DD played great on both sides of the ball. He was covering their best player for most of the game.

Mark my word, he will be one of the great ones in the Valley by his Jr. year.
SM What guts!!!! All you haters out there owe this team an apology.
The Bandwagon is out and running and is ready to start heading on the Highway. DO not bother to get on if you're joining us now. This team will have to be reckoned with come 2nd half of the season."Educate and inform the whole mass of the people...they are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty."

[QUOTE=SaintLouBrave22;100555]Did Will Egolf = Turnaround?
OR did Coach just finally figure out who his players are and what players to play together...
Will got every chance in the world last year and he showed nothing. He got a few minutes early this year and again...nothing. Lets hope the light has been turned on. Sometimes guys just start to get it.
The backup QB is always the fan fav when the starter is struggling. Many were calling for WE when BU looked bad. EASY call. Coach Les knows what he has better then any one of us.
He has seen something from WE in practice and this was a good week to see, AGAIN, if Will made the most of his chance. Looks like he FINALLY did and lets hope it snowballs.
Nothing personal but its getting old hearing guys claim they new Will could do it. Its almost the "blind squirrel" adage. Of course he has the ability and EVENTUALLY it had to surface. Just as the blind squirrel will eventually find the nut.
Good job will and way to use him when you thought he was ready COACH LES.

Ahh what a great win. That's about as good as we played last season, with a couple more 3's added in from JC or Ruffin. I think the D was still a little slow getting out on the perimeter shots but thankfully Richmond wasn't hot. Overall, all this team needed was to shoot better and limit the turnovers and they did exactly that. I think SM's foot will be fine if he can go all out like that in 3 straight games. Give that foot 3 or 4 days break in between the rest of the games and he'll be fine. Now just need to get Warren healthy and maybe give Sticks a look or 2 Saturday. It worked switching it up with Egolf.

Regardless of our results the one thing we are doing so much better is REBOUNDING!!!!!! WE, TW, TB, SS, CR, DD and EM all really like to go after the ball. I love it!"Educate and inform the whole mass of the people...they are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty."

Defence Giddings 2 points, Duinker 6 points, only 2 of these
8 were while SS was in and that was the 2 FT's by Giddings
He had some good knock outs to his teammates on the offence boards that turned into second chance points
I think you underrated his game tonight my friend, if it was not for his play the game may of gone the other way. Good game for #54 and BU tonightThere is no team in the the MVC that can match up to us the whole game, if our bigs come to play! BU will win the the MVC this year!

I've been holding off doing much posting the past 3 days. I had a hard time watching this team the first 2 games of the tournament. Too many bad lob crosscourt passes, blown layups, etc. So I wanted to wait until this game to vent, if things didn't look better. Now I feel much better, but know a team this young and playing without their top returnee, will have their ups and downs. Hopefully as the season progresses it will be mostly ups.
Enjoy Dick Versace's comments during the broadcast. He has been telling it like it is, as when he said when Sam S got called for an illegal screen, after 5 years he should know what he can get by with. This team has way too many of those fouls. I might have to agree with the students when they say most of the crowd is lifeless at times. When BU got their first 15 point lead and there was a timeout the camera panned behind the BU bench to show the crowd. If they weren't wearing red I would have thought they were Richmond fans.What part of illegal don't you understand?

Totally agree.
This coaching staff needs to work the team PLANTING screens. We seem to set screens... but unset them - leaving them un-planted, therefore - whistled for moving screens.

As for the crowd, I think mostly it is just an age thing and not lack of enthusiasm. I can't say for certain not having been there, but I suspect a large percentage are older, retired folks who can travel to Florida. My father is no less a Bradley fan than he was forty years ago, based on my conversations with him, but at his age he is not making much noise or even standing very long at the games.

My god, did everyone see that post move Egolf made at the opening of the game..? I'm not even sure Pat had that in his arsenal...
Along w/ the comment about Sam, I think I'd like to mention Theron...he took Harper, a much bigger player to the cleaners most of the night leaving him greatly ineffective before he finally fouled out.
BTW...Indiana State lost another home game tonight and SIU lost to Western Kentucky by 9....might I mention a former BU recruit Stephon Pettigrew went 20 and 9 for the Hilltoppers.
