Good coach.  Just keep the NCAA rule books nearby.

WHY?   The rules mean nothing to the Cole Brothers.

It is a new season now.  Hate I can't make it Thursday night, but I will be watching.  Will be there for sure if the Eagles are playing next Saturday. 

Where will this be on TV or the internet

All early games will be on ESPN+.  Championship game is Saturday on ESPN2.

I didn't know that we had 6 players out because of the flu and one injury against NSU.  Great seeing most back tonight.  I did notice a shorter bench tonight though. The MEAC is going to be interesting.

Justin Wright was injured against UMES.  He did not play against Howard and Norfolk State.  Just did not score in the first half tonight.  But he got back to his old self in second half.  We have a week to get ready for our first game in the MEAC on next Thursday night against UMES.

I love this new show.  I never realized that little people had such big heads.  Dana is a trip.  He face is at the right level for his wife.

SCHOOL                          CONF          CPCT.               OVERALL     PCT.                  STREAK
Norfolk State                    9-1              0.900                  18-5          0.783                  W3

North Carolina Central      7-2              0.778                  14-11        0.560                  W4

Howard                            7-3              0.700                  14-10        0.583                  W6

South Carolina State         6-4              0.600                  14-12        0.538                  W1

Coppin State                     4-6             0.400                    5-20        0.200                   L4

Morgan State                    3-6             0.333                    8-13        0.381                   L1

Maryland Eastern Shore     3-7             0.300                    8-13        0.381                   L3

Delaware State                  0-10           0.000                    2-21        0.087                   L19


The regular season title will be determined by Monday February 28.  If NCCU wins out then we should be regular season champs and #1 seed in tournament because we would have beaten Norfolk State twice.  The problem is we have a make up game in Durham against Morgan State.  MSU has not decided if they are coming to Durham to play.  Final conference standings could be NSU 12-2 and NCCU 11-2.  If the ADs cannot work it out then the commissioner needs to step in and tell Morgan to come to Durham on Saturday March 5.  The tournament does not start until Wednesday March 9.

I hope that our last game with NSU is televised or at least webcast from Norfolk.

I believe it will be streamed but at a cost.  I don't think there are any more tv games this season as NCCU vs. Coppin was the last one. 

Not even ESPN+ ?

According to NSUSPARTANS.COM each home game cost $10 and $15 for a double
 header. More than likely Jonthan Duren will not be making that trip to Norfolk therefore NCCU will not do an audio broadcast. You will have to listen to Ross Gordan of the NSU radio network.

Lawd, would somebody else beat NSU...

All NCCU needs to do is win out our last 5 regular season games.  That would give us 2 wins over NSU and regular title.

Justin Wright is the Truth!!!  He is taking over the scoring slack for Randy Miller, Jr.  Randy has disappeared for the last few games.    Justin is definitely 1st team ALL - MEAC.

Several years ago George Ravelling coached at Iowa and Washington.  He always wore warm up suits.  It made sense.

We need a point guard badly.  Can Poobie come back?       I heard we lost 2 players to academics after the first semester. Justin Wright is going to be great but he is not a point guard.  Plus Dontavious King needs to stay out of foul trouble.  He is a great rebounder but he will foul out of a game quickly.

Last weekend at Coppin Howard blew a 26 point lead to Coppin and lost the game.  They have some issues.  Monday night will tell us if LeVelle got our PG situation corrected.

« on: January 29, 2022, 07:03:19 PM »

I would love to see some new outside blood get this job.  Jamal Mayo has to much baggage.  Most folks don't like him, except for the chair of the BOT.  Skip Perkins has been at NCCU before.  He left to go to UAPB to become their AD and then onto Del. State or Howard.  Kyle Serba has been at NCCU for 30 years.  He could retire at any time.  We would have to hire a new SID.  I say bring back Chris Hooks.

NO MAYO!!!!

Good to know, thanks

I clicked on the link and it worked fine.  We lead from start to finished.
