Yah...some touchy ones

Plus we are getting a few nice bounces off the rim for rebounds although we are battling hard down there
 
Jim day is so annoying. I was flabbergasted that he got the reds play by play job and now hes calling cats games?!
 
About 5 straight minutes of horrendous passing just about turned the game around. Geesh! I thought we were going to see a full line change.
 
If we get even half that Scott moving forward I think our team will surprise some people this year.
 
I'm still not sure we're actually good, and while NKU isn't top tier competition, this was another nice win.

I don't fully understand how this group is pulling it off, but Cronin deserves some credit for the direction they're trending.

Next two games are very tough, and I'd happily take a split. Even 0-2 isn't the end of the world although it would cut down on our margin of error to make the tournament.

Can't believe it, but I really thought we may miss the tournament this year. That seems pretty unlikely with how they're playing right now, and even moreso with the areas for improvement that are attainable.

Keith Williams producing like he has been has been a borderline revelation. Shocked to see him perform like this, and hopefully he continues to improve.
 
On top of Scott's career night, Nsoseme and Brooks both looked a class above NKU's bigs as well. Their "superstar" Macdonald was nothing less of shook all night and would be right there with Sam Martin on our depth chart. Also a very efficient night from Jenifer as well.

Agree it’s hard to tell exactly what we have although it’s more than I thought we had after a couple games that’s for sure. I have to tip my cap to Cronin and team since first couple of games.

The 3 bigs really did steal the show tonight. 11-17 shooting. 20 boards. 4 blocks. 16-17 from the line (are you kidding me). 38 points. More assists than turnovers and only 3 fouls.
 
was looking over the box score and we gave up 16 offensive boards to nku. thats completely unacceptable. thats an OR% of 40. nku averages 25%.


3 straight games giving up 36% or higher.



if we put up that kind of effort on the glass vs xavier its gonna be a long afternoon.



Brooks has 16 rebounds in his last 98 minutes played (5 games). Nsoseme has 16 in his last 40 minutes played.
