Furman vs. Penn St. Nov. 17th (11:30am Charleston Classic)

[purplehorse]

Good comeback. Cut deficit from 21-1. A few lucky 3’s by Penn State and two missed in-and-out 3’s by Bothwell in last minute. Performance by some players was a little rough but I saw a lot of positives where we can grow. Hien did not have a particularly good game. Hughey played well. Happy to see Lawrence back on the court. Kudos to Bothwell. Great learning experience.

I did not see Anderson. If we had had his experience early I think we could have won. Unfortunately the hole we were in was a little too great.

I think the weekend experience will be invaluable moving forward. Penn State is a good team largely because of their 3-point shooting.

Someone tell me if they know-why CBR is not doing the post-game radio show.

just dug too deep a hole.proud of the comeback to make it respectable.bodes well for the rest of the classic.

We sure need to leave Charleston with 2 wins. The Paladins will answer the call.

TRUE but honestly I think the weekend experience will pay tremendous dividends for the rest of the season regardless of the W-L record this weekend. INVALUABLE early season experience which we really need.

Yes at 2:30. I think the channel is TBD. Proud of the comeback when it would have been easy to give up and get blown out but that is not in their DNA. Need to get the next 2. This will be great experience for the team. Go ‘dins!

Couldn't watch on TV. Had to listen on the radio.

Anderson was in there early in the first half but was scored upon several times by their big guard. Pickett? And coach took him out and I'm not sure he ever returned? Bad match-up I would suspect.

They hit everything they shot in the first 15 min. Were we covering them? Or did they just make 'um anyway?

Seemed like there was a lid on the basket for us esp in the first half. Were we getting good shots?

Great comeback and good learning experience. Didn't live up to the Hype. I'm confident we will play better in the future.

So far only dropped one spot in kenpom to #63. Looked like FU had a good crowd.

I like our new home unis but man we need some road unis. The current road unis have to be at least 5 years old. Not a big fan of black on purple.

We may still get to whoop up on the midlands yard birds. Nikko and them beating their tail at the half.

Carolina looked like a bad rec league pick up team.

85-53 final. If we both win or lose tomorrow will play on Sunday. I don’t see SC beating anyone in Charleston.

Not a fan of just using “DINS” on the front. We’re PALADINS.

Agree that is a negative.
