Any update on Rafferty's hand?

Last heard a few days ago he is in good shape, not sure if its fully 100%, probably not, but I think he should be fine out there tonight

I sure hope they are right! Go Paladins!

If you believe the ticket website, there are only 200 seats left for the game tonight. I hope that is right, and I hope the students turn out in force. Be there early and be loud!

A little surprising the line has gone up to 5.5 and in some places 6.5 with FU favored. Hope that is accurate. I will take a one point win.

This guy is so knowledgeable.

Sorry if I'm boring you with these tweets, but I just cannot help myself.

Love the way Rafferty posts up & ‘feels’ the pressure on one hip or the other and spins away from it. That’s the way my Dad taught me to play inside. Worked great as a 6’0” 8th grader...not quite so well as a 6’2” high schooler in basketball-crazy NC...even with a much bigger body, FUBeAR still got ‘packed’ regularly. 6’8” would have been SWEET.

Charles Barkley could do it with the elite at only 6’4” though. I know his bio says he’s 6’6”. I was fortunate enough to have dinner and spend an evening with Mr. Barkley quite a few years ago...honestly, I don’t think he was much taller than FUBeAR. I’m ‘giving him’ 6’4”. BTW - he was hilarious AND a perfect gentleman the entire evening.

Addendum - Ha...I just looked it up...seems his good buddy, Tiger Woods (and others), agree with FUBeAR’s assessment... “[When] Barkley questioned [Tiger] Woods' listed height of 6-foot-2, Woods responded by saying, "every program said you were 6-6. you're no more than 6-4 on a good day."

Students lined up at the door.

Crowd looks awesome on TV!

[DungeonRealm]

Getting our butts kicked bad down low, 24 rebounds to 12, that's ugly
We can't even box out on free throws

[DungeonRealm]

We need to recruit another big 6'8 or taller for next season so bad

I would take a decent grad transfer or juco, we need more size badly

[Paladin91]

Nice crowd, noise...their bigs are causing a lot of trouble though. Need to find an adjustment at the half.
