Want to get in a worse mood? Rivera had 12 points and 7 rebounds in Bryant's upset of then #10 and currently #13 FAU. It has been 11 seasons since we beat a ranked opponent. We haven't beaten a top 10 team on the road, like Bryant did, since we beat #3 Kentucky on March 2, 1964.
You gotta be f-ing kidding me.
This is not quite as bad as the Cardinals with Arozarena, Gallen, Alcantara, Garcia, etc., but it ain't good.

Daniel Rivera: Averaging 10.0 PPG, 7.1 RPG, and 2.0 APG for Bryant. His dunk last night against lower-division Springfield made the SportsCenter Top Ten.

I think Bruce has a much higher ceiling than Heinrich. Heinrich was a better defensive player than Bruce is right now, but Heinrich never had the natural offensive ability that Bruce has displayed. Bruce is a better athlete than Heinrich. That isn't meant as a shot at Heinrich. Heinrich was a serviceable center on two NCAA tournament teams while playing in a much better conference loaded with high quality big men. He would have been an even better if he ever got himself into better shape while he was here and if he could have learned how to stay out of foul trouble. He ended up playing for over a decade in Europe.
Remember before we had Conklin Summers we had Heinrich going to big man camp, and for years everyone would ask why our bigs wouldn't just go to the big man camp Heinrich went to and magically transform into better players.

Lassina Traore goes for 12 and 10 in Long Beach’s 94-86 upset of Michigan. That’s one big I’d like to have back.

Parker's injury will get the younger guys more minutes. Maybe they develop quicker. Guys step up. It's a rough 2-3 months but Parker comes back to a team that is developing and growing faster than expected. Go into the A10 tournament as a red hot 9 seed knowing that everyone in the conference is beatable and that we have the potential to go on a serious run and make the NCAA. Lose by 28 to the 8 seed.
Nailed it.

Got to play smarter, two bad takes to the rim and a dumb foul by Medley. Can’t waste possessions or out them on rhe line.
Go to the game day thread, my man.

Well, Catamount is a better nickname than “Puma concolor” which is the actual name for a species which is called by various names including puma, cougar, mountain lion, painter, and mountain screamer.
This would be a far superior nickname.

Lassina Traore had 17 points and 11 rebounds for Long Beach State against DePaul the other night.

This contract is right up there with the Spirits of St. Louis and Bobby Bonilla. Great job by the agent.

Very weird, cult-like school.

Also, there is no offset if he takes another job, so he can double dip.

That just means he'll have four years of eligibility when he comes back to SLU. Win for us.

If this is "the worst" that Wemby will be in his career, it is down right scary to think how good he's going to be!
He had no fear whatsoever at going at Durant. A few times he took Booker completely out of the game and got a couple easy baskets out of it.
The Spurs have pretty amazing timing when it comes to getting the No. 1 pick.

I was actually entertained last night. Will I feel the same way if we lose every game but play that style of basketball? TBD.
Spoiler alert: You will not.
