Hmm, that implies that you believe the Warren Commission report that says that Oswald acted alone. Now that's

This is the 1st time that Ive seen him play at the college level where he didn't appear uncomfortable or out of step with the game. He seemed confident putting the ball on the floor and stepping into his jumper. Maybe he is finally rounding into the playing form that was was denied his freshman year. Adding steady play on the perimeter that can hit an open shot would help a great deal.
Very much agree. I'm seeing a lot more assertiveness on offense where he's getting the ball and looking to drive or shoot instead of just move the offense along. His last shot had a little freshman jitters in there, but to be fair there have been very few circumstances like that for him to learn to be comfortable.

I'm not trying to rain on a great win, but TOs turned what should have been a comfortable victory into a last second heroic stand. I can live with the turnovers on great defensive plays by the opposition. That isn't what most of ours are. Ours come from players over-dribbling into trouble spots which lead to errant passes or loss of control & trying to make passes into congested areas where there are no angles. This has been a constant game in and game out. I think Dane is taking the tact of letting them play it out and figure it out on their own, rather than drilling the hell out of them on what a good pass is. I think there is a fine line at this point between correction and confidence. I think Dane is focused more on lifting them up rather than getting after them when they know their record and are already disappointed.
I'm also hopeful that given a positive game Coach Fischer can focus a little more on the negatives while maintaining an over positive attitude.

Yes, the most important thing about the game was the neon shoes that three of the players wore. So, who wore it best? Covington's neon yellow, Carroll's neon pink, or Milkereit's neon green?
Yep, my first thought was," well, yes, Easter will be here before you know it."

Yup. "..implies that..".. "..likely that.." Grassy Knoll it is!
Better yet, it’s none of our business why players are out. W&M and Tribe Athletics will share what they want when they want and no amount of fan perceived entitlement will ever change that.

In NET Hofstra fell 21 spots to 95 and WM moved up six to 345.

Speedy confirms that the Pride did not respect the Tribe coming in. "It all comes down to respect" and "Respect, respect, respect".
Hofstra now saddled with two resume deflating losses. Coming off arguably a signature win at Arkansas. CAA produces these year after year.
