Let's go!

Boiler Up

 

[Beeazlebub]

Isn't Basil suspended for two or three games? That won't mean much for the game on Tuesday, but will hurt against 'Nova.

 

[Dryfly88]

Isn't Basil suspended for two or three games? That won't mean much for the game on Tuesday, but will hurt against 'Nova.

He will be eligible for Nova. Suspended for exhibition games and McNeese State game.

 

[Jishguy]

Basil may be the wild card against Villanova. No scouting report since his sophomore year.

That's right, I forgot. I will correct it.

 

[Beeazlebub]

He will be eligible for Nova. Suspended for exhibition games and McNeese State game.

First three games are:

1) Southern Indiana tonight
2) McNeese State 11/11
3) Villanova 11/14

Am I missing another exhibition somewhere?

 

[Zanzibar528]

First three games are:

1) Southern Indiana tonight
2) McNeese State 11/11
3) Villanova 11/14

Am I missing another exhibition somewhere?

He's suspended for the WVU scrimmage too.

 

[Beeazlebub]

He's suspended for the WVU scrimmage too.

Roger, forgot about the scrimmage. Good to know he'll be available when we kick Nova's ass on the 14th!

 

[PU52Chevy]

We are going to hear J. Taylor's name all night tonight.....but may be SIU J. Taylor since he is their leading scorer.

But if we get a big lead look for our J. Taylor to get some good minutes.

Boiler Up!
