RE: WESTErN MICHIGAN GAME
A spread offense and a pressure defense works. As in conference play, EMU is 2nd in points (85 per game) scored, 1st in Field Goals Made (32) 1st in Field Goal Percentage (53 percent), 1st in 2-pointers made (24), 1st in two-point percentage (63 percent), 4th in three-point percentage (35 percent), 2nd in number of foul shots (28 per game), 4th in assists (12 per game), 1st in blocks (4 blocks per game), and 1st in steals (9 per game).

WMU is total ass. Terrible team. I watched the Ohio-Akron game. Two solid teams.

Agree EMU’s energy down in the second half. Partially due to long lay-off and players recovering from Covid.
So glad to see EMU get off to a fast start on opponents home court. Pressure defense was the key. Just need to do the same through-out a game. That’s EMU’s defensive strength. Want to see more from Golson and M.Scott in future games. N. Scott’s return will really help EMU’s defense.

Western being without B. White the rest of the year is a huge loss.

I agree to the extent that if he was playing alongside Lamar Norman (who scorched us for 34 points), that would be an incredible backcourt. Although, there would not be too much other than that, and I think they might have still been a bad team. The game really was not as close as the 6 point final score.

I don't think you have to fire the guy, you gave him a Dollar General sized contract for just two years after all. New AD armed with all the Stryker money will be able to find a new guy, perhaps another Hawk whose career record embarrasses all of today's MAC West coaches.
Bye the way, tell Titus Wright to get into the portal if you don't get a REAL coach. Titus was a stud as a freshman and two seasons later, he has not improved. Kind of reminds me of talented freshmen under our former coach.

If you didn't hear, our Coach Bates has been busy playing in Golf in the summer. We need a new coach, someone who is committed to the growth and success of our players (Titus Wright) is one of them.

Everyone agrees Bates should go (for Western’s sake, not necessarily ours). I think Jerry’s point was he is only on a two year contract. So he need not be fired, just let his contract elapse.

Agree….WMU has too many resources not to go out and get an experienced winning coaching staff.

Thanks Ramy that was my point, it is what they did with Hawkins, simply let the contract expire.
The AD there had one foot out the door to retirement and used the pandemic to justify her actions. WMU will be just fine, a new AD will find a guy, perhaps even Saddi Washington will listen this time.

In other words, don't fire him, just do what Eastern does:
