnβt been able to since? I donβt understand. The talent seemed to ooze from his veins that night. Iβm puzzled because I was thinking this guy is going to be our best freshman in quite a while.
Merry Christmas too! Good perspective on things
My adult daughter was trying to sleep in the living room at 12:30 when I was finishing watching when she finally blurted out, "KU lost Dad, go to bed". So i missed the call that should have been reversed. I was pretty pissed by that point, which is stupid because I'd had a great evening to that point, but I was glad she spared me the last minute at least.
It's interesting how poor officiating combined with poor play by our part in the 2nd half really is a deadly combo for us fans. We're upset with the team and we can rightly blame them for losing, but in such a tight contest, we can look at officials and say, we'd still have won this game had the officiating been more even.
At least @BShark is happy, he was finally right.
Christmas gift from daughter to Chicago Symphony meant DVR'd game, and a quick watch. I saw the 1st half, ff'd the 2nd half in parts, although i saw all of our possessions. So here goes.
13-3 foul count (I think) in the first half. My wife looked at me funny (happens a lot) as I was getting agitated and she kept looking at the score and us up by 5-10. I know other teams get hosed too, but goodness, it really stings when it's us, and a quick read through the game thread means a lot of ya'll thought the same.
Walton was effusive in his praise of our program. I like that guy.
KU just got fouled again, no call.
We might have set the school record for airballed threes tonight.
Some ASU freshman ran at a ref arguing one of the few first half calls against them and didn't get T'd up.
The refs should have given themselves a T for their ASU myopia.
Lawson was heading for a 40 point game and then he ended his night at 30 seemingly not scoring in the last 10 minutes. I guess foul trouble sat him?
Vick seemingly stands and watches 3 point shooters right in front of him. The dude can leap out of the gym. I'd like to see him challenge those shots.
We win if Doke is playing. Just too much KU inside.
The Chicago in me and of course the KU in me really wants Charlie to be playing better than he is.
Grimes is a head case. Walton kept talking about him and the NBA and I'm just not sure.
College players on the #1 team in the country ought to be able to finish a fast break 1 on 1 opportunity. Our guys just can't for some reason.
Congrats to ASU, you just won your biggest game of all time. You've been to three elite 8's. 43 years ago was your last elite 8.
@stupidmichael That's always a good sign!
Thanks for sharing. Stories of Christian persecution inspire me.
