Is #10 for Wofford a Hasidic Jewish player?

77, how is the attendance there compared to last year? Looks like the crowds have been pretty good all day long.

Arena has slowly been filling up all day. Chatt and Wofford fans replaced the G and ETSU groups. Now the place is turning purple with a pretty steady stream of folks coming in. Once this game is over, putting on my navy hoodie to be the blue dot in a purple sea. Place could be full by 8pm.

Wofford’s hot shooting against us didn’t show up tonight. Throwing up bricks all night. Can’t blame the coach, they have wide open looks, just not falling for them. ETSU/UTC will be the game of the acronym schools in the semis.
I just don’t see this half of the bracket winning it all.

Looks like the Chatt folks left to go celebrate their win. HCBM and 3 assistants are at the baseline table to watch the nightcap.
The team just took the top row of the nose bleed section, just below one of the video boards.

If it wasn’t enough to suffer through an interview of WCU players (cringe cheesy), they replayed it during the middle of FU/WCU. Am I misreading this WCU love-fest? Is this an indication the SoCon has anointed WCU the conference champion before the conference championship tournament even tipped off? It is all about selling tickets and getting the best team in the dance. Anyone want to guess who the SoCon thinks has the most talented team in the SoCon?

Doesn’t look like it to me. They just called Woolbright for a blocking foul and he was clearly set.

WCU is a solid team, for about a half. If the game was only 29 minutes, they’d be the one seed. Unfortunately, most teams play a full 40.

You saw the same thing that all of the Western fans saw.
The consistent acts of the refs this week has been their inconsistencies between the calls in different games. Yesterday that was a charge, tonight it's a block. It was even worse between the women's and men's games, as if there are two different rule books.

The announcer just said, it’s hard for the players or us to know what’s a fouls what isn’t a foul. Translation, the refs are inconsistent.
