Jake White ended his career tonight in a loss to Duquesne 120-112. Omaha scored 80 points in the 2nd half.

Jake with 15 points and 4 rebounds. 2 of 3 from three. Had 4 fouls so I am going to assume he didn't draw any charges.

I doubt it.

They only had a few days notice for the game, so that wouldn't be nearly enough time for him to get to the spot and stay set for him to draw a charge.

FugCue. Now that's a funny school acronym!

Good point, KW. Because I'm clean and pure as the driven snow, that didn't occur to me until you mentioned it, but now that you've pointed it out I'll probably think of it darn near every time FGCU comes up. Somehow I also suspect that you aren't the first, especially among their conference foes, to make the observation.

Meanwhile, I also had to look up Jake White's game, because I couldn't figure out how a team can score 80 in a half and lose. But it turned out that Duquesne was up 19 at halftime and the Omaha rally fell short, and the teams shot 80 FTs between them, which will help pump up the score.

No the 80 points were in the second half. It was 51-32 at half.

I think they were trying a new rule, only 2 players could cross half court and play defense. That's about the only way I could think that 149 point could be scored in a half.
