Right, I saw all the plays. I disagree. Bad calls.

Thatās fair. My point was the Reds have been quite relevant (about half of the years) since the last time Miami hoops won anything.

Once you realize I only show up here to test out comedy with the goal of trying to make others laugh, it all makes sense. Maybe with the state of MUās big sports, weāre all the same in that regard?
There canāt be many teams in the entire country that commit more fouls than we do. I get it that MAC refs are generally terrible because if they werenāt they would be working better games, but we might as well start each half in the double bonus because weāll be there before the second media timeout anyway.

I did think Jaquel Morris and Kenyon had decent games.

I know itās like comparing apples to oranges, but to highlight a big differenceā¦ā¦
Purdue - a top 5 team in a physical conference = 346 fouls total this year
Miami - well, we know = 485 fouls
That puts us at #293 out of 352 D1 teams at 18.7 in fouls per game. However, there are 5 MAC teams with higher fouls per game than us. Yikes!
Itās been like that ever since Lowe left.
Andy M was really effective last night, but he quickly fouled himself out of the game, playing only 18 minutes. UT really could not defend him. He might have had a triple double if he could keep himself in there for 30-35 minutes. He ended up with 12 points, 6 rebounds, and 6 assists in less than half the game. He was 6 out of 8 from the floor. With Safford out for the game and Andy playing only 18 minutes, we did not have enough fire power to matchup with Toledo. Toledo seldom shuts teams down, they just outscore them, and that is what happened last night.

Taken individually, Yeah, it is a little weird. However,Yellow Number5 has a consistent style. He is always overly optimistic and always looking to collect laugh emojis. Just like Sackman is consistently a bit outrageous in his comments or Eddie is always bringing up interesting/ informative things to switch topics and take us somewhere else. Most of us have a particular style or type of post that people might identify with us. It all contributes to Hawktalk being more interesting and fun than most chat sites. So just roll with the take and enjoy it.

Itās true. Laugh emojis are worth more to me than even my dubious hoard of shit coin crypto currency is.

@The_Sackman is my favorite Millennial. He is also an acquired taste.

I whenever Anderson left the game, I couldnāt help but notice we couldnāt penetrate anywhere close to the paint consistently. Toledo forced everything out to the perimeter. Lairyās slashes to the basket became our go to offense.
Sure I have. Jason Preston. Thatās it. Thatās the joke.
Purdue is single-handedly making court storming a thing again.
