Game 20: AT Duquesne University, Saturday, January 31st, 7 PM, NO TV

[Five Two]

My god, those 2 minutes watching may force me to watch the princess movie my girls are watching.

Don't have access to the game, but just checked the score on ESPN. PLEASE tell me that ESPN's feed is slow or something - does GMU really have 15 points at the half against a terrible Duquesne team??

We are just not a good team. I still wanna hold out hope that one day the kids/coaches will 'get it' but its just plainly obvoius that we are not going to get much better. I have no idea what's being preached/taught in practice, but it doesn't seem like anything new. Just rinse and repeat and hope for the best.

This is hideous basketball.

Jim, I think Mr. Naismith would take exception to you referring to this as basketball. We shot 14%, made 1 of 10 threes, managed only four baskets in 20 minutes, and committed 8 turnovers.

The fact that we are only down 7 is a testament to how bad our opponent is tonight.

 

[KAOriginal]

Does Edwards let Hewitt back on the plane/bus?

 

[gmutom]

My god, those 2 minutes watching may force me to watch the princess movie my girls are watching.

If they want to watch Frozen, you should tell them to watch our offense with you.

 

[Herndon]

So, just to clarify, this is it, right? This is the game that DEFINITELY means Hewitt is gone? The one that looked like a JV girl's HS game?

This is for sure it, right?

 

[hoops10]

We look crisp and ready to play. Sh... We could beat Duke.

Brad are you watching? I know we need to wait till year end to evaluate your team. but why?

WTF

 

[wijg]

It's a "red out" night...

I hate red out nights in my house.

"Beggars can't be choice-y" - Announcer

What?

 

[gmu2006]

At least we are shooting better than Dusquene from 3. . . They are shooting a dismal 9%, whereas we are shooting a lights out 10%.

 

[Irish44j]

I predict 200 turnovers against vcu.....and all my vcu friends in the area have been calling to ask if I want to go to the game with them...even offering free tickets.

I'd rather die in agony than attend that game with anyone I know from vcu....

 

[Herndon]

On a side note, Duquesne's announcers are pretty funny

 

[Washingtonian]

Jalen Jackson? Really announcers.

 

[DeepValue]

Looks like we've about given up - which means it's time to make a run.

 

[polepino]

Duquense swings the ball, finds the open shooter, THREE!!!

Damnit, why can't we do that!?

I seriously believe that the players have tuned out, and are just playing just to play becuase they have to. They don't want to lose but they aren't prepared enough to do what needs to be done to win. Every game its apparent and they just keep trying becuase you don't want to not try.

 

[gmu2006]

We hit 20!!!!! Great job!!!

We are averaging less than 1 point per minute.

 

[Herndon]

HEEEEEEY!! 20!

 

[Herndon]

LOLOL! I'm a big fan of their announcers. We make a three "..Whoa! They hit one!"

 

[Irish44j]

LOLOL! I'm a big fan of their announcers. We make a three "..Whoa! They hit one!"

No, it was "Whoa! They FINALLY hit one!" lol...

 

[gmu2006]

LOLOL! I'm a big fan of their announcers. We make a three "..Whoa! They hit one!"

It's kind of like watching someone fishing. 'Whoa! They got one!"
