It’s free, but you don’t get the dulcet tones of Joe Fisher either.

Updates welcome

I won’t be at my computer, but will be checking here for updates on my phone. Please share early and often!!

4-3 Vandy.

4 minutes in. We’ll try to keep you updated!

Thanks!

Slow start again … interesting …

by BrianSWard on Nov 8, 2010 8:20 PM EST via mobile up reply actions  

6-5 now. 12:50 left in first half.

Super slow. Fes already has 2 fouls. SI already has 6 turnovers, though. Good defense. Offense needs to pick it up…lack of flow on both sides.

by doredarling on Nov 8, 2010 8:21 PM EST up reply actions  

10-7 VU, halfway through the 1st

This is much slower than I expected … Taylor makes it 12-7 with a dunk as I type that.

by parlagi on Nov 8, 2010 8:30 PM EST reply actions  

Rebounds.

We’re being out-rebounded. I hope this doesn’t become a trend…I’d really like to see some improvement from last year.

by doredarling on Nov 8, 2010 8:32 PM EST reply actions  

Now and awful charge on Jeff. These refs won’t let this game speed up

Quote from Joe Fisher

“This isn’t even a good pickup game right now.”

by doredarling on Nov 8, 2010 8:34 PM EST reply actions  

18-16, 5:22 left

Tinsley hits 2 FTs, Odom checking in

by parlagi on Nov 8, 2010 8:42 PM EST reply actions  

UAH beating Alabama 28-26 at the half

Tennessee over Indianapolis 40-34 early in the 2nd, Ferris St. (who?) leading Indiana 51-40 with 7:30 left.

by parlagi on Nov 8, 2010 8:46 PM EST reply actions  

11-0 run, 27-16 now

Shot clock violation on USI gives it back, 2:06 left

by parlagi on Nov 8, 2010 8:50 PM EST reply actions  

My favorite stat of the half.

USI has same number of points as turnovers.

by doredarling on Nov 8, 2010 8:52 PM EST reply actions  

USI announcers are in awe of Vandy's defense

“We can’t even get a shot off.”

31-16 at the half, 15-0 run to close it out.

by parlagi on Nov 8, 2010 8:54 PM EST up reply actions  

Awesome!

That’s what I like to hear. Fear the gold.

by BrianSWard on Nov 8, 2010 8:58 PM EST via mobile up reply actions  

I feel like any time there is an opponent PT:TO ratio of one, you’ve got a pretty good shot.

by The Goche on Nov 8, 2010 8:57 PM EST via mobile up reply actions  

At the half

VU is being out rebounded, but they got into control with almost everything else late in the first half. Any good observations from someone at Memorial?

by doredarling on Nov 8, 2010 8:58 PM EST reply actions  

Halftime stats?

Scoring, boarding, dimeing?

by BrianSWard on Nov 8, 2010 9:00 PM EST via mobile reply actions  

I'm waiting for Gametracker to catch up...

I couldn’t type fast enough as they were read on the radio.

by doredarling on Nov 8, 2010 9:01 PM EST up reply actions  

I know it's just an exhibition

But Indianapolis is on a 20-3 run at UT to start the second half.

by parlagi on Nov 8, 2010 9:01 PM EST reply actions  

Looks like Shirts-ville for Henderson

At the very least CKS is trying out life without him. Fes and Steve had 2 fouls for at least the last 8 mins, maybe 10, but no Josh, just 8 minutes of 2 foul Steve. But Steve actually probably played better after he got 2, and he did it without fouling, so props on that.

Still kind of scary seeing both guys in foul trouble.

by The Goche on Nov 8, 2010 9:06 PM EST via mobile reply actions  

That's one of my biggest fears.

Fes and ST in trouble and no great backups.

by doredarling on Nov 8, 2010 9:09 PM EST up reply actions  

it'll happen ...

but honestly, we have enough depth at the forward positions to make it work. go small or go with three forwards, and we’ll present matchup problems that counterbalance our lack of size. we need goulbourne and odom to be warriors, though.

by doredarling on Nov 8, 2010 9:08 PM EST reply actions  

21-0 run now, up 37-16

JJ just hit a jumper in transition, and the play before Tins had a steal and a dish to Andre for a big 1 handed alley oop. It was nasty.

by The Goche on Nov 8, 2010 9:14 PM EST via mobile reply actions  

Man, they finally scored.

A second half shut-out would have been fun.

by doredarling on Nov 8, 2010 9:19 PM EST up reply actions  

A 4-0 USI run!

So is this how opponents feel when the football team strings together 2 first downs?

by parlagi on Nov 8, 2010 9:19 PM EST reply actions  

Our run ended at 23

They have scored 6 in a row.

by The Goche on Nov 8, 2010 9:20 PM EST via mobile reply actions  

Festus hits his free throw, 50-26

Festus hitting 60-65% from the line this year would be a huge boost.

by parlagi on Nov 8, 2010 9:33 PM EST reply actions  

I haven't heard a Bama score

Just saw on Twitter that UT is at great risk of losing…goshdarnit.

by doredarling on Nov 8, 2010 9:42 PM EST up reply actions  

Update:

Apparently UT did lose. 79-65.

Bama up by 3 with 4 minutes left.

by doredarling on Nov 8, 2010 9:44 PM EST up reply actions  

Tennessee blew it, 79-65

Bama’s ahead of UAH 54-51 with 3:50 left.

Auburn’s also down to Columbus State 43-37, 7:30 left.

by parlagi on Nov 8, 2010 9:43 PM EST up reply actions  

Meanwhile, in the important game

Cleveland State defeats Baldwin-Wallace 68-39

Vandy up 70-35. Goulbourne with a slam! 25 turnovers for USI, and Meriwether, Duffy and Siakam are in.

We’re at the final media timeout.

by parlagi on Nov 8, 2010 9:49 PM EST reply actions  

Smart and Siakam add buckets, 77-40 final

Southern Indiana scores with like 5 seconds left to avoid the doubling up.

by parlagi on Nov 8, 2010 9:57 PM EST reply actions  

Final stats

The good:
Jenkins: 20 points, 5-12, 4-8 3 PT, 6-6 FT
Taylor: 13 points, 5-12, 3-4 FT, 6 rebounds
Walker: 5 points, all from the line, but 8 rebounds, 2 assists, and a block
Holding USI to 25.4% shooting (1-17 from 3) and forcing 30 turnovers.

The less good:
Fuller had a tough night, no points (0-3, all from 3) in 18 minutes, with 1 assist and 1 TO.
Festus having 3 fouls in 12 minutes.
37.5% shooting overall, 28.6% from outside.

by parlagi on Nov 8, 2010 10:06 PM EST reply actions  

And of course

UT 64, D-II Indianapolis 79 (exh).

Train, I’m sure you are gutted at having missed being able to see them in to the airport on their triumphant return…
