Face it, the reality is we aren't good enough to beat the top dogs yet. I thought the new line up would be good but of course I was way off. Whit will need to go back to smith/Davis. Ugh. Moses will be a good player but he's still a freshman and he can't defend. Agreed. We are on the way, but still a couple of years away yet.

There is nothing wrong with seeing that. We will get there, just not yet.

Lol Cardfan is right, Valpo was a huge win but Toledo is a sub 500 in the mac so I would not call them a top dog

We were down just 3 ...and big turnovers. Got to say you have been right Cardfan...particularly the last few games. Turnover bug has killed us.
Weber is to limiting offensively...he can not get open and definitely can't create...Sellers is the better option overall!!

He should lose minutes.

I think the staff became enamored with Weber and killed Sellers confidence. Neither can play D and can not be on the court at the same time. Tricky but it might be time to flip flop the minutes and see how Weber reacts to coming off the bench.

I truly think Sellers is better than Weber....and hustles more than Weber! Weber seems to not want to do the tough work...I said Tyler would get 20...close!
With Teague next year with 20 pounds and a year understanding will help plus a true point guard

No excuses, Akron and Kent consistently find very good post players to go along with very good athletes. I get tired of the excuse making on this board. We are a middle tier Mac program and we recruit like it. You have to have an interior inforcer other teams worry about when playing you. We don't have it and the Akrons and the Kents take advantage of it.

So then how did Toledo beat Akron by 14? Buffalo lost to Akron, VCU, Duke, Iowa State, St. Bonaventure, and Old Dominion. Some pretty good teams in my opinion. Good to know you're educated about college basketball lol

I agree were missing prieces but good god some of you guys bash this team way too much on here whether it's about the play or recruiting. This is the most relevant the program has been in years.

Cards lose again, 73-64. Didn't give up, but didn't always play smart. Too many turnovers and missed shots, and less than great rebounding, especially offensively. The red and white do not get to the free throw line like many in the league. Even when getting the ball inside, the Cards still don't get to the line. Refs let the guys play today, so the game at least moved. Sometimes it seems as many on the court lose focus, thus the turnovers. With JD at the point, the play is faster. That could be a good thing, but wasn't today.
Time to get on a winning streak. It starts Tuesday night at Bowling Green.
Go Cards!

Good to know you're educated about college basketball lol The same way we beat Valpo, on that day the ball bounced Toledos way. If we play Valpo 10 times they are going to beat us 7 out of 10 times. Same goes with Toledo VS Akron. You cant take one games result and compare programs you have to look at the whole picture

Too many defensive lapses and turnovers. Akron and Kent both have superior athleticism...we don't. We have to start wining some recruiting battles soon. With that said, the future looks pretty bright to me. Get a legit PG and we can start competing for a championship.
