Glyn Turner, one of our former players, is an assistant on the coaching staff at Houghton

[wake2cb]

....and glyn turner was horrible so that tells us nothing

[thepostman]

glyn turner wasn't horrible....i mean he wasn't one of our star players of course but he did a lot of the little things that every team needs....every team needs a hustle type player and he was that for us for sure, especially the year we won the bsc championship

[kel varson]

Glynn Turner would help this year's team immensly.

[thepostman]

Glynn Turner would help this year's team immensly.

yes he would, players like him are needed on all teams....i don't know who that player will be this year...if we are going to make any noise in the big south this year somebody has got to step up and do the little things...we have scorers, but do we have any players willing to do the little things...Turner did that for us...we will just wait and see who steps up and provides that kind of energy and effort on a nightly basis without getting much recognition

[whmatthews]

Turner was the mail man, because he delivered (and he worked at the campus post office)

[wake2cb]

i think alex mclean is that big man that we need.....i am just trying to figure out why he does not start......he averages double digits and bring a strong body inside

[jmdickens]

I thouht alex starts????

[whmatthews]

He didn't start against Cinci because he was late for a team meeting, but I think he will start over Russ.

[jmdickens]

I hope so, he is actually the new guy to the team that has an impact, besides Brew when he plays.

[jmdickens]

Is anyone going to the game??

[Ed Dantes]

No video feed tonight?

[whmatthews]

I'm at home listening to it via the web. Sometimes Jerry Edwards will say something and sounds a little like Pat Robertson. Hopefully he's not drinking Robertson's Jesus shake. Larry just hit a 3 and Houghton retaliates and makes it 13-9 LU.

[whmatthews]

11:58 left, 15-11 LU
If the first half is gonna be this close, hopefully we can come out in the second half and do what we did to Cinci Christian.

[whmatthews]

McLean makes first free throw, misses second, Baker with the rebound back to McLean inside for two.

[whmatthews]

B.J. Jenkins hits a three, 21-11 LU

[whmatthews]

My first time doing play-by-play for the board... nobody is reading this. Too much college football on I guess.
10:50 left to play
B.J. Jenkins hits another three, 24-11 LU, 9-0 run, timeout by Houghton.

[whmatthews]

Liberty doing a full-court press, steals the ball, Ohman shoots and misses, Baker rebounds and is fouled.
Jenkins passes inside to Big Russ for two with a hook shot.
J. Holland drives in, makes the basket and gets fouled, and makes the free throw.
Flames lead 29-11 with a 14-0 run.
Ohman with a steal, passes down to Baker who passes to J. Holland who knocks down a three, 32-11.
Ball stolen by Holland and takes it the distance for a layup. 34-11 with 9 minutes left.

[whmatthews]

And I'm done... I'm gonna listen to the game but the Wake/Maryland game is coming on now.

[whmatthews]

5:30 left, 42-14 LU lead.

[whmatthews]

Blair moves to the 8th sport for Big South scorers, needs 29 points tonight too move into another position as far as Liberty goes. The way it looks right now he definately has a shot... it's getting ridiculous now.

[whmatthews]

At the half LU 53-18
McLean leads all scorers with 15, Blair has 14.

Where's the best place to get live stats?

Oh no, what did Edwards say? And Pat took that shake off the market.
