Title: Murray State Racers 2009-2010 Basketball Thread
Post by: JD on February 21, 2010, 03:51:49 PM
This team impresses me every time I see them on ESPN U.  Unfortunately, they're in the lower part of the mid-majors, so there's no chance of them getting an at-large bid if they falter for some reason in their conference tourney.  Or maybe that's not unfortunate.  I don't worry about that, but they're fun to watch and they play "in-your-face" D.  I like 'em.  Consider this their Desipio SPLOOGE.

Thanks for the scouting report. I wish I knew if you were serious so I could sock this info away for bracket time. I'll give them a look though.

I'm serious.  They're good and fun to watch.  They've got 5 or 6 guys that average 10 pts.  I don't mean 10 pts or over, I mean somewhere between 10.0-10.9 pts.  They've a pretty athletic 6'9 guy and a freshman guard that doesn't start but is going to be very good someday.

Maybe, but I'd prefer it if they made the NCAA tourney and not the NIT.

If it makes you happy then I'm for it as well.

Then I take back what I wrote in the big ten thread.

They're dancin', y'all! 

The OVC Champeen-ship game wasn't the prettiest game I've ever seen, but I'll take it.  Both teams played some tough D and it took Murray longer than it should've to figure out how to bust up Morehead State's zone. 

Whatever team draws Murray in the first round better be ready to battle because Murray gets their hands in the passing lanes as good as any team I've seen.  And I've seen about 37 teams.  So, yeah...pretty good.

Butler sucks.  You see all those white dudes?  Hayward's so overrated, he makes Tim Tebow look like a sinner.

Whatever.  You correctly picked a higher seed to beat a lower seed.  Haywood still sucks.

Grantland (http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-triangle/post/_/id/14625/fake-qa-who-the-hell-is-murray-state-and-can-they-go-undefeated) did a "whatever is they do something" on Murray State.  Surprise!  Not all the facts were, um, correct.  But now they've been corrected.  Anyway, I guess I'll still link to the story and stuff.

Btw, Murray State...still not defeated.  Hopefully, they can stay that way until Bracket Busters.  They get Aska back, so that's good.  I always think his name is Askew and that reminds me of Vincent Askew.  Side note: Vincent Askew (http://youbeenblinded.com/ex-nba-player-vincent-askew-likes-em-young/1481) has seen them long hard times come.
