15-4 as it stands now is not an off year..........

If we would have won it would have been the first time Bob Richey has ever been 16-3..................

SoCon has been a struggle so far yes, hopefully we start playing better soon.....................

with all due respect, overall record isnt worth a pile of beans now. They r 3-3 in SoCon with Sam, UTC, UNCG, ETSU and Woofy probably ahead of them. At this point, best goal is to stay out of play in game IMHO. 2 home losses already that tough to overcome

Nonsense.....................

The regular season consists of 31 games last time I checked lol, all of them matter, we are still 15-4 for like only a handful of times in school history......................

Do we need to start playing better in the SoCon?
Yep ;)

You can have more than one goal on the season, having a good record is obviously one of them....
Plus the second goal you listed is still within reach, 12 more SoCon games to go, hopefully we play better ;)

A well deserved loss. 11 missed free throws, killed on the boards and second chance points. Like somene said new goal is to avoid the play-in game. 20 win season in serious doubt. Need to go 5-7 the rest of the way to get to 20 wins.

Samford lost tonight against ETSU (to fall to 15-4 overall same as us), so we are 2 games back in the SoCon of 5-1 Samford and 5-1 UNCG with 12 games to go, time to turn it up ;)

I imagine Samford fans are more disappointed than FU fans. They had a great crowd. Never seen them have the bleachers pulled out before. Congrats to ETSU.

Affirm posted on Jan 5 that 22 wins would be a good pre-tournament record for Furman.
Now to get to 22, we have to win 7 of our remaining 12 SoCon regular season games of which there are 6 home & 6 away.

20 wins iffy, 22 wins highly unlikely.

Their bigs outplayed our bigs, especially the last 7 minutes of the game. What the heck did Tyrese Hughey do to get in Coach R's doghouse? Is he in Coach R's doghouse? He is a senior who got plenty of playing time the last 3 years and now he is nogood? Bowser and Hien had their hands full and couldn't get a rebound if their life depended on it in the second half and Johnston barely played (knee?). All I'm saying is we could have used another big who can rebound and play defense.

Maybe the matchups were not right for that. I don't know.
