Solid write up, Charlotte needs this one and a few more to even up the series.

Nothing official, but I think most of us would be surprised if he gets back on the floor. You've really got to feel for the kid.

I'm hoping for no hangover from the ODU game. Show up and start fast.

I think Sullivan's basketball career is done. Continuously getting concussions is something that you should take lightly, there are more important things in life he should focus on.

RE: UAB vs Charlotte Preview
Expect crying about referees if you beat them UAB. The only reason we beat them was because we had the referees in our back pocket.

I don't entertain ref complaints. It's part of the game.

ODU was in the bonus about the 12 minute mark of the second half. UAB got into the bonus with 3:30 to go in OT.
These are facts. No, I'm not crying.

I'm going to lose a lot more sleep over Charlotte averaging 10 3's a game in conference play than the refs potential influence.

I'm not going to lose sleep, either way. Just making an observation.

And I value that observation. Let's beat our old Sunbelt foe and pursue history.

Quote:The 49ers’ frontcourt will be much bigger and physical than ODU’s.
This one went wide of the mark. The 49ers don't have a frontcourt. Uchebo has been dominating the boards but doesn't defend, and no one else over 6'4 plays. Sullivan's career is over. Benas Griciunas has skill but not heart, and plays only to spell Uchebo, and Anthony Van Hook, besides being all of about 6'4, is hurt and probably won't play. The Niners have a 2 solid frosh guards (White & Davis), Ogbueze, and Curren Scott is starting to play better. But they have very little experience, take long stretches off on defense, and have no post defenders at all. Price is still in need of a very strong recruiting class of forwards and centers before Charlotte will be competitive with a team like UAB.

Uchebo is the real deal.
