I sign up for the games with ESPN+ from Oct thru March. It’s $12/mo and I get just about all the games. In conference games are occasionally shown on CBS SN, NBC, and USA. But even there ESPN+ shows them I believe.

Thanks, Taj Mahal 79. I feel it will come down to how quickly Grant gets them to mesh. A lot of new pieces to fit into the puzzle.

No surprise here UD in at 35, #1 in A10, and dancing as a 6 or 7 seed. Better than I thought given the loss of Holmes. Taj Mahal 79 any thoughts on the Flyers?

Are u saying ESPN+ won’t be carrying Billiken games? They carried all of them last year.

Whew!

5 weeks to heal for Robbie A. Hopefully just a painful twist.

VCU comes in hot at 39, no 2 in A10, and gets a dance invite. So UD will be #1 and dancing too. My take, FEAR THE BILLIKEN! I like our roster; 3 sharpshooters, a big creator, a big front court and a deep bench to cover fatigue and injuries. If they can step up the D, I think we can hang with the big 2.

Should have put in a performance clause. Pure selfishness is commitments were honored. Guys a lousy teammate, but everybody seems to be in it for themselves and the $$’s these days. I do think this NIL model is going to have more of a negative impact on programs and the players. It’s not hard to see where NIL can become a chemistry destroyer.

Could be why his phone isn’t ringing off the hook with HC opportunities. My guess is we’ll see him in a broadcast booth somewhere.

It makes a lot of sense what does a player gain in skills by doing sprints? Doing sprints with a ball in play makes more sense.

We’ve always prayed for stretch 4’s and 5’s like Ellis and Lowe. Seems Schertz read Rick’s Basketball on a Napkin.

The list is down to 43 teams. So far VCU and UD have not been named. This means they are likely being considered as dance teams. I don’t follow their rosters closely but do know that UD has lost Holmes who was really their key guy the last two years. I have no idea about what VCU lost or gained in the portal but if they are in the top 43 it appears they didn’t get hurt too much. A10 media days should be must see TV to get a better understanding of how the Bills stack up against these supposed power houses.

I was living in Ohio, but at night we could pick up KMOX. I listened a few times to the Spoon show. It really should have been called Spoonball on Cards Baseball. He talked more about the Cards than he did the Bills. But no coach ever put more asses in the seats than Charlie. Losing him was Biondi’s biggest faux pas and, with the exception of Rick’s tenure, cost the program its best shot at being in the Beast.

Good posts. The real test for any coach these days is getting 13 individuals to play as 1. NIL $’s will not only impact who you can afford but also keeping your players focused on team goals rather than focusing on how their individual numbers may impact their value in the portal.

Congratulations! Be a Billiken!
