McBroom starting for JJ? Anybody have any idea why?

Athletic scholarships are not semester by semester. They're yearly.

Wisconsin putting on an absolute clinic. Up 40-14 at half against N'Western

It's hard to get more local for SLU than Cardinal Ritter...

Per @BWeixScout Also: @BWeixScout: Biedscheid will look closer to home. SLU/Mizzou likely, IMO. RT @realbburwell: @BWeixScout tell us more. We want more. Give us a destination

FWIW, Doby just committed to DePaul

As good as he looked against Santa Clara? What about Rhode Island? Or how about the whole noncon season last year (sans NM)? It's December. We're not dropping any of these games like we have in the past. I have faith that this team will pick it up come January.

Also: Seton Hall is really, REALLY bad. Lost to Saint Peter's at home.

I honestly think much less of the bad BE teams like St. John's, Depaul, and Seton Hall. They rode the coattails of the elite Big East teams for years and now think they're entitled to respect in this new league. Well newsflash Mr. Walter Cronkite... you're still terrible.

I agree and disagree. I think Klinsi's system is ideal for MB4. It lets him roam free in the middle and make it his own. I think JJ is a good compliment to him as he makes things difficult for the opponent with his physicality, which compliments MB's distribution skills. However, I agree with you about JJ with his over aggressiveness. I think that's something that Klinsi needs to rein in before we get to Brazil. I think Bradley has turned into an outstanding box to box CM- a poor man's Yaya Toure (best CM in the world IMO) Also, it's Ronaldo. With an O.

Definitely didn't expect Loe to go hard to the bucket like that.

Has a similar role with Schalke. Makes the game a mess in the middle. Goal is to make it hard for the opponent to use the midfield to connect the play from defense to the attack. Succeeds in arguably the best league in the world (& Champions League as well). I think his nastiness compliments MB4's technical skills greatly.

So will our attack against their defense, which isn't good.

Especially losses at home, regardless of opponent

I disagree, but regardless, he plays at a level that's higher than ANYONE else in the US system, and that's the biggest thing keeping him in the team.

The man's great at his job...making the middle ugly for other teams. He's not out there to be creative. Sacha on the other hand.... We should be fine if we come to play. Our back line is a huge question mark. We're the second best team in this group, and we should advance if we play well. In Jurgen I trust

You understand you're comparing decent players at mid majors to one of the 50 best players in the whole country right?

I play golf in the conference, and I can tell you, travel isn't fun. From Rockhurst in KC to Wisconsin-Parkside to Bellarmine in Louisville. Exciting travel.

Rockhurst was easily the worst team in the GLVC last year. Downright bad, even for a D2 team. They were voted to finish dead last in the GLVC again. Should be a good bounce back game for us. Hopefully a good and much-needed confidence booster for us.

It's baseball only, if I remember correctly. Locker room, batting cage, etc.

We lost to #12 and #10 by single digits. This delusional VCU troll thinks that is somehow worse than getting run out of the gym by Florida State and losing to a VERY average Georgetown team is better than our two top twelve losses. We'll be fine. Havoc is the same joke it was last year.

But... But... I thought the Big East was supposed to be much better than the A10...

It was a joke. Does anyone with any sense actually think this? Come on.
