the otterbein-marietta game was great. Anyone who had a chance to see it certainly saw fantastic game. The cards certainly look to be rallying around the old man right now and it's great too see. Too bad some of that outside shooting wasn't there earlier in the season. Davis might not have been double and triple teamed every time he received the ball down low if it had. Ending of the game was fun to watch. Youtube already has a video up of it.

Why delete my post ....? ? ?

[Pat Coleman]

Just enough already -- you took his post and twisted it to meet your predetermined agenda. You got what you wanted, right?

[ste24vie]

Well, here's something very positive.......there is new hope in Westerville....

[ohiofan1954]

this is going to be a great week. Three teams within one game. Marietta seems to have the favorable schedule getting to play both John Carroll and Cap at home the final week. Could we have a three way tie for the lead come saturday night? Who would get the tie-breaker , there must be several scenarios? Never would have thought a little while back Marietta could be sitting pretty right now but they just might get to host the whole thing this year. Add also this saturday night will be a great night at otterbein and this will be one great week of basketball too end the season.

[ste24vie]

Wow...I did not know the OAC tournament has completely changed this year.

[ohiofan1954]

wow marietta sure cout it on cap tonight. Same for JC over Muskingum. JC-Marietta will be a good one Saturday. Three way tie is out of the question now though.

[ste24vie]

There is no dominant team in the OAC this year. Marietta without Halter is just ordinary. JCU is up and down. Wilmington without TWhite is very ordinary. Otterbein's program is unsettled, lots of returning players from last year have disappeared prolly because of the coach. ONU might be the biggest surprise so far. Mt Union and Muskingum and Heidelberg are all struggling. I thought BW would be at or near the top.  Just goes to show, once again, the OAC is up for grabs.

Five losses is gonna win the conference, very ordinary year for the OAC. Looks like you better win the conference tourney ta DANCE.

Huge game at Marietta on Saturday.

[ste24vie]

Oh wait, I almost forgot about the latest rumor in Westerville. Jon VanderWol has applied and been accepted as the next coach of the Cardinals, to be announced at the end of the season .....GO CARDS

[ste24vie]

If it's true, you heard it here first .......

[WAlum]

Marietta drills Cap setting up a Saturday showdown for the title!  I didnt know Otterbein was ready to name the successor to Reynolds.  Will it be announced Saturday at the game Stevie?

[Pat Coleman]

Guys, there's no chance that will happen on that time frame. Doesn't Otterbein need to hire an athletic director, too?

No coaching search moves that quickly unless they are promoting from within. Stevie is engaging in some wishful thinking at best, rumor-mongering at worst.

No coaching search moves that quickly unless they are promoting from within.

Here's hoping.
