Shorts is at least newcomer of the year. Les is coach of the year. Graduate 4 starters and sixth man and play second half without best player? And win the championship? Hands down!! Les is More!!

Un freaking believable! I’m sure I was the only person at the Antioch sports legends crab feed following the game! Great night to be an Aggie AND a crab fan!!!

that and the big difference in 3 point shooting in the 1st half. we were 6-13, while they were 2-11. On the Island, Purchase really hurt us with his 3 pointers, but only had 2 last night (1 in the 1st half). I also agree with BlueGoldAg's statement that they didn't seem ready to play. they went to a full court zone in the 2nd half and got more aggresive but it was late by then.

you know what was a big play? they made a little run early in the second half to bring a 17 point lead down to 11 on a long 3-pointer. and the guy who made it got a 'T'. Shorts made the 2 free throws, John made a 3-pointer and we were up 16 again. that sucked the remaining life out of them.

i think it also helps that he's a good student (graduating a bit early) and had been a great representative of the program and university.

“I will graduate in three weeks. (At that time) I’ll get an agent and move from Davis,”

makes it sounds like he doesn't foresee a possibility of being reinstated for a possible post-season run.

Couple of other observations. Chancellor May was in his courtside seat, interacting with fans throughout the game. Provost Ralph Hexter was sitting behind the basket, wearing what looked like a UCD block jacket -> that guy is a enthusiastic fan! AD Blue is sitting among the fans, getting into the action. Just a real good look for the program.

Also, ran into Bob Biggs at halftime and had a very interesting discussion about the team, their tenacious defense and their grit. That's kind of a unique Davis thing -> coaches from the past sticking around and being active parts of the entire athletic program. It was similar to seeing Sochor sitting up in section 206 dissecting the games!

Well-worth the midweek drive up to watch the game. This is a really enjoyable team to watch. Defense in the first half was stifling. The ball movement has improved tremendously as the season as progressed, and there is a much higher degree of confidence in their outside shooting. Only downside was the high number of turnovers; we've been really good as of late protecting the ball, so the 19 last night was a minor red flag (especially since so many seemed unforced). That steal, save, wild layup of Shorts was really an amazing play. Fun sitting with Agalum and his grandson -> he really seemed to enjoy the atmosphere!

Drive home in the heavy rain wasn't so much fun. Listening to the post-game with Marsh talking to Onyebalu, Hemmings and Les made the 1st 15 minutes enjoyable. that last 60 minutes...not so much. I don't think we can count on help from Poly (v UCSB) or Hawaii (v Fullerton), so we really need to win on Saturday to make the BWT run a real possibility.

Team is playing with a lot of confidence. Good ball movement, good d. They really look confident taking the 3. Good half. Decent crowd

I’ll start a ‘Chima, Chima’ chant if he’s not! In my college days KDVS played a song ‘Free Nelson Mandela’. Catchy Ska song. Substitute Chima Moneke and it works. I was singing it last night for my wife (her favorite player). Google it

we're at day 25 on this saga; you'd think they would be able to get information and render a decision in that amount of time. i still think they are choosing NOT to make a decision, effectively suspending him for the season, in order to avoid any type of public announcement.

just my feel on the situation.

UCSB is going through a similar situation with Cantu and it’s been just as silent. I suspect in these situations, coach and AD must stay quiet

no, he played this season so his eligibility is over

By making no decision they have essentially decided to suspend him for the year. Maybe easier than explaining why.

that’s odd especially since he missed 5 or 6 games earlier

Great drive, terrible defense. He’s left handed, and they left the left side of the key open. They did have our 3 shooters covered!

Hawaii game is a big one; really need to finish top two to avoid Hawaii or LB in first round. Winning out is gonna be a tall order.

Jackson on bench or not there?

Wow. On a romantic weekend down in pismo and turned on espn gamecast as Riverside hit the 3. Next thing I knew it was an Aggie win. I’ll try to find highlights when I get back home Monday! Fullerton and the beach are on tv here. I’ll skip

It would be a shame for him not to get a senior night send off. He quickly became a fan favorite.

I think i agree, especially since they have to head to the islands for Saturday night's game. tough venue. not sure how all the tie breakers would go. of course, if we beat Irvine, we have that over them.

SB has a home games vs LB and Poly, and roadie vs Northridge, so i think this is the best chance for a loss for them. Not sure we can win out to get a tie, but who knows.

Played in 5 games in 2013, starting 3 (from what I can tell). Wright started the opener, Laughrea relieved. Started next week v Reno and next 2. Played in game 5 but Wright had more attempts. No more stats after that. I forgot he played that much.
