We have almost a week to figure out what went wrong last night and get back on track. I have faith Coach Nagy will figure it out.

I love that we came in and took care of business. We didn't play down to the level of our opponent like we have in most of our HL games this year. And we didn't completely piss away our big lead. That is going to come back to haunt us eventually this season if we keep blowing big leads. Glad we were able to endure their runs and then rebuild the lead each time tonight.

Our defense was bad at the beginning of last year and improved as the year went on. Our defense will improve this year too. If you really look at our roster tonight, we played 1 starter from last year that is healthy, Parker. Grant is out of shape from not doing anything for the last 7 weeks. Hughes barely played last year. Tye and Vest really didn't play except for mop up minutes last year. Winchester hasn't played ball in 2 years. Lou hasn't played ball in 3 years. Hall was playing his first ever D1 game. Our best returning player was suspended and the guy we want at the point isn't eligible until mid December. Given all of that we should be 2-1 right now instead of 0-3. The guys will gel as a team. The defense will improve. The offense will improve. It's going to be a rebuilding year no matter what but we can still have a respectable team before the year is out.

This could be good for us. Only time will tell. With real management maybe things will finally get organized on game days. Real management will hopefully have parking better organized, ticket office running smoother, and all concession stands open.

Thanks Big D. I appreciate the feedback.But all I want to say is why can't we have more 10 teams. When a team leaves we add one. We know that at some point of time a team would leave us if it is good. We all knew Butler would and there have been speculations about Valpo also. We don't always need to attract similar conferences, go to the conferences ranked below us and find their improving and similar schools, I am sure they want to move up same way as members from conference like ours would like to move up. Oakland turned out good and so did NKU, why not others. We have been trying to add more than 1 at a time. We really wanted to add Murray State and Belmont at the same time we added NKU. The conference wasted too much time on those 2. I don't know what will happen after the MVC announces it's new members. WSU just needs to focus on itself. If we want the HL to be better or if we want to move to a better conference, the easiest way to achieve either goal is to make our program the best program in the conference. We blew a big opportunity the last several years after Butler left. They left a void at the top of the conference. Valpo took control of the conference and made themselves much more appealing. We didn't. We had 3 chances to go Dancing and lost in the conference finals each time. If we had 3 NCAA appearances under our belt in the last 5 years, we would be the school getting courted. We need to learn from that. If Valpo leaves, the HL is going to be weaker. All that means for us is we need to capitalize on that and start taking care of business. This isn't going to be our only chance to move up in the basketball world. Conference realignments happens every few years. We need to make ourselves more appealing for the next go round.

Why the hell didn't we foul? With as much time was left there, you try an force the turnover there like they were close to doing there.. Now we have to foul No you don't. Foul quick and hope they miss the FTs so you have a chance to score. We just gave up several seconds we could have used.
