I don't know what the number is for him to bounce, but anything less than him being the highest paid coach in the MAC should come as motivation to do so. Aside from that caveat I don't think he wants to chase the money and would be fine here as long we show him that respect and the support to upgrade practice facilities.

I never understood the love for Mighty Taco either. And for me the Crunch wrap Supreme is one of the greatest culinary achievements in all of fast food history.

There was another pretty good late night Mexican joint near the Hyatt last year if I remember correctly. They served beer and tequila... it was a Taco Bell.

I'll be rocking the Hyatt Arcade, as will an old friend of mine. I'm expecting big numbers as I'm sure the community is expecting a deep run and willing to roll the dice. My dilemma this year wasn't if I should wait until Friday/Saturday, but if I should hold off for the Big Dance.

Even beating them is losing... I am expecting us to run a rampage on BG though. The MACC will be a grind but we have so much depth and experience we can overcome anything.

In all my years of following sports, I can't think of a team that has been as fun to follow as this one. It will be a bitter sweet senior night but good to know we've got more records to set afterwards.

http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/25923557/why-bubble-smaller-think Looks like ESPN considers us a lock for the tourney. Still have some games to play but it's a good sign to see some of the big players taking notice.

Meh, NCAA or bust. I don't think a win Tuesday necessarily does that. We win both this week, and I think we are ok. Two blowouts would be nice too.

We were better than most MAC championship winners that year and did decently out of conference (I think we beat 3-4 eventual conference champs that year) but we finished in like a 7 way tie for 2nd with 7 conference losses. Even with that being a very good year for the MAC, and our RPI being something like upper 40's there was no way the committee was going to show us any love. Even in the NIT we were made to play a play in game.

Anecdotal, but I do remember Reggie being slow to call a timeout when we clearly needed one. Yeah, in hindsight it looks bad, but everything went wrong there, including Cage going from 4-4 in the first half to 0-4 or whatever the stat was from 3 in the second. I hated Ohio then for many reasons aside from just that night, but I have more feelings toward Akron and even the fans at St Bonaventure who still live in the 1960's at this point. With that said, I hope we crush them.

As much as I want to give the current students a hard time for not getting rowdy I can see how it’s not always easy when you don’t face much adversity. We’ve been pretty spoiled at home thus far and I hope it continues. I know in my day (I feel old) we yelled our heads off all game but at the same time we were commonly the underdog trying to either edge out a win or slay a giant. We no longer get home games against giants and have been lucky enough to go most home games with little to adversity against teams we are expected to beat. When we have needed crowd support we’ve gotten it but we’ve been lucky enough to not really need it. The tourney will be a grind and I expect us as a fan base to do our part.

Rutgers have a good lead over #22 Iowa with 6 minutes left.

If we win our next 2 I'll be able to sleep a little better at night. Until then I don't believe we are a sure thing.

He says it's a slump but it has to be something physical. I'm hoping it is just mental since that can be overcome. We can get through MAC teams with him not hitting shots but if we want another marquee win like Arizona we need him to be a threat from outside. If Harris from 2019 showed up against AZ last year, I don't think we win that game despite the ultimately 21 point win.

There actually weren't many empty seats from what I remember seeing. If you're basing it on the picture above I think the black/blue shirts people were wearing against the black/blue seating background make it look like there are a lot of empty seats in the distance which are actually occupie

I can't really come up with much better. I am loving the band playing "All we Do Is Win" afterwards unfortunately that probably wouldn't work out as a stand alone chant.

I don't remember seeing that one in a while but perhaps I've just missed it since I only make it to game sporadically now. It worked great when the students were split between being behind the basket and in the corner on that adjacent side about 10 -12 years ago.

This came across my mind last night while looking at the players banners hanging from the rafters at AA. What does it take to get that honor and how long after playing are you eligible? I would think that would have to be more than just a UB Athletic Hall of Fame induction otherwise I'd expect to see more names up there. As someone who came in as a freshman in 02-03 Turner Battle would be the first name I would expect to see up there from my personal memory. I would expect to someday see CJ up there,.

It makes sense that we should have our own separate bars and I'm sure Southern Tier will be a fine venue but I loved that layout at Hairy Buffalo with the private room upstairs, the proximity (yeah I know, Southern Tier is only like 200 feet down the road) and the fact that it has Buffalo in the name. As Michael Bolton from Office space put it, why should we have to change when they're the ones who suck.

I feel just the opposite about it. I love it in basketball just once at the end of a game but whenever it gets pulled out during a soccer game I cringe. Perhaps it was just ruined by overuse during the 2014 World Cup where it would come out like 2 dozen times a game.

That ending though... ugh. "She is the 2nd leading scorer in the nation, and Dontay was at one point one of the top defensive players in the MAC". He won MAC Defensive Player of the Year 2 years ago... as in THE top defensive player in the MAC. And he's still one of the best in the MAC if not the nation.

This weekend is always a blast, even sweeter these past few years. Booked at the Hyatt Arcade. Will be run into y'all at the Hairy Buffalo.

I'll give Mcrea some love too. He was hitting 'em too. Let's do this for the next couple of games, have a closer one back at Ohio, and put BG in their place come end of MAC play. I am fully torqued
