I still think MSOE is a contender in the conf. tournament. I think coach miller blew their chance at a title with some questionable moves. I hope the guy knows what he is doing because he is losing bayiha and mikos after this year.

Coach miller im sure you read this. Shorten your F'in bench to 8 maybe 9 F'in people please.  Run some pick n roles for mikos and bayiha and let them play to their strenghs instead of running your bootleg offense that only appears to be good at running out the shotclock.

Ok thats enough hating from me!

Does anyone on this board talk about something other than Aurora? Haha. I was just catching up and it seemed rather Aurora-centric. Anyone with predictions for the NIIC Tourney in a couple weeks? Obviously a number of you think highly of Aurora (and rightly so, I suppose), but where do you think the rest of the field will finish? Personally, in spite of a low body count to start with, a pair of season-ending injuries and a couple problems during conference play, I think the Regents will show up to the tourney with their A game and surprise a few people...then again, I think they'll surprise a few people in the next two weeks, starting with Benedictine and then hitting Eureka and Clarke. While the Clarke game should be a good one (77-87 loss for the Regents last time), the Regents have shown that they are capable of taking down Benedictine and Eureka and, if they succeed in doing it again, will move upwards in the rankings in time for the tourney...what do the rest of you think?

If Brian Miller does read this board, and he uses what he reads here in planning, I can assure you MSOE has no chance to win the conference tournament. I'm sure some people at MSOE read this board, but would bet Miller is not one of them. MSOE is a group of talented individual players, not a team. Lakeland and Edgewood are teams, and one of them will win the tournament.

Bust Ya'll

WLC  moving up in the conference...look for another win on saturday against Edgewood.  We beat them once why not again eh?  Hey its also good to see Brian Miller taking the heat instead of Skip,  I swear its a sign of the Apocalypse when WLC has not been ripped on within 5-6 posts.  Way to have a good Lutheran attitude D3!

PS- yes it would be nice to have those guys back, along with Metzger, and the "flying knueppel brothers"  but hey, thats not going to happen (unless Josh takes off his tie and puts on a uniform)  So i will gladly stick with the guys we got now.  Just remember for as long as you live...nothing will be as good as it used too

PSS- showtime....you are an idiot, sorry bout it

Well, I believe an assistant coach used to be a poster.
Anyway, I disagree that MSOE will not be a contender in the conference tournament, but they have a long way to go with not alot of time (losing to Marian (on a bank three pointer) and being down 7 at half was not a good start). They have been searching for an identity on offense all season. When pressured against good defenses (Lawrence and Lakeland) the offense falls apart and Mikos tries heaving up threes and Floyd tries to drive into 3 guys... If MSOE can take adavntage of the mismatch Scott Murphy provides on the inside they can beat Lakeland. But right  now the gap between Lakeland and MSOE is alot larger than the gap between MSOE and the rest of conference-Lost to Edgewood, taken to overtime by WLC, down by seven at half vs. Dominican, down by about 8 with 5 minutes to go @Concordia, lost to Marian, and losing at half to Maranatha.
Anyway I think it was more the heat of the moment that got to Coach Miller in the Lakeland game (that was the first T i had seen him take) than anything else  He saw the opportunity of Mikos and Bayiha slipping away.

Well he was only a couple geometric dimensions from being D3's Bob Knight (Ball vs. Chair) against Lakeland. And I'm not sure how many other coaches would blame the heat of the moment for marching out to center court to protest a call that wasn't even that bad in the first place.

I take it you haven't been to many WIAC games in your time?

The Way

The Way I See It,

I guess no one was at the game when Miller used to coach at Lakeland and he pretended he was the punter for the Green Bay Packers during the game.
And that my good friends....is The Way I See It.

Fishguy:
Im pretty sure he reads this forum.  I asked a couple people if they have any isos besides their offense. The response was that there are a few set plays that are pretty good, only there is always somebody who doesnt know the play and f's it up. Im not gonna hate on miller(anymore), but i think we can all agree its partly the coaches responsibility to make sure people know the plays.

Also, even though im not sure if they can win the tournament, they have a chance. I would say they are still going to be in the championship @ lakeland.

Good point. Maybe a little bit of both?

I Hate WLC

I agree with the WIAC comment, the LMC (minus the occasional Larson, and apparently Miller, rampages) the coaches are fairly calm.  From what I remember about Bennett at Point, he used to spend more time on the court then he did by the bench.

I'm loving that Edgewood scored 73 points and their high scorer had 14.  Can't wait for the tourney.

I am extremely disappointed that I am missing Lutheran's visit to the Dome, but I will be highly intoxicated at Lambeau.  My boy paannounce will handle things just fine though.

Edgewood 81, WLC 70.......subject to change if things change in the next couple of days.

Another question from a new poster.... When does the LMC awards come out? At the end of the regular season  or after the conference tournament? Who are the front runners for each award POY, ROY, 1st team and so on. Anybody want to toss ideas out??????

fishguy

The meeting to pick the all-conference team is after the LMC tournament. So the player of the year award will lean big time on who wins the tournament - at least that's my opinion. If MSOE wants to win the tournament, Mikos and/or Floyd will have to be huge for them. I don't think there is a clear front runner - Mikos and Floyd from MSOE, Peets from Concordia, James from Lakeland have to be on the short list. If Lakeland wins the tourney after winning the league, I think POY has to be James. He doesn't have the flashy stats, but he's the clear floor leader of a very solid team.

Rookie of the year has to be Rogers from Lakeland - no one else is even on the same planet as that kid. I believe there is a 10 guy first team and then all honorable mention. Lakeland will get two - probably Saiberlich. Edgewood will get 1-2 - Cooper, Averkamp maybe. Hagel from Lutheran is first team. Some others i am forgetting.
