    I didn't see a single play of it...

    I tried fixing my girlfriend's digital cable box, but to no avail. We ended up eating St. Patty's dinner over The Bourne Supremacy...

    The only thing I have heard is that my father told me over the radio broadcast he heard, Minor threw the ball away on 3 of the first four possessions, and we were giving them turnovers all night, it seemed...

    I'll let the rest of the Forum cool off...

    Just know that we really could have used Matt Damon on the floor tonight.

    I don't believe you about not watching the game because I don't believe that you have a girlfriend :thumb:

    I don't have the energy to duke it out with you tonight, but it seems as though your boy Brady left himself open for some serious criticism. I told you I would leave our stances on Brady alone - so I will...

    That's okay, we've got enough people to fill the void temporarily.

    I'll expect your report on my desk in the morning.

    I actually appreciate you leaving it be for the moment.

    Sounds like we could have used Matt Doherty a little more than Matt Damon...

    Come on! You left yourself open! I couldn't resist...It was so easy...

    Honestly though, I'm not here to duke it out...I'm here to find out what everyone else thought...I honestly didn't watch a nanosecond of CBS, and I haven't since last Saturday & Sunday...

    Enjoy the respite while it lasts...Because I am slowly gaining momentum for next week...

    Well, I can't comment on a performance I didn't see...and I honestly didn't watch a single possession...I did enjoy watching the Bourne Supremacy on Hi Def on my DVD...We had an amazing "vegetarian" dinner with some Irish Potato recipe that she got offline from www.epicurious.com

    You guys enjoy the break, because next week, I plan on revisiting these and other hard hitting subjects...

    It was Utah all over again. Or Oklahoma from last years NIT, or Purdue from a few years back.

    I coached class A ball for a few years and most coaches know a good press is beaten with passes. The Brown Suit, however, dicovered Tack could dribble past it. I'm sure glad he did, the results justify my faith in John's ability to take LSU to the next level.

    I also though Brady's adjustment to the game plan was awesome. During the seven-week run during SEC play, getting Davis and Bass invovlved was so predictable and look at the results. It was apparent that a return to the free-wheeling guard play that is Bradyball was justified. Afterall, it was a CUSA team and look at the success we've had against Houston and USM with the guards shooting a will.

    I was off-base to ever suggest that we upgrade the program with, of all people, Mike Anderson. The style of ball UAB plays would most certainly never fill the Assembly Center. The notion of having the entire bench involved with the game is flawed. It would destroy the flow of the game. I was so wrong to ever doubt the basketball knowledge of the Brady lovers, after all his non-conference record this year was over .500. The CUSA really did not count for anyrhing.

    Yup, that was some dance! And having been told to sit back and enjoy, rather than ask for a better partner, I can certainly see the wisdom. That was certainly satisfying! Damned, I am so fired up for next year! I can not wait until we just blow the crap out of Nicholls State in the opener. Man with all that talent coming in, and Brady continuing to coach us to levels like like last night... I can see us definitely popping a 21-12 season next year, maybe run at the west title, and no worse than an NIT bid! Yeah, man, I am so hyped for another run of this type of hoops.

    This is the only post I'm going to read about the game. Smart move there TE. Come in later and bash away. It's the Brady Hater rut and I'm sure you'll find the does in heat and receptive. I saw most of the game. It sucked. We got our asses kicked all night long. I'll leave it to the experts here to dissect and analyze.

    Go ladies on Sunday.

    But you did enjoy the dance, other than that, right?

    TE made a believer out of me.

    I sure hope the "Tack transfering" rumor is true. If we could only be so lucky to have Brady on the same one way ticket out.

    Worst. . coaching. . ever. . .

    Did Brady even stand up one time during the game?

    Still, the effective way to beat a press is perimeter shooting and they couldn't hit the ocean last night (well, until the last 10 minutes when we were down by 30)

    Thank goodness I didn't give DirecTV $60 for the tournament package. So I missed watching this game too.
