2018-19 Big Sky Basketball

[Mvemjsunpx]

Nice to know they can put their foot on the throat of the worst team in FCS and keep it there...

12 different players were in the game for the Griz and only one didn't score. I don't follow much outside of the Griz but Idaho seems pretty terrible.

They're 4-18 and they only have one healthy upperclassman.

I know Akoh was out but I’m still encouraged by how we’re playing. Might make some noise in the conference tournament.

Akoh being out was huge. Griz are a mediocre team without him in the lineup. Next year scares me.

Well, we already figured the team would be down next year. It'll be near impossible to replace Rorie, Oguine, Moorehead, and Akoh (& Dorsey if he doesn't get a 6th. year) without missing a beat, and it'll be even more impossible if DeCuire gets poached. Next year's team looks like it could end up in a similar situation to what we saw Tinkle's final year.

There's reason for hope, though. Dorsey seems like a good candidate for a 6th. year, Miller &/or Selchuk could be good, Kramer could find some skill, Anderson could figure out how to play more than 5 seconds without fouling somebody (seriously, he's averaging 11.8 fouls-per-40-minutes ), etc.

They are playing a very young team this year, right?

One again the Griz open up a 20 point lead, 40-20, then hang on by their fingernails for the win. I just don't get it...EVERY. SINGLE. GAME. My heart can't take much more of this...

Well… I didn't expect them to win this game at all coming in, so I'm not gonna complain.

It was a big win, too. The Griz are now heavy favorites to win the regular-season title even if Akoh's out (we know he won't play Saturday) since they already hammered NoCo on the road and Weber's effectively out of the race.

Akoh is done. He had surgery already on his knee.

I didn't see that post on eGriz until just now. Assuming it's correct, that's bad… but I think the Griz are still the favorite to go to the NCAAs and the heavy favorite to win the regular-season title. The biggest threat is Weber with a healthy Braxton in the tourney. I'm not too worried about NoCo, especially since they don't seem to be a zone team under Linder.

A poster on eGriz is saying they saw Akoh running up & down stairs at the Lady Griz game today. I doubt he'd be doing that if he just had knee surgery.

Huh. Conflicting stories on eGriz. Never heard of that before!
