Semaj refused to lose and was clearly the stud tonite. Redford gaining confidence. That walk-on defensive guy has won two games for us. (Amos)

Greatly exaggerated by a few but I think this is close to what many were expecting. Still feels like a big down year to me. It sucks when you are used to making the tourney almost every year and most likely won't this year.

The other stud tonight was Bona's sophomore 7 ft. center. What someone really has to explain to me is how he shifted from soccer to basketball. How did that beast play soccer! They also said he has the largest shoe size in the league.

On a side note, it is being reported on the Xavier board that the team had to travel (is travelling) 100 miles to Erie, PA, because the Olean airport has no de-icing truck. This is not the kind of press/info the Bonnies need:

Olean airport has no de-icing truck. We get bumped to the Erie Airport... 100 miles away. "No one said it is going to be easy."

Why in the hell wouldn't they just fly out of Buffalo or even Bradford if that's the case?

Quick question to Bonny fans. What were the students chanting when Semaj was at the line with 5 seconds left? It kind of sounded like USA.

res · 01-17-2013, 04:15 AM

I believe it was, "You will miss..."

**xu95** · 01-17-2013, 05:52 AM

I thought it was USA too, which I thought was funny since he is from Cincinnati OH and they have a 7 ft. center that isn't.

you will miss is probably more accurate.

Why not just run the plane thru the welding co warehouse.

Come on, it scores big for originality and working in of recent events.

Bona84 · 01-17-2013, 07:31 AM

I guess, if 10 years ago is considered recent.

I highly doubt it, since the Bonnies are practically a United Nations committee.

I wonder why the Olean airport, located where it is, doesn't have a de-icing truck. That seems strange.

It's by design. That airport is only used by opposing teams.

Hah! Good one.
(And it worked. They are currently on a bus heading back home. 4 hours to go. You made 'em pay for that win.)
