moytoy12 Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Tough game. If we're going to lose, not the worst thing to get our asses handed to us early in the season by a likely NCAA team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeSmetBilliken Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 In an otherwise rough game to watch, that 10 second stretch from French with the block and the dunk was the highlight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsBeliever!!! Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I am very happy with how we played yesterday. Beat a very good V Tech team. Tonight's providence just had more rest and seemed to make every shot they took. Mix I some bad foul calls and we lost. We should beat Detroit easily with 4.5 days of rest! GO BILLS!

BillIkenFan_Dan Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 ESPN said the investigation would be at 60 days on nov 24th which means if the players are ok we’ll have 1 more game with out them and we could have them back on nov 28th against western Michigan and the fact that the players are practicing and even traveled this trip makes me think they might just be back soon we’ll find out soon enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheA_Bomb Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I usually get frustrated with losses but I'm alright this morning. Overall good trip and start to the season. I chalk up tonight to lack of depth which I really really hope is resolved soon but I wouldn't bet on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBFan Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 The guys never gave up and will get better and will be real good with AD, Bishop and Graves. FG 19-53, 3pt 6-20, FT 19-27, rebounds Prov 33-28, assists 7, TO's 14, steals 8, blocks 3. Bess 16 pts 2 rebounds, Roby 14 pts 3 rebounds, French 8 pts 10 rebounds, Foreman 8 pts 5 rebounds, Hines 6 pts, Goodwin 4pts 3 rebounds, Psimits 3 pts, JJ 2pts 0 rebounds. What is up with JJ? AD will take his starting spot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVBilliken Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Looking at 8 - 1 the rest of the non-conference schedule. That puts SLU at 11 - 2 going into conference! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old guy Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Not a good night. The refs were totally atrocious but in truth Providence had no problem scoring 3 pointers from just about anywhere, they were equally good with jumpers and with driving to the basket. They shot FTs a lot better than we did, they out rebounded us. We did shoot some 3 pointers but missed a lot of them, did not rebound well, did not shoot FTs as well as they did. The referees put the fear on us about being aggressive, and Providence just had to watch the films from the prior night to know we were scoring primarily by driving to the basket. All they had to do was defend the basket and assume (rightly) that we were not a threat with 3 pointers or jumpers. The refs took care of the rest. A bad loss to us, too bad. Tonight we seriously could have used Bishop and Henriquez but they were not there. Let's see what happens in that regard whenever it happens.

We don’t have the guys that can consistently knock down those shots right now. I see at least three more losses before the conference season without Henriquez and Bishop.

Ford, May, and the other powers that be have a good idea of what happened on that night. If what they knew was really bad, I question if the players would be practicing, or especially traveling to New York. It just might look bad if the players got kicked out of school or suspended, and news got out that the players got to go to NYC. Honestly, I think SLU is drawing out the investigation as long as they can, so they can say they were thorough and point to the players missing a few games to suggest that the players didn’t get off scott free.
