thanks for the commentary Reserved...
Despite being a devout fan of the dips, you are quite objective about the team and how they play.

Reserved, how did the northeastern kid look in the messiah scrimmage?

The Messiah fans sitting near me said Fernandez tore is ACL.
Messiah definitely out-hustled F&M.  F&M never seemed to go aggressively after a loose ball.

WOW!- Hate seeing any kid with an ACL, I believe someone stated two F&M players out with ACL's. Terrible, womder what Messiah would be like with that kid.

Anyway, F&M needs to figure the one spot out. I think I am going to see Dickinson v Hobart Friday then head to F&M Saturday.

F&M will have to get improved play from the one spot.

F&M has no PG and struggle to handle the ball- surprised Messiah did not press.

I think we're about to see how much GM meant to the Dips. F&M's preseason national ranking is based on 4 starters returning from a 28-3 team, but I think F&M would have lost at least 8-10 games last year without Milligan.

I thought Brewer would hold down the fort until Rogo or Figueroa could run the show. It sounds like that's a long way from happening.

The transfer didn't play much, but he had a couple turnovers when he played.
Rogo didn't play until the 3rd 'half'.
Phelps played some at the point.
Brewer may hold the spot for awhile.

As the season is ready to tip-off, please keep Goucher's Damon Brooks in your thoughts and prayers, if you so choose. He has been a fighter, but that doesn't mean it will be easy - despite the fact he says he is excited to see basketball being played once again.

I post this story here, because of the classy move by Johns Hopkin's Bill Nelson... who apparently contacted Goucher and told them he wanted to renew the intracity rivalry between the two schools... play a game this November at Goucher... and suggested making it a benefit for Brooks. Bravo.

Good start by F&M.  Hard to get a handle on their potential. PSU Harrisburg didn't put up much of a fight except for a short time in the middle of the first half. Points were well distributed with Hayk's 16 leading the way. F&M's height intimidated PSU on PSU's offensive, and F&M took advantage of their height on offense.  Brewer adequately held down the point guard position, and Rogo and Figuera showed potential.  F&M's three point shooting was good.  Several threes barely missed the mark.  Foul shooting was as usual, only 12 for 21.  F&M missed several easy shots which will need to be made in a very competitive game.

any of the F&M fans read anything into the 2-0 start?  with conference play starting tonight, i guess we'll get a good handle on things

Grinnell embarrasses D3 basketball.

onetinsoldier

it just shows the culture of our me-first society that the only D3 bball exposure on ESPN this calendar year is a guy selfishly scoring 138 points in a game.  Reserved seat is right, its an embarrassment
Go ahead and hate your neighbor, Go ahead and cheat a friend. Do it in the name of Heaven, You can justify it in the end. There won't be any trumpets blowing Come the judgement day,

Agreed. The coach should be fired for allowing this. The school has zero morals or integrity!

Grinell is a very good school. The fact that this kid scored so many points is ridiculous, no doubt. When he was interviewed, he said that the team all pitched in and wanted him to score as many points as possible. That made the game into a circus. 

"My thought was 'Hey, man, the kid's got it going. I'm going to let him go,'" he said (coach of Grinell).
Fincham (coach of opponent, Faith Baptist Bible) said he wasn't offended by Taylor's pursuit of the record. In fact, Fincham decided at halftime that it would try to get at least 50 points for his own player, David Larson, who finished with the quietest 70-point night in the history of basketball. He broke the school record of 47 and gave his teammates a reason to hold their heads high.
