[quote="kingaling42"]I figured as much, but had to ask!

Troy- because a mean post player really helps with a team like VMI??? Seriously, get a clue...[/quote

Exactly

Horrible day for LU athletics. This, baseball looses to JMU 11-2, and softball looses to Tenn 13-1.

You are so dead on...Its funny...I just texted someone and said...McKay's post game will be Lamont Winters, Armon Jones, Russ Monroe, and Alex McLean are not coming through that door...

I am still waiting for these so called basketball experts who think a post presence would not matter in this game to look up Alex's stats in the games vs. VMI the last 2 years he played with this VMI run and gun style..

VMI only scored like 7 points the final 5 mins, they had almost all of the subs out the final 4 minutes- I know this game stings but they really did let up off of the gas the final 5 mins to play if you look at it objectively...

NO - what IS classless though is CSU at the line with 17 secs to play, WU up 3- WU fans throw objects on the floor during the first CSU FT.. Now that's pretty classless.. & yes I know that's sorta off topic...

I heard from someone at the game that during one of the last time outs that Richie just sat there and the assistant coaches talked to the players..

What a quitter! Way to set an good example for your players... He's our savior

A mean post player would defiently set a tone that liberty wasnt playing with tonite..I saw several forays into the lane by VMI and it looked as if they where shopping in victoria secrete.

The last 8 minutes of the game we weren't playing much defense, and when we had a handle on the rebounds, we seemed to hand the ball to the closest Keydet. I'm not going after Baucom because we played like crap.

scoring is not classless to me..the guys work hard to play and if you think UNC would feel bad about putting up 120 on dook puhlease...its division 1 basketball..and confidence is BIG ..right now the vmi guys are PUMPED..their moxie is off the charts right now big win for them and my hat goes off to them. Liberty will be back we got talent but defiently need an attitude adjustment of some sort...

Yep 10 points by CSU in the 2nd half to WU's 38 leads to a 57-52 WU win- but does WU's "basketball tradition" include throwing things on the floor during the opposing teams free throws when the game's still in the balance?? That's pretty lame, be a REALIST about that too...

HA! In the 5 minutes it took me to get home all of the boo-birds have crawled out of their holes. What are you guys even talking about? Has anyone here ever doubted Alex McLean's value in the post? I would love for you to find one statement on this board to the contrary, because I don't believe it exists, and if it does, I would love to tell that person that they're an idiot. Where have you guys been? Have you lit up your inthebeginning bat signal yet?

Haha. Dude, get real. Someone dropped a pizza box and crust rolled on the floor. It wasn't intentional.

Pretty ugly, couldn't say I didn't see it coming, didn't listen to the game or watch the live stats, just had a feeling. If you can say there is such a thing as a good loss, this might be one, we will see. Young team, late in the year, time to re-focus. Anyone know why RMK was upset, beside the obvious spanking?

a coastal fan talking crap?? when is the last time your basketball team has done anything?? at least the unca guy has a place to talk...get out of here you freaking troll

with that said...how the heck do you not come out for this game and play hard?? VMI made a ton of tough shots and then our guys went and hid in a hole...

Jesse is so important for this team and bringing the energy level up...i hope he gets better soon

I couldn't tell what it was. One of the refs was holding him back.
