New lesson… don’t tweet after a 3am loss. *we (obviously) Not only have I never scored a basket but didn’t coach a great game on either side of the ball. Thought our players made some big-time offensive plays. Just needed 1 more. Credit to Grambling who deserved It!
Obviously sick to my stomach by the result. I scored well enough to win. Have talented enough offensive players. Need to get way better defensively. It was a great experience, minus the whole defense part. We will work to keep getting better!

Northern Illinois drains a three and the South Carolina students-turned-temporary-Huskies-fans are on their feet in Rock Hill
By far my favorite gimmick I’ve discovered here: taped up tee-shirts that can be flipped to show support for any of four teams

Game time in 7 hours. Tried to nap. Unsuccessful. Watching @NMUMensBBALL has helped. Really excited to see our guys on the floor tonight. Lots of work getting here. Appreciate all the support from everyone and we will go bust our butts best we can! #GoHuskies
