Battle out vs Pitt

[br801]

Not really a big move at all - we were -320 and now we're -250

This game is a pickem - Battle is literally all we have - of or on - no one else is capable of doing anything on their own - we need every loose ball and a monster defensive effort

If SU can pull this off tonight without Battle, this will be one of the greatest feats in American sports history. Think USA Hockey over the Soviet Union in 1980. Hope JB can channel Herb Brooks in the pregame speech.

Awful news this offense is lost without him. Smh.

ball will move more. may struggle to score, but the ball will move

 

[dasher]

We have won games this year with no offense from Battle.
We just need Hughes to be on this game.
He will determine if this isn’t a complete rock fight or we will win comfortably.

But the defense was still keying on Battle. Now, with no battle, they can key on Hughes

Ya I guess that's true.

Hope Jalen gets to play through mistakes and doesn't try to be a hero. Tough spot for a guy who's been an afterthought

I still feel confident that coach will still not play Jalen Carey at all but hope im wrong. Kid has a ton a talent n I think he's a bomb ready to blow! IN A GOOD WAY. The only way to help him is to get experience playing not watching

Agreed. Frank and Brissett have to play well, and Buddy has to hit.

other than not being able to bring the ball up against pressure, he is great

we have a winner

Sounds like he’d be back for the NCAAs at least

What was the tweet ?

 

[tbonezone]

And Coach Tbone gets multiple offers from the NBA.

which mascot am i supposed to replace ?

Knicks are reportedly interested in making you their first mascot/coach.

 

[Day2]

We're in.

Even if we lose, the committee has to take into account our best player didn't play.

We're in.

But I still say we win tonight.

I’m actually thinking the opposite. If we lose, I could see the committee leaving us out because of the injury. Hope you’re right and I’m wrong. On second thought, I hope we just win.

I'm going with this one

 

[hoopsupstate]

Usually, when a player is out the rest of the team digs in and plays harder. Maybe this is what this team needs. Let’s hope everyone steps their game up a notch and they pull together to get a win.

He’s got the rotations all figured out. Length of game(in minutes) times 5, divided by number of player on team. That’s all there is to it! Keep everybody fresh and develop your worst guys for next year!

 

[samspann1]

I just read that JB said that Battle is a game-time decision?

 

[Brooky03]

I bet we'll see some good ball movement tonight

Player movement, too.

Messing with Capel’s head?

He's the next analytics visionary. If he also has some musical ability and can sit in with Dolan's band on off nights, the job is his.

 

[Zepharus]

UNLEASH THE JALEN

So glad that Jalen got significant minutes throughout the season so that he is ready...oh wait

 

[hoopsupstate]

I’m sure Battle wants to try and give it a go.

 

[tbonezone]

probably means if we're cruising he sits. we fall behind lace em up.
