Amazingly dumb and careless basketball by Cincinnati down the stretch. ISU basketball IQ is very high.

The popularity of women's college basketball is soaring. I hope the Billikens can be a big part of it. There's a lot to like about Coach Tillett besides the awesome A10 tourney run last year. I think she makes great halftime adjustments. I also like her overall in-game demeanor. Recruiting prowess remains an unknown. This off-season is very important for them. We need an influx of talent.

At least they only said "interview Ahearn" rather than "hire Ahearn" My immediate thought is why would any of those guys have the best interest in SLU in mind? And no one will disparage their reputation if Ahearn would subsequently fail because they were "just looking out for a friend".

Glad dukies won but that game was painful to watch. Normally solid Clark and Grant really struggled. Props to Coach Dambrot.

Jimerson named 3rd team all-conference
Dr Bird replied to billikenbill's topic in Billikens.com Main Board
The new coach will decide who he wants to pursue from the old roster. Spoonhour "re-recruited" Highmark and Claggett even though the team had only won 5 games (and Highmark was not a renowned defender). Spoonball was very different from Grawer's style. If the new coach cleans house, so be it. If he re-recruits some of the existing players, that's great. Either way, the new coach will be incentivized to win and will do what it takes to get there. -

I agree Gibby's defense has improved. I think during the latter part of the season, we were a better team overall with SVB on the floor. -
End of a (mediocre) era. Travis Ford is out.
Dr Bird replied to ARon's topic in Billikens.com Main Board
My main reasons for wanting to move on is the blowout opening round losses in the 1 NCAA and both NITs. It became unreasonable to hope for a deep run under Ford. It's time to see what the next guy can do. -
why is Bruce out there at this stage of game?
-
Medley looking much improved. SVB is a gamer

I feel the same way. I want our players to do great and experience success. The only downside of a broadcast is when the announcer does the obligatory excuse-rant for CFord when they know it has been said already a million times. Just call the game and focus on the players.

By the end of the game, the TV announcers were stunned by the futility of our defense.

I've said this before and I may be 100% wrong, but I think AD May gave Ford the huge long-term contract not so much to prevent Ford from leaving, but to guarantee a big buyout payday to SLU when a P5 school came a-calling with unlimited resources. Of course the strategy backfired badly.

I think Dayton is a solid at large recipient. I hope Richmond wins A10 tournament and at least A10 will have 2 decent teams in NCAA tournament. The NCAA tournament will be fun if we have a new coach already secured.

no. in fact he makes a lot of good pocket bounce passes to Brad. that lob pass was pretty bad though
