Largest numerical victory in the Calhoun era.   Mayes & Olison combine 1 of 10 but no problem the bench came in and produced.

Luke Chicone had 6 points and more important 8 assists.  Very cerebral running the offense.
Dwayne Cohil had 18 and 11 rebounds. Looks more confident every game.
Owen Long 4-5 from the field with two 3s for 11points.
Chris Shelton was 3 of 6 for 8 points.
Akuchie 12 points on only 7 attempts.

Great team win with many minutes from the bench.    Got to say the transfer portal has been good to YSU  this season.

Double ET:
Chicone and Cohil continued to be impressive. Mayes stayed on the bench after making one of his turnovers ( forcing his way into the middle committing an offensive foul). I think coach was sending him a message.

Can't tell if this team is good or bad but they are a few bad minutes away from being 8-1 on the year.

I guess we will find out after WVU game.

I think the transfer portal and freshman recruits have really helped us from last year. DQ and Naz are gone. But to replace DQ we have Luke Chicone and Mayes at the point with Dwayne Cohill driving to the basket. I think this years group compared to DQ is better at driving to the basket and shooting from the outside and mid range also.  Naz was great inside but with Akuchie now inside he may be a little less of a presence inside, but a better shooter, especially at the line. And Akuchie is not a good 3 point shooter and by him being inside he isn't taking all those 3's. And he is more athletic inside.  And Tevin Olison outside in his spot we have a good outside shooter who will drive to the basket much more than Akuchie in past years.  The real significant additions are Olison and Cohill as replacements for DQ and Naz.  Others are a plus also.  We will see as the season goes along how we compare to the top of the league. I thnk we are better offensively and defensively.  Too bad we lost Covington who would have been great to add to this group.
