Man Dawson is a turnover machine.

Well, I suspect Ritchie is a lot happier with the defense so far tonight. Halftime score Liberty 26 Longwood 17.

The first thing he said at halftime. Weve turned the ball over every possible way. Dawson is a good player he just needs to stop trying to do too much and the turnovers will go down.

Guys. Dawson is the GOAT.
All jokes aside it's nice to see our defense is back.

To be fair, Dawson has 3 TOs, but also has 4 assists. Cabbil also has 3 TOs, with only 2 assists.

Just an embarrassing display down the stretch. We are so tough to watch this year. There's just so many mental mistakes.

At this point, an ugly win is just fine with me.

If you watched it you would know why I say that. I'll take a win but it was brutal down the stretch. That last play was not a foul so the result was right but I don't think the explanation was correct.

4 turnovers but was 5-6 for 14 points, 9 rebounds, 5 assists and a win. What a horrible game for Dawson.

That was a good defensive effort for an entire game, definitely something to build on.

I didn't say horrible game. We just need him to protect the ball more. That last turnover was just dumb. Cabbil is turning over as well but he's a true frosh. I'm just saying if we win any games he has be great and protect the rock better. I love both players and I think they are going to be a dynamic backcourt duo for 3 years.

Ugly win indeed, largely because Maxwell had more turnovers (6) than points (4). Longwood brought quite a few fans, who got very vocal at the end of the game, but left disappointed. The 6'8' 255 pound Tulane transfer had his way with Maxwell, but we still squeaked out a win.

This is now fun for me.
Dawson. The GOAT of liberty basketball!
Glad we pulled out the win bit the self inflected turnovers by the entire team needs to stop. We won which is nice but nothing bothers me more than being sloppy with the ball.

You do realize that besides him no one can create a shot for anyone else on the team. Cabbil basically can get the ball across half court and score on his own but doesnt demand the respect of an additional defender and Fields doesnt shoot well enough to demand a defender glued to him and is a average finisher going to the rim at best. So Dawson who has handle can break down defenses and get in the paint does take risks but he has the ball in his hands alot. Id like to see his turnovers go down but its a process whats this his 8th or 9th game in 2 years. Im sure he will get it together. Glad we won more than anything.

In
concession stand news (which may be of interest to only Purple), they tried selling a new item last night:
french fries topped with nacho cheese & jalapeños
I was pretty excited to see this on display, because in my 30 years of going to LU basketball games I've never seen a jalapeño inside the Vines Center or the Schilling Center. When I asked if the jalapeños could be added to an order of nachos, they said, "No, they are just for the french fries."
I was like

I love your passion. At this point I'm just having fun getting you spun up.
I like Dawson and am glad he is a flame. I'm just having a little fun at your expense.

7-24. No tourney wins.
Posted October 29th.
I'd like to point out that minus the Coastal win. I'm pretty much on the money so far.
