again, i think you're lost. http://www.d2messageboard.com/

you and the other couple of west lib fans can have your circle jerk there.


Here is the actual link to the board.....

http://www.d2messageboard.com/forumdisplay.php?102-Atlantic

hahaha, go over to the D2 board and talk about how good Newberry is and see what people say.

Big bad Newberry, who also lost to big bad Erskine College.....good thing we didn't play Erskine I guess.



Keep telling yourselves that Newberry is a good D2 school. Keep thinking Marshall would win the MEC in basketball cause we are D1.

That's just like saying we were not better than a SINGLE FBS school during our FCS years.....aka, only a moron would make such a statement and believe it.

i've never once commented on the ability of newberry, or any other school, in this thread, but you keep acting as if i did. so, you might want to consider that, pot.

and i'd remind you that you're on the wrong board again, but after checking out the link you posted i see why you are here. it just proves that no one cares about wlu/d2 hoops. there are 41 posts in this thread about our crappy hoops team in 24 hours, compared to the 84 posts in the wlu thread that's been up since march.
 
Guessing you ran out of pictures to post. Imagine if you were clever enough to make your own instead of having to search for them online.

I'm here because I am a Marshall fan. I'm not here pimping West Lib, I don't have to do that. Their records and achievements speak for themselves. The fact Marshall refuses to play West Lib also speaks for it's self. You guys keep bringing up West Lib. I simply used them and IUP both as a reference to show that Newberry isn't a good D2 school.

Once again, if you want to believe that then go on. It doesn't matter to me. Facts say that Newberry isn't even an average D2 program.

One more time, they lost to Erskine.......Erskine.

Marshall would be fighting for a D2 NCAA tournament spot if they were in the MEC so at least the program is improving.

i guess if we lost to them the good news would that only a few hundred people would know. but anyway, you have fun with those crowds roughly half the size as the mighty ron jirsa drew at marshall, talking to yourself on the d2 message board, and your community college president.

Whatever makes you feel better about losing to a crappy D2 team.

"Have" the size? I'm going to use context clues and assume you meant "half."


BTW, West Lib averages around 1,500 a game. Good for a D2 school. Crappy for a D1 school. So what is the excuse for the CUSA schools that don't average that?

1,500 would be good for a d2 school, but unfortunately west liberty is lucky to even get 1,000.

2014-15 average attendance: 806
2013-14 average attendance: 834
2012-13 average attendance: 845
2011-12 average attendance: 755
2010-11 average attendance: 969

marshall could scrimmage each other 30 times and draw more than that.
 
I also believe Marshall would have won with all of our players on the floor. Yes, there is a BIG dropoff from your top 3 guys on the team, to the 12th-15th best guys on a team.

Plus, not many people in D2 have a Kelly, so he would have been an insane athletic mismatch for Newberry.
So riddle me this....if you scheduled Newberry and make a comment like DD did by saying they play a style you'll face some this year, why would you not want your starters in there? Why would you not want them getting the experience of facing a style of play you'll see this year?
 
Kelly had a boil lanced and was unavailable. Elmore not eliibl still second semester but looking strong in practice. Browning suspended for two games by Doc for unspecified reason.
 
So happy olde's generation is dwindling...and flyhawk is isolated in his little realm of d2 basketball, which is about the effectiveness equivalent of a Polish military vehicle so we need not read this idiocy any longer.
Hell, I remember when the Baltimore Orioles scrimmaged a community college...AND LOST. By idiot olde's logic, Baltimore wouldn't win a single game and the organization made a terrible hire.
Hawk's logic is if Baltimore had played Northern VA community college, the Orioles would have been murdered.

Forgetting that Baltimore split half their team up to play alongside the CC team.

Olde, calm down before you shoot in your pants...the team will be fine. The bashing of Hamrick as though it is somehow his fault is laughable as well.
Nobody seems to give a flying (pun intended) fuc.k about D2. Sorry NacyHawk, we are D1 and will always have that distinction over West-nobodygivesashitaboutthem-Liberty. The mere fact you tout D2 on a D1 board is like you bringing a Desert Eagle to a gun fight.

Except yours says 'Replica' along the side of it and ours says ".50" along side of ours.

Oh...and the Orioles won the AL East.

HerdSUCK, check your mirror when you want to say calm down. You are apparently too ignorant or too young to remember when MU had a successful, ongoing basketball program. Hell, we were lower than D2, numbnuts, that is, NAIA, when we won our only national championship. As for Hammy, well you go right on kissing a picture of his posterior every night when you go to bed, but facts are facts: to date, his abysmal record of basketball hires throughout his athletic director career has not changed at MU. Deal with it!!
 
Calm down before you break a hip.
I'm sure Marshall was good back in the day...I am too young to remember...hell, a ton of us were.
Congrats that you were around to see it, check out stage left because all you have been doing on this thread is living in the past. Hamrick has done more for MU than you or anyone on this board ever has. Oh? You have gone to Marshall events for how long? Nobody gives a sh.it about your supposed devotion, cause in the end all youndonis bash the program...as though your standards of NAIA are so high...oh wait, NAIA sucks. We are already past that.

Seen our bb record for last 30 years or so, SUCK, well it SUCKS too. Apparently, that is the level you and other inbred mental dumb ASS#S are perfectly satisfied to accept- -- -making Hamrick's job a lot easier, I suppose.

I'm not sure why you are trying to argue attendance and fan base with a D2 school in the first place. Oh I know, because we just lost to a crappy D2 school and you have nothing else to say.

Kansas averages more fans than we do in football, but Marshall is definitely the better football team and program.

Anyways, I don't care what those numbers say. I actually go to the games. Original seating there was 1200. They now have extra seats on both ends (although each set only holds a few hundred,) plus the area up top for the bigger donors. The place is standing room only more times than not.

Once again, the MEC gets better crowds than some teams in CUSA.

Awww thats cute.
First, I'm not from WV.
Second, so you think you have it all figured out and can do better than Hamrick? Come on down, step up, and tell us...how would you do things?
One of the few highlights of MU basketball...is the very guy you are insulting...

Talk about an inbred mental dumbass...

Reactions: CT Mountaineer
Down by 13 at the half to Newberry?? Apparently DD's run and gun style doesn't have any room for PLAYING DEFENSE!! Oh, well, part of Hammy's "do it on the cheap" philosophy. Go out and bring in a bunch of foreign "projects" and some NAIA and D2 caliber in state players (Mountain East Conference type players).

Oh well, maybe I'm wrong. Perhaps Dshoe can tell us that Newberry is scheduled to be the very Best college basketball team in the entire state of South Carolina this season. If not, and we lose this game in embarrassing fashion plus the first two regular season games at Tennessee and Morehead State, then the Herd can expect a crowd of around 3500 to 4000, the usual die hard kool aid drinkers, for the home opener!
Honestly, I never heard of Newberry and I thought I had heard of most schools.

I agree with both of these statements. I don't think Marshall can afford better than Mike Hamrick, and the other part too. Hamrick is actually doing a pretty good job for you guys.

Hell, Herdsuck, see your first response- - -the guy I'm suppose to be "insulting" is of the age that you apparently hope are soon all gone! What a inconsistent dipstick, Suck! If it wasn't for all the old people that you don't want around anymore who were the ones that sustained the football program before and after the crash through 20 years of mediocrity and losing, there wouldn't be any team today. And then the 30 to 40 year old know it all dumbasses like yourself, well, what would you do? Play with yourself, I suppose. The fact that you are not from WV is a definite plus for the state, and the fact that such an anti-MU jerk such as CT Mountaineer likes your comments is all anyone needs to know!
 
Radford beat Georgetown in 2OT; Alabama State beat Virginia Tech and Western Illinois beat Wisconsin. It's early. Relax...it's a long season. Too many on this board succumb to both unrealistic expectations and snap judgements.
Radford and school like them are D1 schools and very competitive at that. Bad comparisons.
 
You're most likely someone that never even played sports in school so I completely understand your ignorance when it comes to sports.

There it is... the inevitable "well... you probably never even played sports in school!" line. Always comes out once in every message board argument.

Listen man, I did play sports in high school... and college... and I now coach and i'm now getting my masters degree in Coaching and Athletic Administration. And let me tell you this: it doesn't matter! It was an exhibition game, is it concerning? sure. Does it mean we are doomed to be terrible? absolutely not. It's asinine for you to say we would lose to West Lib or any other D2 school by a large margin, based solely off of this loss. At the end off the day this is what makes sports great, any team can beat any other team on any given night. The best team does not always win. And the fact that you believe that losing to a team means that team is automatically better, is incredibly juvenile and simple minded.
 
esp when the losing team was missing 3 imp players. I figure if we can handle UTEP and WKU at home we would give WL all they could handle.
