FU @ Louisville Nov. 12th

Maybe I am alone, BUT (big but) it seems to me that if you are in a situation where you are on the cusp of a big win, score tied, 5 seconds left, ball in the hands of your top offensive player, it is not a good time to call a timeout.
Not even trying to suggest that I would be a better coach than our guy, with whom I am well pleased.

Totally agree as I stated above. MB was one on one and was in good position when time was called, Then on the ensuing inbounds UL was letting Slawson get the ball and he takes off to the baseline and we barely get it in. Thank goodness it all worked out.

A few comments from the Louisville Message Board:

During Game

Furmans coach is a cool customer, I like him

After The Game

Furman is better than Louisville. Never thought that would be a reality.

Fan A-I know a loss is going to bring all the haters out but I don't feel bad about this one. We are still searching for our identity as a team, everyone is figuring out their role and our coach is out. Chalk this loss up to growing pains and move on.

Fan B-We lost to Furman at home. There is no silver lining to that.

Fan C-Sometimes you have to find them. You can learn more from the losses.

Fan D-The only thing I ever learned from a loss is that I don’t like losing!

I’m inclined to think it’s the perfect time to call a timeout. I’m a never-played-the-game hack as well, but I have to think our chances are always better from a set-play that we control. To your point, coach admitted on the post-game the inbound play was blown, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t the right thing to do.

I enjoyed seeing CBR's 7-8 year old son celebrating in the locker room with the team. That tells you all you need to know about CBR.

What a cool experience, and on a school night! Or, did he get to go on the road trip because it was Veterans Day weekend? HAHA.

Noticed that as well
CBR with the dance moves too
We also had one or two of the guys that just signed with us in there, good stuff

Are you sure about the recruits? One is 5 hours from Louusville and the other is 9 hours.
