Re: Xavier Basketball
Nice win for the Muskies.
My Dores have no heart.

Re: Xavier Basketball
Lots of room to grow for the Muskies. I wasn't particularly impressed with either team tonight, to tell you the truth. But as Skip used to say about road games: "Get in, get a win, get out." No style points needed on the road. Happy to have the win.

Re: Xavier Basketball
A road win at an SEC team's gym is nothing to sneeze at. Plus Vandy has some real talent.
Holloway and Lyons will take X a long way.

Re: Xavier Basketball
The Xavier guards simply took over late in the game. It was beautiful to watch.

Re: Xavier Basketball
Their middle is sitting on the bench, Ezili. When he comes back that will help them out a lot.
Good win for X. Holloway is as good as gets for a guard. He should carry them a long way this season. I could see them as a 3 or 4 seed very easily.

Re: Xavier Basketball
As a UD fan it pains me to say this, but this is a pretty special xavier team. The entire game I just knew that they would find a way to win it, I've just come to expect it. There isn't another player in the game I would rather have the ball in the hands of at the end of a game needing a score than Holloway. He's on a level all by himself.
Now I need a drink, lol. |

Re: Xavier Basketball
Beating Butler always has a particularly nice feel to it. Hearing Xavier chants ring through an emptying Hinkle Fieldhouse was a lot of fun. Now on to The Crosstown Shootout where hopefully X will put together their first full 40 of the year.

Re: Xavier Basketball
Wells 4, walkon 4, Lyons 2, Tu 1
That 4 for Wells is pretty damned stiff when you consider it means missing a trip to Hawaii. Not sure if he'll make the trip or do Christmas in Raleigh. |

Re: Xavier Basketball
I agree but clearly the UC fans do not. They think he should have received at least as much as Yancy. Ludicrous. UC would not have even suspended Holloway.
