Well, heck boys and girls.
Now I know why AMX walked.

Weird fouls on both sides. But that on Green defending Watts was very strange
I don’t see anything wrong with the offense. Giving up probably 80+ is a problem. This after giving up 50 plus in the second half last game.
Oh, fuck Greg Crampy.
Hell yeah swain!
Not done yet..
This x team needs to get a lot tougher. I know that’s cliche to say, but geesh
No shit.Quote:

Got to figure out how to stop points in the paint.
Getting dominated by a dude in a buy game is probably a sign that you need to hit the weights a little more.Quote:

Well sh#$. All I can say is that this just another step in the journey.
Swain doesn’t box out, and Oakland makes x pay.
If ousmane doesn’t figure out how to play without fouling, x is going to have a lot of trouble moving forward.
Better to be good in March than in November.
But you have to be good enough in November.
Very disappointing when we were 15 pt favorites.
On to the next one. (Good try Swain)
Oh, so close. Guess it’s back to being “nice” little Xavier.
Right Paul?
The team will grow from this. Unlike Steele coached teams, it’ll look better in a month or two
I really like Greg Kampe, so I'm happy for him.
I think I'll leave it at that for tonight.
Absolutely! THAT is the key. We just saw the clay before it has been fully worked.Quote:

I hate to see a home loss but lots this team can take away from tonight.
Overall, this is the type of game this young Muskie team needed. I view this loss as better preparation for Houston than the easy win I thought was in the bag for Xavier.
Yeah, good win. He deserves it.Quote:

Yep, and chucking 23 treys is not a good answer. Need to fake shots, and drive, trusting teammates to move to the boards. When they did this in 2nd half, ending up with 21 second chance points.Quote:

We're going to need to get some wins vs. the heavy-weights on our schedule. Have to get a couple of them plus UC.
Is Townsend a transfer from a power school? I'd be surprised if he's Oakland home grown. That dude can play. Watts came from Michigan St.
So sorry for your loss Spartansburg. :)Quote:

Maybe it’s a wake up call for the rest of the season. Also the FT numbers may look better but when it mattered most they missed the front end of back to back 1 and 1s.Quote:

It's definitely a bad loss.
And I thought Des improved his jumper? Brick city.
Homegrown third year junior from Oxford, MI.Quote:

He’s put in a tough spot. Goes from 8th man to being team leader. He’s having a hell of a sophomore year outside of the expectations of leading this teamQuote:

I was thinking we could have used Freemantle tonight but then I remembered he can't guard me.
It's a great point. Mack sought out true power forwards. Not saying he was better, but he definitely recruited that type of player.Quote:

I miss Tyrique.
It’s infuriating that this continues to be a holdover from the Steele era.Quote:

Take it easy. His stat line was bonkers, but remember Jason Carter was offered a scholarship based on one good game vs X.Quote:
