Ralph,

I have not kept up with the season like I did in the past seasons.  I have seen MC play once and while they are a solid team I know Coach Jones has had better teams.  Who do you like in the ASC tourney and is the winner of the tourney the only team the ASC will have in the NCAA?

Ralph,

I all I know is that when I played at MC you guys always seemed to have a big man who could change the outcome of a game.  My freshman year there was Tudman (sp.); I also remeber Aragon and Mania was very good.  Very good at flopping too. 
I have no doubt that Coach Holmes will bring in a couple studs.

All I can say is "WOW!"  Congrats to VWC and all their fans.  Very disappointing performance by the Choctaws.  However, VWC had a lot to do with that performance.  Good luck to you guys tonite.  Apparently we still have a long way to go before we can be considered among the nation's elite.

Matt and Scottiedoug,

Let's not forget that all of Maryville's recent NCAA losses have come on the road at Mississippi College.  I remember a few years ago when you guys ended our season at your place.  Granted, this year's Choctaw squad is the best I remember for sometime (Ralph?).  My point is that it becomes very hard to go on the road and advance.  Maryville's scenario from last week has now become the Choctaw's scenario this week.  It was a lot to ask of your team to come in and knock off MC in Clinton.  It will be as equally challenging for the the Chocs to get by VWC.

I think you guys have a great program and your coach does a great job with his teams.  Who's to say MC won't be playing at Maryville next year at this time and you guys have the advantage.  We lose a lot of very talented players after this year and next year may be somewhat of a rebuilding year.  However, Coach Jones and his staff usually do a pretty good job of filling the empty spots (JUCO).

What is the seating capacity at VWC?

Matt,

I told you so.

I do not mean any disrespect to anyone on this board.  My point was simply that MC is very talented club and VWC is going to have their hands full.  Mike Jones will have this team ready and I am sure that VWC and all of their fans will be ready. 

My previous posts were in response to an all ODAC final to get to the final 4.   

I know that VWC played Mary Hardin-Baylor ealier in the season and lost in a close game.  They also defeated a good Hardin simmons team on the road in overtime.  MC defeated UMHB at home early in the year (75-47) and Hardin Simmons twice, including the ASC Championship game.  MC defeated HSU 70-67 at HSU.  I know you can not base the outcome on these stats but it sounds like these two teams are pretty evenly matched.

I just feel that if MC plays as they are capable they have a great chance to win.

Should be a good on Friday!

Go Chocs!!!!

Diehard,

I am also an alum.


NC,

They will soon find out that this MC team is for real.

BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

VWC can not beat Mississippi College.  It does not matter where the game is played.

Go Chocs!! 8)

I told you Maryville wasn't going to win.  What are you so upset for Matt?

just another matchup between the chocs and scots
how many does this make since the first in 99
these teams need to just start playing during the regular season

Don't think Randy lambert couldn't handle MIKE JONES who MIKE JONES who MIKE JONES

No,

Randy can't handle Mike Jones.  Maryville can't handle MC.  Another Sweet 16!

Ralph is just mad because once again March has rolled around and McMurry only has next year to look forward to.  He wants the Choctaws to lose so bad its pathetic.

Come on Ralph, be honest.  You say you are cheering for the ASC but that is only if the team playing does not include MC.

Does it kill you to give MC some credit?


Mattgrub,

No way Maryville beats MC in Clinton.  But keep cheering, it is amusing.

Go Chocs

MC played a great game, jumping out on Oxy pretty quick. I will say, however, that MC let up a little bit. The Chocs held em to 18 in the first half, but they then allowed 50 in the second. We now take on Maryville tomorrow, and if (I mean when) we win it'll be us against the VWC bracket winner.

Still not exactly sure how DJ beat out Tim for the East POY because Tim is a heck of a player while DJ tends to create alot of turnovers.

Hudson had a great night again. As did Marcus.

I was not impressed with the Oxy played. I just imagined that a team that is considered good enough to be in the NCAA tourney would put on a better show than that.

GO CHOCS!!!

Chocsrock34,

I do agree with you that MC did let up a little in the second half but they only gave up 33 in the second half, not 50.  They will be ready for tonite.

Go Chocs!

Hey Spence,

Careful what you wish for!!!!

Go Chocs

Congrats to UMHB and MC.  Represent the ASC well!
