Making a very rare appearance in the Vines Center tomorrow night. Looking forward to seeing this team play and spending the weekend in the burg. Haven't been to a home basketball game in years.

I'm jealous. This team is ridiculously fun to watch. I'd love to hear the banter with the inevitable crew that will be aseembled in your row.

Rare for us, the difference in the game was our 14 offensive rebounds, 8 of them by Scottie, who finished with 14 boards total and 12 points. Keep in mind we often send only one man (usually Scottie) to the offensive boards, so that was some serious work.

Good win tonight. The FGCU team has had the talent all season. They are getting better as a unit as the season progresses.

Nice crowd. There's a new norm for basketball games. The students are talking about the games throughout the week. It is becoming an event again. The crowd involvement and awareness needs a little push, but it will come in time.

Solid win. These guys have been improving every week. Knew that game wasnt going to be easy.

Huge game up next. Have to win it to have any shot at the 1 seed. Im still not sure we can beat them but we shall see.

Fun game to watch in person. Should have won by 15, give FGCU some credit as they wouldn't go away. Thought the atmosphere was ok, but not great. I guess I am so spoiled from watching so many games in Cameron. I don't think the crowd stood up one time and chanted defense or really got into the game. Biggest reaction was for a t-shirt toss. Got to find a way to beat Lipscomb this week or in the conference tourney. NIT will be the worst we do but would love to see us in the big dance because I think we would cause some problems.
