Good 1st half.. 44 to 27 YSU. Chill 0 points and we still have a 17 point lead
-
Cohill I meant to say
-
I have to say, I’m pleasantly surprised that we are up this much on the road vs a solid OU team that’s playing well. Saw we were 2.5 favorites before tip.
-
Turnovers & Cohill not playing well was a problem. Team as a whole is balling.
-
Hopefully we survive this run by Oakland. Too many turnovers
-
10 point lead under 8 to go.
-
Hell of a win. DC with only 2 points and still almost win by 20. Just goes to show how deep and talented the team is. Rush is an absolute sharp shooter. This is the best mens basketball team in the last 30+ years. Keep it rollin boys!!
-
2 very solid wins on the road. GB should be a win. Milwaukee is solid this year but it’s not unreasonable to expect 4-0 on this road stretch.
-
Great win in a tough place to win. We are shooting the ball great just need to take better care of the ball and avoid sloppy passes.
-
Already three nice recruits as well! I'm sure coach will hit the portal again as well! I felt this might be the season coach turned this program around! Averaging 80 pts. a game is unheard of for a YSU program!
-
This team is spoiling me. I want to b**** and complain about a vetran team having so many turn overs but they run Oakland out of their gym. Some serious fire power when our best player is in his own head.
Mcbride and Rush are playing at championship level. Green scoring in the post and Nelson is beating people up with defense and rebounding.
Had a great 1st half and a lull early in the 2nd and then the guys just out talented Oakland.
-
When have the men and women's team been really good at the same time? Never I'm assuming... lol.

You have to go back to the 1997-98 school year, the best sports year in YSU history! That fall the football team won the fourth national championship. In the winter, Peters' men advanced to the finals of the Mid-Continent tournament but lost to Valpo. DeGregorio's women won the conference, regular season and tournament, and then beat Memphis in the NCAA tourney.
If the men can just dedicate themselves to playing defense for 40 minutes, they can surpass what Peters did in 1998 and what Rice did twice during the 1980s (before he ran out of Dom Rosselli's recruits.)
-
Excellent win. We cannot take green Bay lightly...could be a showdown this coming Saturday between YSU and Milwaukee.
-
If we win this coming weekend in Wisconsin possibly the next home game will be game of week on Espn2. Just saying what coach said on post game.
-
Coach Roselli struggled his last four seasons. He went 9-15 in the MCC his last three seasons in Division II and 5-11 in the OVC(8-18 overall) his last season. That was our first season in Division I. Mike Rice brought 7-1 Ricky Tunstall, a future NBA 8th Round Draft pick, with him from Duquesne. He helped led YSU to 18-11 overall and 9-5 in OVC and 19-11 and 9-5 in OVC in his two seasons. Rice was 75-67 overall and 35-35 in the OVC.

Youngstown needs to fill Beeghley to the rafters. These two teams deserve the support!

Just finished watching the replay. Who would have ever imagined YSU would turn the ball over 21 times, Cohill only scores 2 and they beat Oakland on the road by 15!? I knew Oakland would come out fired up the 2nd half & I was pretty nervous when Oakland got it down to 6. YSU looked deflated. Great timeout by Coach as that stopped the bleeding and YSU got back in control. YSU takes care of the ball a little better and they win by probably 25-30.
Rush and McBride are just playing lights out. Hard to believe McBride didn't even want to start for much of the early season now he's a big reason why they are playing like they are. He was really struggling shooting the 3 and was like 20% or so. He's now 10-17 in the last 3 games and has upped his average to nearly 39%.
Nelson and Green are playing so confident. They are around a double-double every night. Green seems like he keeps getting better and better and played all 40 mins- usually don't see that.
Tough 2 games for Cohill. I said he didn't look himself at Detroit and that carried over to Saturday. I feel like the game against Green Bay will be a good one to get him out of his funk.
-
I wonder if Cohill’s issues are the result of the changes on offense to handle the double teamed on him.
As a result, he was playing out of synchronization while Rush and McBride are taking over the scoring. He became the one who would set up the scoring for others. I am not sure he used to play this role in early season
I also noticed that he didn’t drive to the basket as much.
This is team basketball at its best.

Green Bay is last and getting blown out most games. We cannot take them lightly. I repeat we cannot take them lightly. Seems like they are double teaming Cohill and it is backfiring on the opposing team. All it takes is too look ahead to Milwaukee. We cannot get beat by a very lesser team. With us tied for 1st with Milwaukee and Nku it is imperative that we win this weekend to take sole possession of 1st. Milwaukee lost to Wright State at home last night in ot. Look out for Wright St. We have them along with NKU. so lots of wins possible if we play the way we did last 2 games. Seems like Ysu plays better on the road than at home. What happened to Lovelace this weekend? He didn't get much playing time.

Lovelace is a tremendous player for a freshman. It says a lot about this team that he did not have the significant minutes this weekend that he previously had. We have great players that collectively are really starting to shine as a team!
-
The minutes from the bench have been fewer as of late. Covington got the most at Oakland and the others were around 3 minutes. Big road games seems to mean big minutes for the starters.
Still would like to see Lovelace's minutes up a little more. He never hurts us when he's playing and bring some intangibles like defense,blocks and is a great finisher. Will Dunn played a nice game off the bench at Detroit.
Wondering how Chris Shelton would do playing meaningful minutes. I would think he could add some shooting against a zone but Cohill,Rush,and now McBride are providing that.
-
I personally think Lovelace and Shelton should get more minutes off bench. Lovelace may transfer if not getting minutes with this transfer portal so much a big deal now. Just saying
-
I hope Lovelace gets more playing time too. He played with lots of energy. Hopefully, he will stay put since all the starters are gone after this season.
Of course, coach might bring in 5 new starters thru the portal next year. Lol
-
3 verbals from HS ranks next year. one is 7-3 Gabriel Dynes from Kentucky. seems like a project at best. the other two are around 6-4.
-
Initially they were going to redshirt Lovelace so I'm thinking he wasn't expecting much PT this year anyways. Obviously anything can happen these days, but I'd be surprised if he'd transfer next season when I'm sure he'd be basically guaranteed to start.
Shelton can obviously get hot from 3, but he doesn't seem to have a lot of speed and I don't think is a great defender. He has good size, but doesn't seem like he wants to do much other than shoot 3's when he has played the last 2 seasons. He was one I thought may transfer this season knowing his PT would decrease. Coach seems to always give him praise.
Still haven't heard any update on Shemar's status.

I watched a full game of Gabriel Dynes and hopefully he takes a red shirt year to get stronger. His skill were not bad but he needs both weight an strength. Blocks a lot of shot or alterd them. Showed good hands and touch around the hoop.
