Great commit!

In Xavier we trust. In Chris Mack we trust. Keep it up.

Mack is 3 for 3 ncaa births and two sweeeet 16's.

Dayton has ZERO sweets in 28 years! Dayton should try to get into the MAC conf. They are more similar in program to OU, Miami and Bowling Green than X.

I find it hilarious that people are citing an ejection as a reason that he is a bad kid that we are bringing in. Everything I have read is that it was a bullshit call on him clearing space on a rebound and he caught the kid with an elbow and was ejected. Some UD fans are just absolutely ridiculous.

Two things, quoting that article:

What is UD basketball all about? UD basketball is all about this: The 20-12 Flyers — who had all but one player back from last season’s splash in the NCAA tournament and were the preseason favorites to win the A-10 — will likely go to the NIT now. Actually, UD isn't good enough to normally be considered the OFFICIAL preseason conference favorite, though it pulls that off annually in the minds of some of its feeble fans.

And then we have this little gem: Gregory inspired his team before the game by appearing in a boxing robe with padded mitts as LL Cool J’s “Mama Said Knock You Out” blared in the room. Such violence. They truly have gangstas in Dayton.

But then Dayton pulled a Dayton and collapsed in spectacular fashion. (Gary Parrish - CBS Sports)

Not to mention the kid who was fouled said it was unintentional. He was going for a rebound.

Muddy’s Observations:


(1)"Sugar-Coat It" Russell added an inch to Matt Stainbrook’s height:

(2)"Sugar-Coat It" Russell made no mention whatsoever of Matt Stainbrook’s well-publicized weight of 290 pounds.


(3)"Sugar-Coat It" Russell made no mention whatsoever of Matt Stainbrook’s track record of being a thug.

Steve Hawkins Sits Matt Stainbrook for Beginning of Both Halves in WMU's CIT Win (mlive - March 17, 2011)

Matt Stainbrook blatantly tripped a Zips player, though the play went unnoticed by the officials.

Stainbrook, a starter all season for WMU, sat the beginning of both halves of Wednesday night’s CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament win against Tennessee Tech.

"It’s not a big deal but at the same time, there’s a certain way we’re going to conduct ourselves," Hawkins said. "Just needed to remind them a little bit that "representing the university, representing our basketball program, representing the city is more important than winning."


Matt Stainbrook Devastated by Ejection: MAC Tournament Insider (Cleveland.com - March 9, 2012)

CLEVELAND, OHIO — Western Michigan's 6’-9”, 290-pound sophomore center Matt Stainbrook was ejected with 9:24 left for elbowing Kent State's Michael Porrini in the face on a rebound.

(4) . . . is one thing that you will never hear Chris Mack say.

WOW!!

Muddled is now actually attacking a beat writer for the local Cincinnati rag for writing 6'10" instead of 6'9".I DEMAND AN INQUIRY! How dare she not mention that he's listed at 290-pounds when he's actually probably 320. How could a local paper not do a full investigation into this kid's past transgressions? I demand she be fired.

What a pathetic loser you are muddled.

He got a haircut after Shannon measured him. I think he is actually 6'9.999 or so.

Another sad day in flyer land. No good news to report I guess. The prospect of another so-so season requires obsessive interest in the competition.

Mack was also named the recipient of the 2010-11 Skip Prosser Award, an annual national award given to the coach who not only has success on the court but displays integrity off it. "Chris Mack is a winner on and off the floor," said ESPN's Jay Bilas.

Another day, another negative blast by the muddled brain. Matt won't even hit the floor for another 18 mos. Nice trade.
Coach Mack likes big men and thinks he can help. He's already proven he can score and rebound against good teams. What is Muddy's point? As usual, he doesn't have one, just vitroil for X.
