You can see the talent there, But a tough schedule and youth will make this season hard to swallow

With what Merritt walked into, if he somehow gets us to play .500 ball in conference play he should be coach of the year.
I’ll frankly be shocked if we break into double digit wins overall.

Richmond wins 80-53. Hung around in the first half but only shot 30% for the game. Next up at Charlotte Friday evening.

Our best chance to in is vs APP on Wed We had Furman beat until a 4th qtr collapse (0-9 from 3) did us in. Tough schedule. We'll win a couple conference games. No one expects too much this year.

You know it’s frankly unacceptable to lose by 78 at home to an unranked power five opponent. I know we’re in full rebuild mode, but that performance was dreadful.
That being said, you know what is worse? Seeing our squad standing in line for the national anthem and only seeing three or four players, and ZERO members of the coaching staff with hands over hearts. This, after not 30 seconds before bowing heads in prayer to a thrice holy God. Prayer that if you tried to do in public on over half the planet you’d get a bullet in the head for your attempt. Prayer that is permitted in this great Republic of ours.
Do better Coach Merritt.

Solid 74-59 win over LW tonight. 2-4 in league play and only a game out of 4th. Not bad considering the hole they’ve had to dig out of.
Speaking of holes left, mighty Memphis at last report is 6-12 and 2-5 in league play. Karma is a bitch ain’t it?

After another loss today, 3-9 in league play and currently would be in play in game, but do have two of our last four against teams we are bunched with in the 7, 8, and 9 spots, at LW and UNCA here. Maybe we can win one or two and at least avoid the play in round.
Regardless, we'll be sitting home come dance time just like a certain squad over in Memphis. This grass isn't always greener is it? Karma.

Women pull the 63-58 upset on DJ Laster floor at the Tim Craft center. Three games to play and a good chance to stay out of the 8-9 play in game.

Nice 80-65 win today over UNCA. Game at LW Thursday will be to get out of the 8/9 play in game.
Merritt has done an admirable job with an empty cupboard, and has the ladies playing their best ball of the season at the right time.

Big game at LW tonight for the women. A win means a sweep and a real good chance at finishing at least 7th and avoid the play in game. Each has won their last two and three of their last six.
