Sorry, all full here.

They are a perfect addition once we leave for ACC

Pass.

Looks like Butler is trying to end their season tonight, season started off well but they've been a mess the past month

Butler's starting PG was done for the season after 6 games, and the new starter is out sick tonight.

Xavier takes too many stupid shots and Carroll is a selfish player. This team should have been better.

For the third (?) year in a row, Butler does pretty well OOC and then proceeds to be a miserable mess

Shame on me for thinking it’d be different this year

 

[aceboon]

Butler should probably start putting together a list of HC candidates, Matta is never gonna get that thing going

 

[RuffRuff]

We'll be heading into the AP poll #2 in all likelihood. Zona plays @ BYU on the 26th. If they get knocked off, we get through Creighton, would be juicey to roll into the Garden ranked 1 against StJ.

 

[Waquoit]

I remember when Providence thought English was going to be the guy. One more year?

Emeka on the call for the Creighton Providence game on FS1

You beat me to it.

Emeka on the call for the Creighton Providence game on FS1

Is this his first game?

 

[Ctedgeman]

Is this his first game?

It sounded like it might be based on how the other guy was welcoming him to the broadcast

 

[SoFla Steve]

Is this his first game?

No, he's done at least one other. Same issue this time, too. It sounds like he's not miked up correctly.

 

[TRest]

English really getting creative with his lineups. Abandons all hope on playing defense.

 

[millertime7774]

You beat me to it.

Almost made a new thread - didn't know he was on the mic. The thing with him and Gomes was cool.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Providence's terrible defense is starting to annoy Emeka.

 

[superjohn]

Is Emeka speaking from a submarine?

 

[aceboon]

Providence looking like they are on pace to give up 90+ points again, they've got decent to above average athletes at every position, no reason they should be this bad at that end.

 

[gsmooth]

On a human level I don't ever wish for anyone to get fired, at least that's the case most of the times. I certainly don't wish that to happen to Kim English.
But if he did get fired (not trying to write that into existence), I would like Jamier Jones to consider going about 50 miles west for his transfer choice. He says he studies film of Stephon Castle.

 

[superjohn]

I really want Jamier Jones at UConn next season.

 

[BGesus4]

I really want Jamier Jones at UConn next season.

He’ll no doubt be on the market after English goes the way of the dodo

He’s what we had hoped Corey Floyd was

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Vaaks is really good.

I can't think of a team that delivers a haymaker right to their own face better than Providence. They are dominating a slow, unathletic Creighton team, and are up 7.

 

[Leebo]

Providence is allergic to using clock

 

[nelsonmuntz]

I like Zugic when I see him, but he is only averaging 13 mpg. I wonder what his problem is. Effort?

The K state L is a big wart on creightons OOC resume. Baylor fine whatever. Then it’s just the 3 Ls to top 10 teams but PC would be another big wart and could put them on the wrong side of the bubble.
