What a game! What an atmosphere! Congrats to the team, coaches and fans for bringing some excitement back to the Green House!

Shit bout to get real.

Are students allowed in free to all sporting events or do they have to pay like at other Universities? If free, just the students could fill up the RG and no tickets would be available for general admission.

I thought they would be favored since they beat us handily. Maybe the oddsmakers knew the crowd would be large because many folks wanted to come and check out the new shatters.

I did not watch the game but 3 catches for 78 yards in an all-star game is pretty good.

NFLPA Collegiate Bowl – The Premiere CFB All-Star Game

In last night's game, Brown was 6-13 from the FT line and scored 26 total points. His points came at a point-blank range under the basket. I would like to see Hart and Morman under there with him. If he even thinks about shooting or passing off, foul the heck out of him. That would give Haase and Pick a rest and cut down on their fouls. Put him on the line where he was around 50% rather than let him score a sure two.

Neither I nor anyone else knows who will be victorious but one thing I do know. It has been great to be able to enjoy basketball again. For the past few years, things have been dead from the end of football till Sring practice and the baseball season. I did not want to watch our basketball team often get embarrassed.

The complete turnaround of basketball I call the "Miracle on 4th Street.' Most all figured Jay's new players would be better than last year's "Shock Troops, but we had no idea how much. Well, we know now. Thank you, Jay and our Athletic Director, for letting Jay keep his job.

So tomorrow's game is significant, of course, and a loss would hurt, but it won't ruin the season for me. We are going to win and put the icing on the cake. We are hoping for a sell-out.

USMer from early 70’s here. So what is Dub City? Don’t live in the area but coming to the game tomorrow. I know when I hand my wife that white T shirt to wear with Dub City, I’ll be asked what’s the meaning. Now I can guess “W” for winning and something else for back in my time there but prefer to know in case she fact checks me. Thanks.

Always interesting to hear a former player interview a coach. Great job by my buddy Marchant!!!

1. Really happy with the scrimmage this weekend.

2. Hasn't decided on a #2 or #3 starter yet.

3. He is settled at every position except for 2nd base. That is still a battle.

4. Blake Johnson will start at catcher

There is not much unknown about this squad with so many returners.

I watched the first half of the Marshall vs. Louisiana game on ESPN+. I was annoyed when the announcer stated that the match-up was with the 2 best teams in the SBC. The reasoning was both beat USM.

I say 75-62 usm
