We play at 1 today. No let downs!
Anyone else notice that the WCU loss to us on Wednesday basically killed their posting activity. It came alive with hope after the Mercer win, and then came crashing back to earth when the refs stole the game from them at Samford. Actually, many of their fans were gracious and complimentary. I’m just stirring the pot. I wasn’t aware that Samford gets the benefit of no calls on fouls, however. I guess when you win a lot the opponents find something to bitch about. I wouldn’t know what it’s like to be considered a conference favorite, we haven’t won a lot. Well, except for that brilliant review at Furman at the start of the second quarter that caused Furman to give up like 35 or 38 straight points.

If the pregame is any indication, the broadcast is going to suck. Camera didn’t even get the rim into the picture. Sounds like the announcers are calling the game from their garage with a ham radio.

One would think that by this point in the season, Achor would be able to understand the difference between a good foul and a bad one. Clearly he doesn't.

Not seeing the Samford preference from the officials thus far.

Basketball has gotten to be a pansy sport.

Achor with two fouls in less than five minutes. We won't see much more of him this half.

Very unprofessional atmosphere at Mercer. Shot clock doesn't work. One of the camera angles has the quality like what you might have seen in the '70s. Audio is awful. It's like the Mercer folks didn't realize there was a basketball game today.

Mercer appears to be running on a shoe string budget. Don’t often see a HC quit to be a OC at an average D1 program. I’m about to join the ETSU fans and say we need to look for a new conference.

We are allowing a inferior team to hang around here. We need to deliver a few punches and create some distance.

Guy is throwing the ball to a teammate and Samford steals it and the ref says he called a timeout. I saw no timeout. He must have said it as he threw it.
