Users on the old dominion basketball forum are complaining about it as well. You would think someone on the cameras would realize how bad it is.

So Dan actually brought EC back in just to take that last 3. It's definitely an attempt to build his confidence. Still not sure the last shot VS Providence was a great idea...but let's hope EC stays 'back'!

Amazing that we held ODU to 17 points at the half without Hassan. Great team defense. Players are hustling a lot more tonight.

That was cathartic. Maybe our best half of the season against a quality opponent. Is it too much to ask that we at least win the second half even if we don't dismantle them again? Goal: win this game by 15+.

That play at the end of the half doesn't work against a better team - also berry deserves more minutes ... big body down low...plays solid D and active on the offensive glass. We saw him do it against a better Dayton team last year too.

I'm not saying to give up on KI for the year, but he can't play right now. He's borderline useless at this point. He's got to have his minutes trimmed back until he gets right.

Yeah that was insane. I get yelled at anytime I bring up the refs so I wasn't going to say anything, but glad someone else did. It was horrible.

Yup, and that's what kills the team against good teams and late in close games.

You can't win doing the dribble/pass around the perimeter for 25 seconds then try to force something under the wire

We get a lead and try to sit on it...totally lose our aggressiveness....that's Hurley's philosophy...he's even said it....against better teams it does not work.......thank goodness ODU can not score.....

but a win's a win...just don't try and do it against Houston or on the road anywhere.....

A win is a win, but that's about as ugly as it gets. Shot 32% from the field, had 7 assists to 15 turnovers, 46% from the FT line. Just embarrassing. How this team beat Cincinnati is beyond me.

And Iverson must have incriminating photos of Hurley because I can't think of any conceivable reason why he's still starting. Look at his stats tonight: 0 points, 4 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 steals, 0 blocks, 2 turnovers and 4 fouls. That's dreadful!! You'd be better off starting just 4 guys. Now look at Akele's stats with fewer minutes played. Akele needs to be in the starting lineup and getting extended minutes. Period.

Nothing accomplished tonight beyond a W.
James Naismith may have rolled over in his grave midway through the 2nd half.
Jarvis and Jared completely off. EC showed flashes in 1st half with more explosive plays, but then disappeared in 2nd.

We made 1 good offensive basketball play tonight, it involved Andre Berry and ended in a layup.
He needs to play more. It is extremely hard to run offense if you cannot throw the ball into the paint.

Most hideous game in memory, by both teams.
13-28 free throws.
Iverson, zero points, 4 fouls.
Why is he going backwards? We know he can do
far better than the last few games.
EC a good half of basketball.
Need some kind of interior threat.
Langevine doesn;t fit the bill, right now.
It's a win, so that's all that matters.

JG cannot shoot FT's.....but our bench outshot [percentage wise] the starters by a MILE.......

We were ugly, ODU was beyond ugly.....

And we won by 12....amazing.....

Our defense is going to have to carry us the next few weeks.....

What is this of which we speak? Uptempo , more scoring? What is that? Anybody know? Someone want to ask Dan what it is?

Oh wait, he doesn't know either.....We need an offensive coordinater in the worst way....

PeteRI, that's one more than against PC....we're movin' on up.......ridiculous.....
