kwyjibo Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I was talking to some UMass fans this weekend and things are a little shaky there right now because of some "internal" issues. They benched 3 players for their exhibiition against the AIC Yellowjackets because of unspecified team issues. In that game, Freddie Riley took advantage of more playing time by jacking a lot of crappy shots and causing more "team" issues. This could all be sorted in time for game time in over an hour but something is going on right now (I will not say much more but UMass appears to be hurt, at least temporarily, by the loss of some assistant coaches--Kellogg might be able to get things together but it looks like it is going to be bumpy at the start). If I was coaching a SLU game for 10am, I would want Luther Burden playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kshoe Posted November 13, 2012 Author Share Posted November 13, 2012 North Texas lost last night to a D2 team so we can probably scratch them off as one of our big non conference opponents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wiz Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 North Texas lost last night to a D2 team so we can probably scratch them off as one of our big non conference opponents. You think N Tex is weak....wait till you see UT-Martin, one of the worst teams ever. They make N Tex look like Kansas. Btw...SIU is not much better than UT-M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyJumpUp Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 North Texas lost last night to a D2 team so we can probably scratch them off as one of our big non conference opponents. Every good team is bound to have an off day. North Texas is a good team. Don't let last year's Mean Green record fool you. They will probably win their conference and go to the Dance, and will count as a top 100 win for us in March. Niko Stojiljkovic (had 10 boards against Troy two years ago)vs. Rob Loe will be a fun one. I'm taking nothing as a given this year, except that there will be some stupid sh!t posted on this board throughout the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No shame in losing to Div II Alabama -Huntsville ...#3 in the nation-Div II.... Ala-H could beat a lot of Div 1 teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say North Texas and any D1 team losing to a D2 or NAIA team is below average, just my opinion.(my previous post was poking fun at some posters on this board) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taj79 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Valpo 13 of 24 from three; 12 of 24 on twos. Broekhoff, Boggs and Kenney only double digit scorers and each included at least three threes. See how that plays out on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taj79 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Scootie Randall throws down 31 as Temple romps at Kent State 80 to 66. Five-of-12 from three point land, 10-of-19 overall. TJ DiLeo and Dalton Pepper got more minutes at guard than either starter Khalif Wyatt or Will Cummings. That's interesting. If DiLeo is your third-leading scorer for the year, you got trouble. Wyatt had six assists and only one personal foul yet played only 17 minutes. Hmmmm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyatt had six assists and only one personal foul yet played only 17 minutes. Hmmmm? From my understanding, Wyatt tweaked his hamstring early in the game and had to come out for a bit. He was able to return in the 2nd half so apparently it isn't serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLU_Nick Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Xavier completely dominating Butler. Up 20 with 5 min to go. I love this. People are anointing Butler and they get trounced by the team who is projected to finish bottom half. Welcome to the A-10 Butler. Insert snark comment about VCU here also.
