Given how much UNH has bribed the playoff committee in the past, you gotta think there's money in the budget for the officials too!

The back and forth of this game reminded me a little of that wild Coastal Carolina OT win years and years ago. Kudos to the kids for never giving up on it even though they kept allowing scores. Bad news though...this just gave UNH the tiebreaker for a playoff bid over us if it comes down to that. IYKYK

Geez, I woke up expecting this place to be burned to the ground only to find balloons and presents (well, sort of). I guess we put the torches down for this week?

My biggest surprise is that the ‘Fire Pete’ thread hasn’t been started. I thought that’s how it worked around here.

The 3 games they lost on Saturday could have very easily been wins. They sorta hit a wall when they'd get to 17-18 points and had a 5-6 point lead. A few more service errors than on Friday and a couple of missed opportunities, especially when up big in Game 3 doomed them. But it's still nice to walk into an SEC school and serve notice (pun intended) that we're a force. I don't know how anyone gets in front of some of these kill attempts to dig them. These girls just crush the ball.

As always, we can't have nice things. But at least this happened now rather than a few games into the season when a rotation has been set and people are settling into their roles. At least there's plenty of time to get everyone adjusted and figure out a rotation. This Canada trip came at a good time to get them some competition and allow the new guys to develop chemistry.

Quoting @RundaPower from Canada thread and moving this to the right thread: If you are suggesting that there is a possibility of others from the program involved, don’t. This is an Isolated incident according to the deposition. Has nothing to do with any other person in the program. I’m not suggesting that at all. That would be unethical. I was having a discussion about this with someone over the weekend and was saying that it’s possible someone might start asking about the program given the time between incident and charges. Due process and PR/public opinion are two different things and I’m just hoping that there isn’t anything lying beneath that someone could sniff out.

Negative. I haven’t been able to follow any of this trip other than to know we’re 3-0. Belongs in the Conway thread anyway but I’m nervous about what other layers there could be with that issue and thus lead to more shockwaves.

If you think you were shocked before, hoooo boy.

Kinda figured we'd get Houston for that first game. Better bring the big-boy pants for that one. As far as the conference schedule goes, they must have an inkling over who the top teams may end up being so for NET purposes, they try to get the best to play a pair against each other. The one I don't like is having to play Hofstra only on the road. But if it means we don't have to play Drexel at their bandbox, then I'll take the push.

I suspect based on this continued charade that this is a ‘me-first’ player. Those can become other schools’ problems. If I’m wrong, so be it. But it seems like this one is interested in attention.

A home game that close to Xmas that I can attend? Guess I know where I’ll be that day. So…Bryant neutral, at Colorado, Nicholls home. Haven’t heard any others trickle out so far.

I'll definitely be rooting for him. He graduated from here and had a ton of high-major interest. How could he turn down that opportunity? And now he's in a great situation where he doesn't have to be be the man every night. With the talent that KU has, teams may lose track of him and he can get 12-15 per night with some games in the 20's.

May not have been one of the 10 best in the era but will always have a place in my book somewhere is Bilal Dixon. Could have transferred anywhere but he comes to us after that 1-31 season. Didn't put up the biggest of numbers but was a solid, veteran presence that a bunch of young guys needed and helped set the foundation for the 25-win season in 2013-14.
