I do think some kids would prefer to stay close to home so their family can come watch them. Some also think they want to go away and become home sick and transfer. it’s not the only reason but can be A reason

I’ve said this on the forum before but I’m CONVINCED if Terrance Whiters doesnt get arrested before that 2001-2002 season we would’ve been near the top of the CAA that year. Him and Gary had such a great chemistry, they would’ve been the best backcourt in the league.

I generally agree with these horrifically written comments but at some point enough has to be enough. I’m close to that point. I don’t think he deserves to be fired but if we don’t make the tourney I don’t think his contact should be renewed. He was given a brand new arena with drastically increased facilities. I was in PKs staff as a manager and his whole thing was getting a new arena built. He was told it was going to happen and obviously never was during his tenure. I very much appreciate Skerry getting us out of the depths of hell. But at some point it will be time to move on. I want nothing more than him to make the tourney. He’s a great man by all accounts and he’s been incredible for the program. But there is one thing left to do….

He was a first team all conference player. If any transfer gets to that status it’s a home run.

So offensive rebounds and FTs work when it’s not Towson. But when it’s Towson it’s called Skerry ball. got it…

Man that was heartbreaking. Up 1 with 1:08 left and just couldn’t get that turnover at the end of the shot clock. Had 2 great looks on the following possession. Just didn’t make the shots at the end. After not winning one this year, idk if we ever will. Cam was incredible. I don’t think this one was Skerrys fault but he’s on the hot seat, if that’s even possible.

The refs don’t care who wins this game. They just wanna get to Greensboro for the ACC tourney or NYC for the Big East

These guys have an edge to them like we’ve never really seen with Towson. Normally we are the guys getting picked on. At times it is overboard and borderline dirty but I’d prefer this way than the way it has been in the past. interested to see what these guys bring Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.

Kelsey’s contract doubled today with a 5 yr extension for $1.2 MPY

IMO this sets us up in the semis and finals how we’d want it. You want to play the deeper team earlier (Charleston) the play Hofstra in the finals who relies on 2 guys to carry them. It’ll be harder for Hofstra to win 3 in a row than us. Conway and May have been chipping in nicely. That 3 from May last night could be a nice confidence boost heading into next week. Glad to see Cam make some FTs tonight. Seeing those go in will be important as he’ll be the guy teams are fouling late in games. To me, winning last night is psychologically important from a confidence perspective. It matters more than “playing the bracket”. These are kids, their mental state and confidence weighs more than who we are playing. I don’t want to go into DC on a two game losing streak. Nothing else matters at this point. I feel like these guys know that it’s win 3 or the season is a disappointment. I’ve been saying it since October, making it to the finals is just not enough with the expectations this year.

Womp womp

The only 2 losses they could really afford is vs Towson and vs UNCW. Both are in the top 135 in the NET currently but I’d think losing 1 of those 2 and a Conf Finals loss would still get them in. To 2012’s point, the only other over .500 teams they play are UD and Drexel who would end up being bad L’s. As bad as the bottom of the league is, the top 4 (CoC, UNCW, Hofstra, Towson) are pretty dang good.

It seems like they’re coming together. They are starting to be each others biggest fans and supporting each other to get to that next level. Maybe this is what the 3 game suspension taught them, we’ll probably never know. But they’ve gotten better in the last month and that’s the most important thing.

A lot depends on who they lose to. Losing to one of the top 4 in the league won’t hurt as much as a bad loss. I’d say they can probably tolerate 1 more reg season and a loss in the finals to get in.

Looks like the 1 seed is no longer locked up.

Leave the WCC stuff to your other board please.

You should proofread your comments too

Maybe we shouldn’t assume anything because we don’t know. Let’s be happy our first team all conference player is back. Hopefully he has a renewed energy and focus. Time will tell…

Not for a bench guy who makes little impact in the floor. PS was right to pull him. I tried to watch Nicks F1 but the camera angle was so bad you couldn’t see anything. It didn’t like like he got him in the head/neck area. I think he was frustrated with his play and the illegal screen he was getting hit with. The Trail official looked like he was going with an illegal screen at first.

That T was not for hanging on the rim. That would only be a 1 shot Class B technical. He got in the face of a kid from Bryant and talked s*it to his face. Which is a 2 shot T. And also why he got out directly to the bench

Good win? Campbell is 3-7 in D1 games. Just be consistent.

Honestly Dont care if 504 ppl show up. If he makes us a winner it’s good by me

I’m not saying the other 3 don’t have a shot but us and Charleston are the clear favorites. I really wish we could get an awesome crowd on 12/31

Man it would’ve been cool to get this one but we just didn’t make plays down the stretch. The Conway charge play was super close. I wish he was more aggressive and just tried to finish. Agree with the late game mistakes that can’t happen. But I did like that they weren’t due to a lack of hustle. I know PS was upset that some of the bench guys didn’t play well but I thought Paar was really good off the bench and this is the exact game we need him for. Charles’ limited minutes (specifically 2H) are what we can’t have happen against an all-conference big man. In the grand scheme, this game doesn’t matter at all. My big takeaway is we are getting better since the start of the non-conf. This team has looked uninterested in previous games and I felt like this was one that they knew the lights were on and wanted to play well. Not necessarily the best thing but may be true. The one positive of the injuries is that we get to see Conway work though his mistakes and get minutes instead of getting benched. I feel like he’s been getting better every game and will be a real piece come march. Conference play is around the corner and I feel like it’s a 2 horse race. 12/31 will be circled on the calendar and we will know what this team is made of right before the ball drops.

Louisville athletics have had their fair share of issues the last decade.
