10 new guys on GVSU. They lead by 5 at half.

Amazing what the portal can do :rofl:

Looking at the box scores, I think this MSU exhibition is extremely significant. For OSU, this is just an exhibition. Nothing serious to take from it. These are my unbiased opinions.

MSU has 5 capable players. Hoggard, Walker, Akins, Hauser, and Hall. With Akins out, they are forced to play weird guys and weird lineups. From the box score, there were minutes where they had to have Hauser, Hall, and Sissoko out there together. That’s not gonna work.

Oakland blew out this GVSU team

Wasn’t sure where to post this but Martelli is on the radio saying TWill has had some back issues. Hadn’t heard this until now but I always get very nervous when it comes to back problems (see: McGary, Mitch). Anyone else have any information here?

That sentence lololol. It better be true or they’ll be hurting

“I mean, I haven’t really had a two way player since, well, I guess whomever it was that was hurt and so I got to use the injury excuse agai – oh right, it was Langford. Definitely Langford. We really missed his two-way presence for about five years or so.”

I think the Gary Harris comp is right on for how they’ll probably use him though. And he’s not wrong that they need him.

Hey guys I had a question. I was gonna buy Big Ten + for the exhibition Friday, but I won’t be able to watch it until a couple hours after it ends. If I were to buy a Big Ten + subscription, would I be able to watch the game replay??

I definitely know that the next day the game replay is available, but I am not sure how soon after the game it goes live.

I also will be traveling until about halftime and am wondering if I can start from the beginning when I am finally able to log on.

In past years it’s been literally at 1200am the next day. Not sure if that’s still the case.

Don’t worry everyone, I just spent 15 minutes talking to a Big Ten + rep about whether or not the exhibition against Ferris State would be uploaded an hour after it ends, or if it would be uploaded the next day. She said it “should” be uploaded an hour after it ends. As long as the game is NOT on TV on Big Ten Network, then it gets uploaded an hour after to BIG+.

Wow I feel like a real sicko right now, and I love it. I’m so happy that college basketball is back.

Can you talk to this person about the actual quality of BTN+ coverage of hockey and basketball?? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Dude, this person was NOT happy with me by the end of the chat. At one point she implied that it shouldn’t really matter whether the game is uploaded Friday night or Saturday morning. To which I so badly wanted to say “No ma’am you see, it does matter. That’s 12 more hours where I can’t check UMHoops”.

The worst part about watching games “in the bubble” is not being able to come to this site immediately for post-game recaps.

The best part about watching games “in the bubble” is avoiding the rollercoaster takes within the live-game threads.
