Football really isn't any better. In the 19 seasons Since joining the mountain west our overall record is 80 and 138(quick count on Wikipedia could be off by a few) with 5 bowl appearances and 3 wins. Hopefully times are changing for football though.

While it's true he has made lots of mistakes he is a very young coach. He can recruit and you can tell he builds relationships with his players. I think anyone that is in a leadership position knows building trust with your people is a huge part of coaching them. Game management and Xs and Os must b...

Standard overreaction thread nothing to see here.

Starting this year only the top 8 teams make the conference tourny right?

Had a Blue Moon last Saturday in the AA that was absolutely awful (flat / spoiled). Are the vendors selling out of the same kegs from football season (4-5 + months ago)? Did they let it get warm, then try to re-chill it? I don't know what is going on, but the quality is horrible. And the price for ...

I was at this one. great win, we played solid d forced lots of turnovers and attacked the rim. We shot 50% from the floor mostly because we had a ton of layups and dunks. To top it off we even had 6 offensive rebounds.

Ok this experiment just didn't work.. its time for him to go. I disagree sure he makes inexperienced mistakes at times but he's a young coach that can recruit. We are 6 and 0 in ot this year and sitting 3rd in the mountain west. We are not f-word Duke. If they fired him odds are we would end up wit...

Best I've ever seen us rebound, especially defensively. I'd like to see us crash the O boards, but whatever. Defense and rebounding travel. We can win road games if we take what we did last night and do it on the road. We didn't shoot great, but still managed to beat the best team in the conference...

One of the main reasons Anthony Mack came to UW over bigger schools like Villanova was to play right away. I would rather let him play a shortened season than risk losing him all together.

Great win for the pokes. In addition to Dalton, Cody and Hunter played well and the entire team played tough D. I admit I was worried coming in but what a great way to start conference play. The crowd wasn't half bad either for a wed night during Christmas break with the students gone.

I am going tonight. Looking forward to a good game. Go Pokes!

We, once again, have no real rotation and it worries me. Like why did Gorski play 15 min in the second half last night and get pulled for crunch time? If AE really thought Gorski gave us the best chance to win why didn't he play down the stretch? Why does he sub out Herndon and Dalton at the same t...

According to team rankings.com we are ranked 246th in the nation in three point shooting percentage yet, according to NCAA.com we are 18th in 3 point attempts.

I'm happy we escaped with a win but starting to get worried about the start of conference play. Hopefully we can learn from this and get our schlit together.

Agreed, I also the think the Mountain West has gotten better overall this year which will make it tougher to gain any ground.

I think a top 4 finish is in the cards. UNLV and Nev are def better, SDSU may be, but I think we're the best after that. I don't think we could have played worse vs. Cinci and I don't they could have played much better honestly. I think if we played Cini with a full squad 10 times we get wins vs th...

I went to the game this afternoon. Overall Pokes played solid. Defense was decent lots of forced turnovers. On offense shot selection was better than the last few games but still too many bad three point shots early in the shot clock. When they did move the ball and attack the rim they did get allot...
