An Anonymous Eagle Podcast? Eh, Why Not: Third Time's the Charm

And while I had answers to some of your questions, they eventually became victims of the extreme length of your program and my brain damage. So a few comments:

1. Nice breakdown of the bubble Warrior Brad. I think we all agree that we’re pretty safe in that respect as it stands now and that our destiny is definitely in our hands, but it starts tonight. If we drop a home game to St. Johns we could very well be tetering off the edge. Which leads me to my second comment.

2. St. Johns – I describe them as a less talented Louisville……meaning, they thrive on hustle, creating turnovers, and riding big waves of momentum. They also don’t shoot particularly well, so it’s in MU’s best interest to give up the long jumper before the penetration to the basket. All that said, MU wins if A) they take care of the basketball, B)shoots a reasonably well %, and C) hustles back on defense to force StJohns to get into a half court offense rather than allowing easy transition buckets

And they will not send out a technician until I troubleshoot with them over the phone…….which can’t happen when I’m at work……which can’t happen until this evening……which means, no viewing of the game tonight……then we’re going to Iowa, to Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York…..then we’re going to Washington to take over the White House! Whaaaaaaaaaa!

Whew! That felt good

Chris Singleton, the team’s leading scorer and rebounder, fractured his foot and will miss significant time. Can only help MU if they don’t close well down the stretch.
