7 things to know

We're suddenly trending upwards and beating GW on the road would continue the momentum forward.

Agreed!

Hoffman in the game early and hits a 3...

Flames leading at the half, 33-28.

Flames extend to a 43-29 lead....

If anyone knows who these guys are on the floor let me know... Because these are not the Flames that lost 12 in a row... Cabbil, Homesley, Maxwell, AC and Dawson are balling!

Dawson with the big time facial jam over a GW Defender!

Wow. This is rather impressive.

Flames win! 69-55. Maybe most complete game yet, now won 3 in a row. Guys are gaining confidence and looking good!

I love watching this team play! Its tough getting through some of the sloppy play at times but love their fight! Great win and what a turnaround. Hope they finish the season strong.

Cabbil goes 0-8 and LU still WINS on the road.

It only takes a little push to get a snowball rolling down the mountain Flamerz...

Who would have thunk this? The Vines will get bigger and louder if this continues

It has been so enjoyable go see this team grow. McKay is doing a heck of a job with these guys.

I would love for the following 3 things to happen before next Tuesdays game vs Winthop in the Vines:
1 #beatpresby
2 get some savvy students to start a word of mouth and social media campaign for their fellow students to come.
3 for Jerry to promote coming in next Mondays Convo and then come out to the game himself.

I would love a rockin crowd to get behind this coach and team and then keep it rollin.

Congrats on the win. It must be nice to have a coach and staff who have an idea as to what the heck they are doing. What Holtmann built in three years is now completely shot to hades. Back to Chuck-led mediocrity in the one sport we seemed to start being competitive in on a yearly basis.

Great team win, loved kemrite tonite!

I see! I hope it continues. These guys are playing hungry and scrappy.

It helps when a player on the opposing team (Who is #5 for your team?) just launches up random shots whenever one finger touches the ball.

Jeff Barber should get AD of the Year Award for making a coaching change with men's basketball.

I remember getting bashed by almost everyone this board when i brought up McKay as the perfect fit as Layers replacement....the team is really coming together!!

Hiring McKay again scared me. It still does but I'm still enjoying the ride.
