This has been our best First Half of basketball all year. Flagler and Akinjo are both moving well and appear to be past their injuries.

Prayers up for Jonathan Tchamwa Tchatchoua!


Makes the injury more demoralizing. With the way the freshman and Bonner are starting to figure it out and Flagler playing within himself, thought this would be a title contender with cryer back.

Without Jon don't see it
Good God. Grow a pair. The team's not gonna give up. You shouldn't either.

Yeah a certain poster who shall not be named asked during the West Virginia game where we were getting 3 more wins from to get to 9.

I guess he has his answer.

Ramey and Jones can heat up in a hurry. Cannot lose them on the D end.

Watch out! We have to keep this up. UT is a good team, but we are better so far today.

Glad CSD remeneted how to coach this week. Proud of the players gutsy performance so far. The non starters getting more time will pay off in the long run. Prayers for J

Totally. Dumb foul there though. We have to know the refs are going to call these moving screens EVERY TIME. That's just dumb especially on the perimeter and with Akinjo who, if he doesn't lose the ball, will get you out of that jam every time.

Isn't it weird we don't see posts in game threads from certain posters when we lead wire to wire?

Great answer to UT run! Last 5 they will be jacking up 3s. Stay on Febres, Jones, and Ramey.

Wheeler was about 7'1". Skinny. Lived in Kokernot. He had one eye.

Without editorializing, in the end , he recorded the coach giving him like $300 to make his car payment.

Probation.

We never cheat and win. We cheat.

I could not tell you anything about BU bball until my daughter enrolled in the foreign exchange program here in Italy 3yrs ago. I heard the team with Acy, Tweety and Udoh was the best BU team ever until last year.

No love for John Flippen, the first BU athlete to appear on the cover of Sports Illustrated in a Baylor uniform?

We had another center in the era named Michael Tate. Super guy. He was about 6'9" out of Baltimore.

Tate was a lefty. He had a disability but played hard. Gave his all.

We played Houston in '84? Tate dunked on Hakeem Olajuwon.

Then Hakeem took over and dominated us.

Tate was (and is) an amazing dude. Last time I spoke to him, he was a Washington General.
