Another game that quite simply "losing teams lose". A better team, a tougher team, a better coached team wins this game. In regulation no less.

This is where we are, guys and gals. Another Frank Martin team that's not mentally strong, physically strong, fundamentally strong, defensively strong ...

Agreed! I think a couple of the calls were soft, but he’s got to be better at defending without fouling. And then he was a liability on the floor for a couple possessions where EMU scored so back to the pine he goes.

Came here to ask the same thing. I figured you guys would be on it.
The ESPN.com gamecast isn't showing any data either so I'm hoping it's just delayed for some reason.

Great win for the guys yesterday, on top of the BC win earlier in the week. "Belief" is a powerful thing, and I think after beating two ACC programs they will (rightly) head into the MAC season believing that they can win every game. They can now visualize what it takes to do it.

Highly unlikely ...

If we're going to be a contender in the MAC, a few things would get us there:

1. Play D like we did in the last 3 minutes
2. Can Jayden to give us 6-8 points on a consistent basis, to add on to everything else he does for us.
3. Can Parker revert back to how he looked in the first 4 games?
4. Can ...

I remember last year before the season started Frank referred to the roster as now "having my guys" on the team. Loyal guys. He was tired of the transfers who weren't loyal to him, let alone the school. And now this year he's saying the same thing -- now he's got the "right guys". It's just blaming ...

I'll be there with my +1 (aka the wife).
Section F.
"It's gonna be awesome, baby!"

Very curious to see how this parking situation works out. They're saying to come in through the back entrance (Cold Storage Dr.). Hopefully I can get into Lot 25 and don't get stuck in Lot 12.

Year 3 with season tix.
Year 5 with regular attendance.
Year 37 (since freshman year in 89-90) attending/obsessing overall.

HA! That's right. Forgot about that. Goes to show how much I follow these guys once they ditch the maroon and white.

Ha ha, yeah, you certainly stopped watching. Cohen changed his commit from Arkansas to USC in less than a week. :D


It's probably worth a separate thread rather than hijacking ...

HA! That's right. Forgot about that. Goes to show how much I follow these guys once they ditch the maroon and white. "Once a player leaves Durham they don't ever come back."

Cohen is playing at USC. I hope all his dreams come true.

My son said that Cohen got 400K from where he went and rides the bench. The one who went to the other school got 600K and is a star.


Matt Cross is averaging around 8 and 8 for SMU. He's starting and playing good minutes. He's not the #1, 2, or even 3 option for the Mustangs. Certainly not a ...

"Free throws win ball games." It's a story as old as time.

As for individual players, Curry, Diggins and DHS are performing where I expected/hoped. DHS might be able to do a bit more offensively but 10/5 is his neighborhood. Maybe he gets to 14/7 after A10 play.

Ndjigue has been nearly invisible ...

Just rumor so take it for what it's worth, but TCU's Flying T guys (their collective) are upset and letting their SMU buddies hear about it that Matt supposedly committed to TCU during his visit. Matt's agent leveraged that deal to get more money out of SMU. Once secured, Matt flipped his commitment ...

Hi all. I'm extremely conflicted this morning. As some of you know, I'm not just a UMass season tix holder and MassCo member but I'm also an SMU grad, a Mustang Club donor, and a card-carrying member of PonySportsDTX (one of their Collectives). I'll miss watching Matt at UMass, no question. And if ...

I'm talking about the people who go in and out of the rows every fucking minute. Most of them don't know which team UMass is. I do stand up just so I can see the game, but half the people dont even watch any of it


100% right on this. wait at the top of the steps for a one of the timeouts ...
