Mercer

Posted: 11/25/2013 11:56:53 AM

Mercer is going to be a tough, tough game for us tomorrow. They return four of their five starters from last year and have a starting five made up entirely of Seniors. They won the regular season Atlantic sun title only to lose to Florida Gulf Coast in the championship game. They were relegated to the NIT and went into Knoxville and soundly beat Tennessee. They have a very good PG in Lanston Hall and a good big man in Daniel Coursey. After seeing the way Morgan State's big man gave us fits this one has me worried.

I completely agree. Mercer would definitely be a top two or three team in the MAC this year. This is a very tough opponent.

I don't know, they aren't a very "sexy" opponent.

I'm surprised this game's not getting more attention than it is. As everyone's said, this is really a quality opponent. I hope the turnout's big (doubtful though since its Thanksgiving week).

Man I almost forgot about these. My dad got pranked by Roy D Mercer. I was on the bus to school when they played it. Hilarious and embarrassing at the very same time

You know what Frank Solich likes most about coaching in the MAC? While he gets older, his coaching competition stays the same age, man.

The real O-H-I-O

I'll be there, but I'm thinking student turnout is going to be VERY light.

What a day at the Convo.....Wow!

Yeah. Everyone that could drive left to miss the Ice/Snow storm. I had to to get back home to VA.

Went a little too far west, let's go SJ Earthquakes!

Looks that way. Unfortunate timing but I've had Wednesday pegged as my travel day.

It would be inappropriate, but the immature side of me would think it's funny to hear a Roy D. Mercer "call" on the speakers.
