After having lost so much of last year's scoring to the portal, the guys are 9-1.
Who would've guessed?
Now onto into a well-deserved - and much needed - break.
Return one week from today to face So. Carolina State (279 KenPom, 278 NET) in a potential trap-game, followed by NAIA Montreat the next Wed.

CBR: "Find a Way, Furman". Gotta love this team!

I certainly wouldn't have guessed it. This year everyone has bought in. Much different than last year

No Question. PJ ,Vanderwall ,Hien, and Anderson are the leaders this year. Hughey too. Hughey has had very limited playing time but when he does play he plays with enthusiasm and purpose and nearly always contributes. Molnar comes in and is very effective in the first half against FGCU and didn't play at all in the second half. But he doesn't pout about it. House didn't hardly play against FGCU the other night and comes in and plays well for 24 minutes today. The player interviews with PJ and VDW show how bad these "dudes" want to win.

CBR's post game presser was really interesting and shows that he is really and old school coach that knows how to be successful and motivate players in new school environment. Not everybody can do that and I am enjoying this team a lot this year.

TEAM concept can be underrated. Individual talent alone can be overrated. CBR and staff have done a great job rebuilding!

What does your crystal ball say about our in-conference record? Inquiring minds want to know!
