I think Marshall is clicking right now. MT, on the other hand, has been extremely inconsistent over the past couple of weeks. Marshall is the one team that we can't just grind out a win, because they will score too much.

Also, consider this. In two of the three games MT beat Marshall last year the three departed seniors accounted for 47 of the 83 points in the first win and 50 of the 99 in the second one.

In the one we lost, we only scored 66 and those same three players combined for only 19 points. That was the difference and as good as J. Williams has been I don't think he can make up the difference by himself. Close game throughout. Marshall pulls away in the last four and wins by 15.

If both Marshall and MTSU can get though the conference without screwing up a game or two with a bad loss. And we meet in the CUSA championship, I think there is a good chance we could land two.

But both MTSU and Marshall have to take care of business first to have that chance.

Quote's from Jeff Goodman when news broke of Dan D'Antoni hiring in 2014:

Quote:"CUSA Coaches texting me at a furious rate downright giddy by the fact that Marshall hired Dan D'Antoni"

Quote:Everyone in NBA Circles...Along with CUSA coaches -- killing the hire

Quote from Gary Parrish CBS Sports:

Quote:Dan D'Antoni hasn't worked on a college campus in 40 years.

And he received a text from an NBA exe predicting:

Quote:Marshall's hire will be the worst thing you've ever witnessed

Time for some crow for Jeff Goodman, Gary Parrish and the of the so called college basketball analysts who said Dan was worse than the coming of the anti Christ. But we all know that we will never see an apology or even a correction that Dan was a bad hire.
