We got ourselves a HELLUVA basketball coach!
I'll say it again....

hardest working team in college basketball....thank you coach Pike
Quietly confident that these statement games will carry them through the spring and summer workouts and recruiting....
There's been a few clunkers but almost every game these kids play like it's their last. A lot of that must come from the staff but the players are the ones who must be willing to do it.
Pikiell told us at a Court Club meeting that he "wants players who do the things it takes no talent to do." That is easy to root for. Everything else is gravy at this point.
This season has been a resounding success in my eyes.
Pikiell is a winner --in life and on the hardwood. We're lucky to have him and kids who are willing to believe in him.....
A subtle but effective coaching move in the 1st half. CJ was on the bench and we had the ball. Ball went out of bounds with about 5.5 seconds on the shot clock. Just before the refs set the play he sent in CJ for Shaq for the offensive play. CJ got the put back basket. Great substitution.
As a 24 yr season ticket holder I have seen my highs and my lows in the last few years. This team makes me so very proud. Congratulations to Coach Pikiell and the team.
