Big win for the Trojans on the road! Troy hit 40 of 50 FTs! When was the last time we shot FTs like that, especially shooting 10-12 down the stretch when ULL was trying to scrape their way back in it.
We scored 100 pts, and Vernado had a career night scoring 30.
Great game guys!

Hopefully this coach can make this winning a more consistent part of his resume...

Posted on the Twitter account thirty minutes ago: Troy Basketball @troymenshoops We're just 24 hours out 🕛 A win tomorrow would tie the most conference wins in the Phil Cunningham era with six more games after! #TroyTough

Man, this team has some sure fire talent. Next game is an easy win. 6 left after the next one with tournament remaining. History says we don't string wins together. An NIT bid possible ?

I think to get to the post season we will need to win 19-22 games. We have 8 left, so we go 4-4, we are at 17, would need at least two games in the Sunbelt Tournament, to get to 19. NOW, if we were to go 6-2 AND win two in NOLA, were at 21, should be ENOUGH IMO. HOWEVER, we need to win two, before we can win three! Hope that happens tonight. Ladies struggled on this trip over weekend and got upset in Lafayette, hope it doesn't happen tonight with the men! HAVOC!!

Not quite an easy win... But I'll take it. We NEED to be more consistent. It seems we play up to our competition even though we have one of the most talented rosters in the league.

I have zero confidence in this staff to win any more games...period. Winning a few towards the end of this season won't erase that.

I am sure the staff and players truly appreciate your vote of confidence for the remaining 6 games of the season. Troy currently sits in 7th place in the Conference at .500 with four home games and two away games left to play. I know you've voiced your displeasure multiple times concerning the Coaching staff but until the season is over, we should all get behind the guys with all the support we can provide. No doubt you have your reasons to feel the way you do but maybe we could all agree to rally behind this team (and the coaches) from now through the end of the season, and hopefully through the tournament, before judging the staff and calling for their heads.
Momentum is a funny thing and playing well down the stretch could prove to be very rewarding for this Troy Trojan basketball program. We've literally been in every game we've played this season, and are now actually catching some breaks, so lets hang on for the ride and see how things play out from now through March.
My personal philosophy is that if I wouldn't say something to someone to their face, I certainly wouldn't say it from behind a keyboard....
Proud of the Trojans, they have my full confidence and my full support.
GO TROY!

Thinking I had missed something along the way, I went back and reviewed several threads from this season and your comments in them. I'm guessing your sarcasm button wasn't working when you typed this?

Ladies struggled on this trip over weekend and got upset in Lafayette, hope it doesn't happen tonight with the men! HAVOC!! An NIT bid is absolutely out of the question, even if Troy were to go undefeated from now on and lose in the finals of the Sun Belt Tournament. A bid to the CBI, CIT, or Vegas 16 is possible. There have been teams that were 14-16 that went to those tournaments. But the athletic department is going to have pay between $30,000 and $50,000 just to get in to one of those tournaments if an invite comes along. It's not like the NCAA or NIT tournament where teams actually turn a profit. Troy had to pay a high amount just for the women's team to get to play in the WBI Tournament in 2015.

Yeah...it's obviously a wrap for this season so we should start the process today... Who really cares about basketball? I'm ready for baseball season to start...
