And so it begins! I'm covering a high school football regional tonight, so I won't be able to watch. Here is the open thread to follow along for those that are. I'll post a brief wrap in the morning before heading up for the football game. It's a busy blogging weekend, but I wouldn't have it any other way.
Some might ask what my reasonable expections are for this season. I will only say this: I live in Indianapolis. We visit Miami to see some baseball every spring, normally in early April. The Canes have two home series in April, one the first weekend and one the third. I penciled in our trip for the 3rd weekend because I could not be in Miami with the Final Four being here in Indy. I want to be busy that weekend, as I am attending regardless of cost if the Boilers make it.
Those are my expectations, as I am keeping a weekend free five months from now.
Show up for the Seniors tomorrow. Beat State!

Time to Boiler the F up!
I thought it be all warm and shitty, but it just tasted like normal beer. It was still cold.
I don't think games and or seasons can start off better than the first 5 minutes
No one touches the Shaqtus.

Okay, so I do have access
Limited, at least. God bless wireless. What’s going on?

from the gamecast, here's what I can tell
Up 55-20 at halftime. About 5 minutes in the Boilers were up 28-3. Lots of guys seeing playing time
Nobody touches the Shaqtus.

Byrd, Smith, Barlow and Bade have all scored. Wohlford has been in but hasn’t taken a shot.

We came out absolutely on fire, got up big and started rotating in the young guys. The shooting percentage has dropped off and we’ve had a few turnovers.

Also
Take a look at the Big East- Nova only up by 1 at halftime against Fairleigh Dickinson.

We really haven't established the paint yet...
it would be nice to get Bade and JJ more touches down in the paint… granted I know that’s not our MO… but I want us not to be so dependent on outside shots….
It'd be nice to have Sandy Marcius

Honestly
It would be nice to have Lew Jack… penetrating the Defense and dishing off to JJ in the paint
by contrast
my game is 0-0 at the half

I’m not sure I remember what 30 (or 24) minutes of shutout football looks like.
Nobody touches the Shaqtus.

It's actually good defense
Some pretty good stops inside the 30. Since Class A teams rarely have kickers there are no field goal attempts.

I guess that's not entirely true.
I watched 60 minutes of it 2 weeks ago, but I’ve done my best to forget it ever happened.

UConn 37, William & Mary 31 at the half
Imagine if William & Mary had Steve, Brad, and Jacob for a whole starting five!

HA
Clearly the Big East is the Super Conference once again this year. Nova is finally pulling away from FDU.

I bet Mary could leave William at home with the kids and hang with IU

Back to the Boilers
Up 76-44, at what point do the starters get pulled to avoid injury or do we let them play it out to work out some kinks?

4:30 to go
and Kramer’s still in- at least he’s built like a bulldozer

It has helped. At least my game finally has a score.

Someone get a safety?
At least it can’t end in a draw.

Amen
Sounds like we just put it on cruise control. I am fine with that.

Very impressed w/ Barlow tonight...
Highlight reel dunk, some nice passes, has a nice hesitation move, handles the ball well. With his size, he definitely poses some match up problems.
Nobody cares about your fantasy baseball team
Nice balance...
Hummel 17, JJ 15, Byrd 13, Kramer 11, Smooge 9…
9-20 from 3
23 assist, 14 turnovers
Nobody cares about your fantasy baseball team
Really, REALLY glad
we didn’t redshirt Barlow, kid looks great. had an NBA drive-n-dunk tonight that was just out of the blue awesomeness.
Starters came out and just DOMINATED the beginning of the game. Very good to see.
