Ridiculous.  We made fun of other schools having High School gyms when we were in C-USA.   A high school gym would be an upgrade from this.

Who else loves the female announcer?  Home shopping network at its finest.  Fits right into the venue.

She's fine. I'd be more worried about how we can't do the most basic basketball things.

MU won't play at Morehead or EKU because of their gyms, but we play In a ballroom.

Is Jim Justice cutting a check for this?

[MUonium]

bricks.  just like the women, can't finish and getting out hustled in the paint (or out jumped)

[herd1990]

What's worse.....  Our shooting or that wallpaper in the ballroom we are playing in?

I'm assuming this travesty is our payment for the baseball stadium.

[parshall2marshall]

What I was afraid of. Slaughtered away from home.

-------------------------------------

Halftime stats :

8-30 from the floor, including 0-9 from three point range.

Gave up at least 9 Offensive rebounds to a smaller team again.

Running at Radford 3-pt shooters while we shoot off-balance, contested shots.

Probably end up losing a close one.

No defense, no shooting to speak of from inside or outside, Zero offensive cohesion/execution, our players can't even execute a basic SWITCH on D, which most players at this level mastered in Junior High.  But on that note, a ballroom playing venue is more than sufficient to the exhibit of Junior High "Heelbilly" Ball by Dandy Dan early in Season 10!!  23-9!!  Hope everyone is having "FUN"!!

[herd1990]

3-20 from the field and 0-6 from 3.  I thought Dan said in practice we are shooting 50% from the field and 44% from 3.

Ball room basketball 🏀

Is McKee hurt?

can you name this cookie?  ______ Butter

[MUonium]

how can the ncaa allow the baskets to be in the dark?

[coalherd]

Pretty obvious that even with a slew of new faces on this team Coach D'Antoni remains CONSISTENT, putting NO emphasis whatsoever on REBOUNDING as he has done with his previous 9 squads!!

[herd1990]

Just when I thought women's basketball was tough to watch, the Herd Men's team takes the floor.  Good gawd this is terrible.  Hopefully they show up in the second half.  This is like watching a men's rec league game.  But you should see us in practice!

Danny being Danny. Won't play at Morehead, EKU and doesn't want to play at Akron. But all for this idiotic set up.

[goherd24]

These rims and this whole thing is terrible lol. Hoping we never do this again

[goherd24]

Feels like you're watching a rec league game at the Y. Awful atmosphere

[RollingThunder80]

If not for Martin we would be down 20.  Voyles looked really bad.  Switching on D was bad all around.  Missed layups. Can't make a 3.  I don't think we could play any worse.
