Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
Coach D'antoni seems to be slowly bringing The Herd back to basketball respectability. I do not think they challenge for a C-USA title or a tournament berth, but they should win more they lose.
Gut feelings are your guardian angels
Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
I think they could. They went 12-6 in conference last year and went to the semi finals of the conference tournament. Only player they really lost was James Kelly. Return all 4 other starters and key role players.Omega wrote:Coach D'antoni seems to be slowly bringing The Herd back to basketball respectability.

Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
Marshall won again last night to improve to 3-0 over Western Carolina 98-63. Jon Elmore lead all scorers with 22 points, 6 assists and 4 boards. Austin Loop (South Webster) had 17 points and was 5-9 from 3 pt land.
Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
Another win for the Thundering Herd. They beat Jackson State 71-61 to improve to 4-0. Jon Elmore and Terrance Thompson lead all scorers both scoring 20 pts. Ohio State is next for the Herd on Friday.
Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
D'antoni can coach and win at Marshall. Helps that his brother is back in the NBA in Houston. They sure got a bad rap in LA with the mess with management dealing with Kobe's last years.
Still early in the season but Marshall is off to a good start. If the stay healthy and out of trouble could finish at the top 3 in the conference.

Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
Marshall lost its first game of the season to Ohio State 111-70. Marshall was without starting PF Ryan Taylor, and got a good look on what they need to improve on. Interior defense and toughness towards rebounding the ball. Next up for Marshall is Ohio on 11/30
Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
Nice win for Marshall tonight as they beat the previously unbeaten bobcats of Ohio University 98-88. Jon Elmore scored 28 for the Herd and big man Ryan Taylor (suspended for OSU game came out with 17 points and 11 boards to help them improve to 5-1. Go Herd!
Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
Tough loss for the Herd tonight. Lost to Eastern Kentucky 89-80. Jon Elmore and Ryan Taylor finished with 19 points each leading the Herd. Freshman Kyre Allison (from Portsmouth, Ohio) came off the bench and added 14 points which is a career high.
Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
Another tough loss for Marshall on Tuesday to Chattanooga, Marshall falls to 5-3 on the season. Marshall is back at home on Saturday against Toledo.

Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
An exciting win for Marshall tonight over Toledo. 111-105 in overtime. Marshall improves to 6-3 on the season with this win, Jon Elmore once again lead all scorers with 35 Pts, also had 10 assists and 4 rebounds. That's his second straight double, double. Marshalls next game is Saturday December 17th @ Akron
Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
Saturday night Marshall lost another tough road game to Akron 98-88, Marshall had two starters out.. PF Ryan Taylor and C Terrance Thompson (who missed the last four games) next on the schedule is West Virginia Wesleyan.. nice warmup for #25 Cincinnati on Thursday.
Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
Another win for the Herd last night 81-65. Really helped getting playing time and experience for bench players. Starting forward and center was out and Jon Elmore only played about 5 minutes. Glad to see guys get experience. Next up for the Herd is #24 Cincinnati on Thursday.
Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
Marshall lost a tough road game tonight to #24 Cincinnati 93-91 in overtime. Very good game for the Herd as they went 17/30 from 3 pt range. Marshall had a 12 point lead at the half, Stevie Browning lead all scorers with 28. This game will definitely help build momentum for the last non conference game at Pitt next Wednesday as well as conference play. Marshalls starting center Terrence Thompson missed his 6th straight game due to injury.
Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
How tall is Terrence Thompson?
GO LOGAN..The anti-Christ is among us
Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
noreply, he's only 6'8, but he's long and plays bigger than he is. He's a great rebounder and a decent shot blocker to play around the rim. Marshall lacks size.. our 4 is only 6'5. But he plays bigger than what he is too. Our backup center is 6'9, but he's from Bosnia and isn't really one of those guys who can bang the boards and make something happen in the post.
Re: Marshall University Basketball 2016-2017
Marshall lost another tough one to Pitt on Wednesday. 112-106, CJ Burks lead all scorers with 25 points. Marshall finished ok conference play 7-6 and starts conference play Dec 31st against FIU. This team should make a huge run in Conference USA play.
