GDT: SLU vs dayton

[maverick]

Listening on the radio to the senior night program. One bright spot is Mama Hargrove. Enjoyed hearing her take the mic. Kudos to her and her family for raising a fine young man.

Now that TJ has had his senior night, I've updated my favorite Billiken.

[HoosierPal]

Mama Hargrove IS THE BEST!

[Dr. Holly Hills]

Feel bad for THJ to go out like this.  What a bizarre, terrible game.  UD basically scored 100 in 32 minutes.

100 points given up on senior night. Fire Travis Ford tonight.

Feel so bad for him.

We boo'd Travis Not sure who else did. 

[Soderball]

Horrible game. Fire Travis Ford.

Skipped going to this one. Watched on TV.

 

Back in the day there's no way my dad and I skip a SLU home game. These are times of tribulation.

I think Dayton is a solid at large recipient.  I hope Richmond wins A10 tournament and at least A10 will have 2 decent teams in NCAA tournament.

 

The NCAA tournament will be fun if we have a new coach already secured.

How does a team get out rebounded 3-1? Unhead of. 

Well for one reason our centers play at the head of the key 20  instead of near the basket.  Considering how bad shooters all three are that's stupid.

[slu92]

Dayton I think had their managers, some pep band guys and an usher in playing final minutes and Travis still had starters in. Pathetic. Guy is all smoke and mirrors, total fraud and a joke. Can’t wait to see how Fake Hair Frank spins this one tomorrow for his buddy Travis!

The not taking a TO to get Hargrove a standing ovation seems bad, but also they had a whole ceremony planned in order to celebrate him so let’s not get carried away

Other schools manage to do both.  You know, since half the fans will leave at 10:00 to go home.

It just seems like such a “Twitter” thing to be upset about. If you really cared about giving a standing ovation at the end of the game you would just stick around for the ceremony…? 

[majerus mojo]

P.s. Ford stinks/terrible game, hate to lose sight of that

[OkieBilliken]

If we just would have had Dalger, Meadows, Parker and Curcic, we would have probably won.  How unlucky.

[juniorbill76]

If you don’t let your walk-ons play the last minute of the last home game behind by 20, when do you?

Don’t forget about Magassa, he was the secret weapon.

When you’re putting lipstick on a pig you leave your starters in to make the game appear closer than reality.  It’s happened many times this year.  It’s very poor form when other teams empty the bench and you try to cut the final lead down.

[DeSmetBilliken]

Not much to say, other than that game really stunk tonight, and the Hargrove family is awesome .

First time all year I’ve been legitimately upset with an officiating crew. That flagrant on Bruce was so weak. 

That was not called a flagrant foul, it was called an intentional foul. The ref that called it immediately made the "crossed arms" signal for intentional.
