Temple

We have 5 players on this roster right now who have shown they have the ability to average double figures. If Eason can suck it up for just the rest of this year and play the 5...we can close the season strong. Play him at the 4 when JD comes out and put Dou or Vogt at the 5.

At full roster strength and health I would expect a beat down...but for now I will settle for a double digit win which we haven't seen since the 1st game of the year. We need a lop sided win to build some confidence. If the effort of the last couple of games continues this one should be a no brainer assuming Harvey and Dou are back in action.

Need to breathe some life back into this fan base!

I’ll take wins anyway I can get them at this point. If that means playing temple and Tulane every game, so be it. Anything to get us momentum and something to sell to potential recruits. I’m not going to act like I’m above beating bad conference teams. We’ve been doing it for 30 years

I’ll take any win. What is up this ESPN+ junk? We used to be on Fox Sports where you could actually watch the game. This is going to hurt our local fan base. What jack off set the TV deal up?

Probably the worst 4 minutes of the season. And that’s saying something

Man, this league is really trending down and lost a lot of momentum.

In the last 18 months:
- the winningest coach in the league goes to UCLA
-the best name brand leaves for big east
-Fran dunphy retires while passing the reins to a dud
- Greg Marshall is ousted

Frickin A10 is nipping at our heels in Kenpom conference rankings.


We really need football to bail us out and get us into a better league, because.... this is gross

The league should be better but the teams can’t figure it out. They are good brands but all seem to be stuck. Even UConn sucked in this league

The Big 12/10 is being such a prima donna. We would have been the best football team in its league this year. Plus Huggs has lobbied to get us in because we are a natural rival for W. Va. And yet they get to hopple along impersonating a 12 team league.

Some eye brow raising starts and subs means coach ain’t messing around I think. If we can ever get our 5 best on the court together we are gonna look a LOT better!
