Really hope he doesn't transfer. The depth in the middle is going to be thin enough as is.

Bills looking good. Wish I could have been at the game, but the wife has me wrapping Xmas presents. At least she is letting me drink all the eggnog I want while doing it.

Got away with one, but a win is a win. Certainly 100 times better than losing and my wife didn't have to banish me to the basement, so I could flip the coffee table.

I heard the team they lost to was Carlton. Rough Season ahead.

That dance team reminds me of the cheerleaders from the waterboy

Score update? At Cirque due Soleil Michael Jackson. Thanks

77-67. Bills finally put together a complete game. At least that is what I am hoping.

Oh and Happy New Years Bills FANS! Let's get ready for conference play.

No way the lobos win this on a neutral court. More motivation for the Bills heading into conference play. Good knowing that if we shot close to our normal percentage that the refs wouldn't have had a chance to be a factor.

Kenpom now has at 122... In all seriousness this game won't kill us. Rickma will have them ready to play Saturday. Let the team rest and win Saturday. If we are 12-1 going into the New Mexico game we will be ranked again. The sky isn't falling

If you can't get espn3, I think they are also replaying the game on ESPN 8- The Ocho at 11pm tonight.

NBA scouts just left with 15 mins left in the game. Seemed quite impressed.

I missed the youtube video of the the Washington Bball team foot racing the Billikens. Can someone repost? Fact of the matter is this will be a good measuring stick for both teams. I think Washington fans are underestimating the Bills talent. Probably rightfully so given how the Bills have performed in the past couple years. Let's hope the Bills show up tomorrow and start making some statements.

This years or last years?

I heard it was because they had football...

An African or European Swallow?

It's hard to say what our record would be with Reed and Mitchell, but it isn't hard to imagine being near the top of the league. Imagine adding 2 consistent scoring threats and a big that can rebound. The lack of both of these has hurt the Bills in a lot of games this year. Reed and Mitchell are enough to swing a game by 10 pts, so yes we probably would have beaten Dayton. We beat them last year with those 2 and they aren't nearly as good this year. And so we wait another year and have to put up with close losses for the time being.

12 scholarship athletes...unless someone gets hurt or suspended or decides to leave. Then we would be in the same position. There is a lot more to basketball than being a scorer. Defense, team leadership, facilitating an offense (all things that KC does better currently than the freshmen)...KC will never be a scorer. He isn't that type of player. I would rather he continue his shot selection than see him force it and throw up some ugly looks. With 15-20 minutes next year he will provide a steady hand at the help and set up the scorers we should have. It may be that JJ or MM pass him up and take most of his minutes. That is fine with me too, but for right now KC is doing about as well as he can.

Tired of playing short handed. And if Cassity doesn't come back next year...we would be shorthanded. The entire issue is that everyone has been forced into a role they weren't meant to be playing. When Majerus recruited KC do you think he was thinking "I just got my leading scorer"? No Majerus recruited KC for his basketball IQ and passing. He has been forced into the scoring role and frankly I think he has done a decent job with it. Is he as good as Kwamain? Hell no. But I feel much more comfortable with KC than the freshmen (who are not consistent right now). KC is able to facilitate a fair amount of good looks for others. We didn't lose to Rhode Island because of KC. We lost to Rhode Island because we shot under 40%. The looks were there for everyone, and nobody knocked them down.

My mistake. I forgot they were only shooting that % until about midway through the 2nd half. Then they started to click. I am still appalled at the inability to make high percentage shots (i.e. layups and FT's). This makes the team much more susceptable of living and dying by the 3.

Agreed. Good team win. And even more importantly, the team had a lead, blew it and then came together to close it out. Now the next step is to not blow the lead! Playing great defense lately, but that shooting % has to get better. Not going to win many games shoot in the low 30's.

I thought Kwamain couldn't travel with the team until cleared by the NCAA. Am I wrong about this?

Maybe his quote just meant that he is eager to get back on the court and start practicing with the team again...

Thanks. I feel better now.

Why do I have a bad feeling that there has been no word on Willie yet? I would think they would announce the re-admissions together...Hope I am just over analyzing it.
