We haven't won on the road in more than a month.

Singler

and long 2s.

This team isn't just bad, they are remarkably boring. Slow, no passing, mid range shots, don't take advantage of their speed.

The boring part is what surprises me. I’m glad billy has decided to run the offense through Singler.

Somehow even when Russ is god awful worst player on the court the team is even worse with him out...

That's exciting in the same way The Room is.

I have zero problems cheering for a bad team.

I do have problems cheering for a boring one. Even a good boring one. I was trying to stream it but decided I'd rather watch something else and probably go to bed early while just watching the box score

Also Penn State women's volleyball is dominating on ESPNU.

What would it honestly take for Donovan to get fired?

George and Russ walking in to Presti’s office would be a step in the right direction.
