It's North Alabama we are playing tomorrow.

And this is why I shouldn't post before finishing my morning coffee. I was even looking at the North Alabama info....

The Ole Men's Club will be there in full force to coach them up!

If you think of it, check to see if Keegan McDowell is with the team on the sidelines. I'm curious to see if my theory about him not transferring til after this semester is right. He is still on the roster.

We'll try, oldflame, but I don't know if anybody in our club has eye sight that good. Maybe Ballcoach can bring his military issue binoculars.

I thought the problem with most of us was seeing close up, not far away. After cataract surgery in both eyes, my distance vision is 20/20, but I need reading glasses for fine print. If Keegan still has his platinum blonde dye job, he shouldn't be too hard to spot.

Caleb is starting to make the leap. It began a couple games ago and just keeps going. That dunk and 3 were really nice.

LSU exposed our weakness on defence. You can drive the basket. Teams like N Alabama won't beat us with it but come March need to improve.

Dot Richardson needs a raise cause she’s at every basketball game. She’s a true supporter. She’s probably at all the football games too if I were betting, it’s just easy to spot her on tv every game.

We are playing bad, especially on offense.

Not playing well at all tonight

Good. We need to be coachable for next 60 days. Keep winning but keep grinding and staying humble. Blowouts are worthless in JAnuary.

Well one thing blowouts show is how far above and beyond you are of your conference foes. Unfortunately we are not blowing them all out. Does that mean we aren’t as good as we think, our style of play doesn’t lend itself to blowouts, or something else? That I don’t know the answer to.

Our style of play is a major factor. We're 17-1, and may not have trailed for a total of 40 minutes this season. Can anyone point me to finding this stat? My Google skills failed me.

Tonight we didn't hit our shots, like we should have, especially behind the arc.

We slept-walked a bit tonight. It seemed like when UNA made their run we were doing a lot of ISOs on the offensive end. I know defense is first with this team, but we go stretches of some really pretty offense. I wish we could stick to it more consistently.

Liberty withstands UNA’s 2nd half run to move to 3-0 in ASUN play

Oldflame, McDowell was definitely there on the sidelines, as you predicted. He and two others were sitting on the baseline next to the bench and were wearing gray pants and navy polos.

Thanks Cider. That pretty much confirms that he is looking to graduate this Spring and then transfer. I have a feeling he will be a graduate student at W&M next Fall. They currently have 2 scholarships available and his older brother Quinn is a semi-legend there.

Cannot overstate how unusual and extremely classy the way Ritchie has handled this situation is. I would estimate at least half of the coaches in D1 would have told Keegan to clean out his locker immediatly and not let the locker room door hit him in the a** on the way out.

I could be mistaken, but I did not see Keegan there. I asked a couple others who were also at the game, and they didn't see him either.
