Jalen needs to step his game up, they are targeting him.

 

[GMU_DCU]

Livingston banked 3 from waaaaay out.

Paulsen's recruits look pretty good so far

I love Paulsen's recruits, dont get me wrong! Just think Hewitt would better be suited as a recruiter at this point. I'm thinking Hewitt's guys already look better under Paulsen.

 

[GreenLantern]

Otis for the 3 followed by a Marko 2!

 

[Enforcer]

Not bad, not bad at all!

 

[GMU_DCU]

26 - 22 Mason at the half.

 

[GreenLantern]

Halftime 26-22!

 

[polepino]

Minor lapse the end, but in control! ESPN guy eating his own words right now!

 

[GreenLantern]

Magic gone my a$$

 

[GSII]

who said we are doing it with magic?

 

[GMUSig03]

Outside of Olivier, who is 5/10, the rest of their team is 3 for 22! We only have 5 to's in first half, which I think is probably our best half of the season so far in that regard.

chris saptola says we lose big.

I'd say that's exactly what I would expect Chris Saptola to say, except I've never heard of him. Clearly doing his part to prop up the BCS industrial complex.

First half happened to be during my planning period, so I had it on in the background while working. The parts I got to see looked good! Otis makes freshman mistakes, but not very many. What a steal he's going to turn out to be. All of the freshmen we've gotten to see the last two games show tremendous poise.

We were leading at halftime against a crappy Colgate team and managed to lose BIG on our home court. My hopes are certainly not up. But damn it feels good to see good basketball again.

I want this win for no other reason than to see what we could do in the championship game. That would really get our young guys some high quality experience. We beat a "BCS" team yesterday and just had a really nice half against another one today, but this is a depleted version of what OK State is going to be this year and that is not an exceptionally good Ole Miss team. It would be fun to see our guys face a powerhouse.

I kind of like letting Olivier get his rather than double teaming him and letting them light us up from three. Commentators disagree, but it's working ok. Look at the stats for everyone on that team not named Olivier.

Gotta be happy with a halftime lead. Marko, Thompson and Grayer all played well. In the second half, we really need Livingston to get more involved in the scoring. His only points came on the banked 3.

Also, somebody needs to tell Jenkins that Hewitt is no longer here and that he doesn't need to get running starts from the FT line before twirling in the lane and throwing up a circus shots. He plays too close to the basket to be 0-4 from the floor.

Don't forget to throw in a few travels or dribbling the ball off his leg.

Couple of OK St 3's have tied it up

 

[Herndon]

For a second consecutive day, I am surly.

 

[GMU_DCU]

Thompson with a case of butterfingers to start 2nd half..Oklahoma State grabs the lead.
