All three plays in question were in front of me...couldn't figure out why they were having such an issue. The band sounds better this year...wish they played more. The canned music is obnoxious and too loud at times (especially pre-game). It nearly hurts to listen to it. But, the biggest reaction by my friend was how much he hated the in game promotions...the stupid contests. He's EXACTLY RIGHT!!! Please make them go away. They are bush league and stupid. Let the fans take over with cheering and whatever...just no more shooting contests. Always great to be in the Roundhouse---especially after a win!

3G said he would have used him tonight but AM has a quad injury and couldn't go. 3G not thrilled with IPBC's play tonight..
That said that doesn't mean AM is heading for a key role on this team anytime soon.

He seems to be taking more hate than any player I've ever seen. Maybe I'm just getting old.

ShockerFever is correct. Didn't know this was the Shockernet.Net/UNICEF board? I understand without him we might suck... But watching him play at times is hard to stomach.

Yep. Slightly hypocritical there Cold.
I'm sure SHJ is a great kid. I have no ill-will towards him. He's just not a Division I basketball player. It's frustrating because there are other scenarios and options that can play out.
I know he's trying like every player but it's just the facts. This is basketball. It's a fan message board. Nobody hates him. He's just all JUCO. And this is a high major Division I basketball program.

I hate to sound like a virtue-signalling, safe space-needing Snowflake but... reading through this thread is kind of difficult due to the severe verbal punishment SHJ is receiving. I know I've smacked on some of the uncoordinated white boys of roster's past, but SHJ doesn't suck and he's battled through some mental problems. He isn't trying to be a one-man show and Gregg Marshall again praised him tonight on air for his contributions while acknowledging his short-comings. He basically said we'd have been screwed without him. Maybe we could show our frustration without being so direct with the trashing. SHJ is no FVV, but he's tied for 1st in minutes played and 2nd in scoring so the boss wants him on the floor. I have no doubt he's playing as hard as he can.
I don't normally feel sorry for players but damn... dude is a college student and he's no slacker. He's actually a really damn talented athlete. One of the quickest players I've ever seen on a Shocker squad. Maybe not that bright, but he can score in bunches when he's hot and he doesn't drag ass.

How many empty seats? 800? Plus we gave away 400. Crowd wasn't very good, game wasn't very good. WTF seemed a common expletive in the seats around me.

Charles Dickens could have been Samajae’s biographer. He was the best of guards, He was the worst of guards.
MU played very well. Not sure Poor Bear will be the first post off the bench anymore, but I thought that was taken care of after last game.
