WE BACK?!

It's nice to see some signs of life - all is forgiven if we win @ vcu next week.

All will not be forgiven, but it will be nice to go in to the tournament with some life

Its unfortunate it took this long to show signs of life again

Where was this effort against URI and Richmond? Sure Martin is dominating but you can live with that if the rest of the team makes life hard on the other 4 on the floor.

Spacing, movement, passing on the other end?

Hopefully this isn’t just a one-off and we can go into the tournament with some juice.

Mason wins 71-58

Tony Skinn is now 4-0 against St Bonaventure

Troutman was on fire today. Where has he been?

 

[Portlandian]

MVP!

Riley looked helpful all over. Is it because his guy had less height?

Just got home from the game. To be honest I was surprised with the result while at the same time happy as Hell with the result. I was especially happy to see Allenspach and Sivka give us some "tough" moments that they have failed to give us over the past several games. Was that because of the opponent or has there been a message delivered in practice that was carried out? Time will tell, just happy with the result. Also hoping that Fatt Hill's injury is not serious.

Troutman....man i forgot about him. And he was my favorite player to start the year. If he does well, we usually win. He's gotta keep it up and not dissappear again.

I’d say it had a lot to do with the guards being much more active on the perimeter hounding the opposing guards; and the help he got from the 4 (Kanga, Sivka, Ellington, and Hill) was better than I’ve seen in a long time.

Also hoping that Fatt Hill's injury is not serious.

Allenspach looked like his HEALTHY and happy self today.

Wten Fatt was carried off the court, putting no weight on his left (I think) foot, I was extremely worried that he broke his ankle. Seeing on the bench was sort of a relief. But is a hit less than two weeks too little time recover in order to play again?

 

[Where's the party?]

I know no coach would ever do this, but wouldn't it be cool if it turned out Tony read all the posts after the St. Joes game to the team to fire them up?

 

[Where's the party?]

Prepare for disappointment. Either the beer will suck or the game will. Maybe both.

Neither! The team played a good game and the beer was plentiful and cold. Gimme more of that!

The game has to be played.
