Maybe the Beast from Beauty and the Beast, then.

Just prayers for Marlin this AM. It’s tough enough dealing with planning to bury a loved one and yet, all eyes are on you at work.

We’ve heard this team is close knit, and we saw at the presser yesterday indications of genuine care, love…whatever you wish to call it …between players and coach. They’re rallying around Marlin just like Dalcourt a few weeks back.

God always has you where you need to be. His “family” is around him today…it’s not just a tee shirt slogan. It’s real. Win or lose, they’re one today.

Bless them all.

Looking at the scores of all the Sunbelt tournament scores, Marlin was right. Belt had a lot of parity this year. All the games were pretty close. Hope we can have one more 4 game streak. Bball is fun again. Even if it’s late.

I agree. That's the Sun Belt Conference promoting the idea because we were the 8th seed.

Exactly: My only concern, we win conference tourny, go to MM, play number one seed (Baylor, Gonzaga..?), get blown across court, THEN OFFER MARLIN ANOTHER EXTENSION (for getting us back to MM)...

Beat GA State, win the SBC Tourney Championship, get in the NCAA, win a NCAA play in game (First Four). Hang the banner for the NCAA tournament win. Give Bob a 10 year extension.

That’s not ever happening. If we win it’s going to be a play in game.

Unless there are several other "Cinderella's" with .500 or losing records also winning their tournament. Just a thought.

Yes and if you win you will be getting thumped by Gonzaga or Baylor. Who cares if you beat some other obscure team in a play in game to get there. I don't look at that as tournament wins. The end result will still be the same.

Nothing wrong with that right now! We beat gsu and compete well in the NCAAs, I won't have anything to complain about.
