Re: vs. William & Mary (11/19)

The silver lining, this was probably about as bad as this team can play and we at least kept it competitive against a top 200 KenPom team. The past 4-5 years, starting 1-16 from 3pt and committing 18 turnovers would have resulted in a 30 point loss to that team. Still believe this is a top-5 team in...

Re: vs. William & Mary (11/19)

The only thing worse than shooting 1-12 from 3 is giving up on shooting them. But a couple of steals have us back to within 7. I'm fairly certain we aren't winning this game if we don't make a couple of threes. Why isn’t Wol getting minutes? Is he a defensive liability? He can at least sink some th...

Re: vs. Texas State (11/3)

Great win, this squad looks like they're going to be fun. We've got 3 super-athletic bigs, 4 athletic wings that can score... AND An All-MAC point guard! Holding your opponents to 19 points while only committing 3 turnovers in the 2nd half is a pretty good recipe for success. Looks like we'll run an...

Re: 2025 Basketball Portal

If that fills out the roster are we going guard heavy? Do we have enough bigs? I thin that puts us one over the scholarship limit 1 Kimbrough 6-0 JR Xfer 18.6p 45.6 3% 6.2a Leach 6-2 FR 2 Campbell 6-2 SR 14.9p 5r 39.4 3% Ruffin 6-5 SR Xfer 5.6p 2r 2.1a 31 3% Pardon 6-4 Fr .6p 3 Shackleford 6-4 SO X...

Re: 2025 Basketball Portal

Reese Potter from Miami is transferring to Kentucky. Bit of a surprise given that he came off the bench for Miami, but he is a big that can shoot it and is a native of Lexington.

He is basically what we hope Preston Squire can become.

Rashaun Agee is back in the portal. I imagine he's likely to stay high major but we can dream can't we??

Major Richaun Holmes vibes. Should be a walking double double in the MAC. We better Start saving up our extra $$ now and be ready to pitch into the NIL fund if we want to have him for more than 1 year :lol:

Re: 2025 Basketball Portal

6’0 G Jason Kimbrough Jr. from Highland CC has committed to BG. He averaged 18.6 points and 6.2 assists, along with 4 rebounds, as well as shooting 45.6% from three this season. Seems like a huge pickup for us. Looks like a combo guard who isn't afraid to pull it from anywhere. He and Campbell shou...

Re: 2025 Basketball Portal

Braelon Green is in the portal. For the life of me cannot figure out what that kid did in HS to come out with his recruiting profile. In an entire season where we had a starting PG miss the back half of MAC season, had our second guard play with broken hands all season, and had our 3rd guard miss t...

Re: 2025 Basketball Portal

Seems like the simple answer is to bring back the rule where transfers have to sit for a year.

Re: 2025-2026 Season

Not sure that’s a good thing. I’d prefer Butler back over Humphrey if given the choice. However, if Humphrey staying results in the unplayable bench players exiting I’m for it. 100% agree Guest. I love Butler as a 6th man, which I think is an ideal role for him. Humphrey did seem to bring some stea...

Re: MAC Tournament

Correct, we are most likely the 6 seed and playing Buffalo in the 630pm game, but could move into the 5 seed (130 game) and get Kent again if we win Saturday AND Miami loses at home to NIU.

Re: at NIU 3/1

Silver lining - in the grand scheme of things it doesn't impact our tourney seed all that much as even winning out didn't guarantee us getting above the #6 seed.

We are all but locked into the 6 seed now.

Re: Ball st 3/1

Even better news, with Central losing Friday night we officially control our own destiny to get to Cleveland.

We sit in the 9 seed currently, but winning our final 2 games would ensure we either a) jump WMU in the standings, or b) enter a tiebreaker scenario where we cannot be the odd team out
