Honestly I’ve not seen the determination and locked in focus needed to win the Tourney. You have to bring it 3-4 games in a row and our roller coaster nature would suggest we can’t pull that off. We’ll need Teague to put us on his back with solid and consistent contributions from the other guys.

I doubt desire to win is a problem in itself. You have to turn the wanting to win into intensity and focused effort, not just give effort in the game but listen to the staff and be intense as they prep for each game. Only way to really respond in the game and use that effort effectively. Coleman is a great example. His activity is without the focus and direction that would save his ass from a wild effort that misses the point.

You know I didn’t say that! Same guys are always complaining about the players the coaches. Every win it’s never how good the Cards played always how poor the other teams are. Is it ok if I don’t agree with your view. Same guys saying the same things all the time. That’s true but we kind of like BSU Kid in an endearing way!!😜

I think if we can win the West we have a team that can take the tourney. The next game will be a real task as even though Toledo has been a disappointment this season having a strong front court will be hard for us to match up with. while no one thinks we have depth our subs have done lots more than Toledo's which to me looks like the way to win there.

You guys have become so immune to pathetic.

Who surged through the new year and peaked in February and March and ultimately won the hardware or hung a REAL banner. "surged", "hardware", "hung" all in one sentence. Are you trying to turn this into another juvenile Longwood thread?

Some negative so called fans have been predicting imminent collapse. At least give some cred that the team seems to have defied that prediction. We have tough games ahead so maybe you will yet have reason to rejoice our losses, I'd rather not. Hey, look at the bright side. If this was our "horrible" effort, I see some chance we may get back to our "mediocre" form and cover the spread in those games. 2 more wins if we do!

4 seed means we see the top dog real soon. Might not be much difference between 1 & 2 this year

I'm not familiar with BG's basketball program. What is the key to their rise in the last two years? - A new coach and staff?
- The addition of the Stroh Center?
- Are they recruiting differently than in the past?
What is it?

Their coach started his coaching career at Longwood. That’s why....

Athletics is apparently "satisfied" with Whitford's record.
I expect an "extension."
Consider the value that BSU is getting. The lowest paid coach in the MAC that averages about 18 wins per season, finishes middle or better in the division, and wins an occasional MAC Tournament game.
Quite the recipe for Meh.
