Last game of Jones!?

That is honestly one of the better commercials I have seen produced out of Grand Forks. I enjoyed it!

My question is why do more fans show up for a game at the Ralph rather than the Betty? Doesn't really make sense to me other than the games at the Ralph seem to usually be advertised a lot more.

I was just saying he's a junior. It's not a given anyone will be back....

I just don't even know why we have to post in this. As I said before, if you have any sort of basketball knowledge you would know that our record would be better with a different coach. We just keep repeating the same thing over and over. 3 years of above .500 basketball is not acceptable and should not be at this university.

Lost to an Adidas team.... How?

He's back next year.

Do you have a list of players in the conference you would take over him? Obviously Harvey, probably Bolomboy, and the transfer at Montana but I honestly cannot think of a lot of other players. The guards from Sac State are nice but I believe Hooker will be better when he's a senior, may even be better now. Senglin from WSU could be put ahead of Hooker too but I have not seen that many players come to the Betty and make me think I would rather have him than Quinton. Yanku from NAU was also impressive but I would definitely take Hooker.

I hope Miami makes it to the Target Center only for the fact that hopefully their band will come and they play the Game of Thrones intro.

I really hope these two live up to the hype given on here. Who all has seen Crandall play? Wasn't that prolific of a score on DeLaSalle but he didn't have to be because that was a good team. Very underrecruited, don't know if he even had any other D1 offers so I'm just hoping he's half as good as people are expecting!

I agree completely about Shanks. Should be very good down the road. Has a nice shot. Hasn't made many threes this year but clearly is capable of making them. He should watch Frank the Tank and model his game after his. Probably not quite as agile and mobile but both can stretch the floor.

Doesn't mean he isn't one of the best. Only a sophomore.

I believe he's a captain this season.

I don't know if there are very many players in the Big Sky that I would take over him. Tyler Harvey is one but other than that the list has to be short.

I liked what I saw from Cashman in this game. I have been liking what he provides a lot more than Shanks lately. Better rebounder and does not seem to force his offensive game nearly as much as Shanks does.

Hooker is clearly our best player, its not even close. My question is what does he have to do in his junior and senior season to get looks from the NBA and possibly being drafted? I think it is probably a long shot beings he doesn't have much height and probably isn't fast enough to overcome that. I just think it is interesting to think about.

Parks

Not sure if we still had an offer out to Brady Ernst but he tore his ACL last night. Would definitely be a good get still, just redshirt him next season.

I'm guessing so too, just caught me off guard.

He's a sophomore but: Personal: Born to Kai and Karen Kaluna on January 10, 1985

I badly want video boards but I can't imagine it having much of an affect on attendance.

If people think Jones doesn't necessarily deserved to be fired, fine. But don't tell me that you don't think there are better options out there that would do significantly better with the talent here. I don't want to hear the whole "he doesn't get paid enough". It's not as if paying him more will make him a better coach. I guarantee we can find a better head coach than Jones by giving them the same salary he has. Now if we do fire him I would guess we up the pay a bit but I'm just saying. Anybody who has any sort of basketball knowledge or common sense in general can see that this team and last years team could be so much better if they were just well coached!

The fact that Shields didn't play in the second half is ridiculous. I don't even know if he played after he went on a little 6 point run. Stupid. Shanks has shown potential at times this year but he needs to get the mental aspect down. Gets too frustrated and shows terrible body language and takes his frustration out on stupid fouls.

So is Georges going to be on the team come fall camp?
