i sat at the basketball game last week with Sam Young (football guru, former grad bartender). He said he eats lunch there almost daily and that he had heard its to be torn down in 2 years. He didn't say anything about what the future might be after the teardown/rebuild.

The whole Russell corridor is going to look much different. Sounds like more student housing on that side of Russell, down the way

Here is a link showing the development

slipping into 6th wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. start with (likely) UCSB and then have to beat Fullerton to get to Irvine. I don't see anyone beating Irvine. They defend really well, and have multiple scoring options both inside and out.

his was an odd situation; he never showed up this season on the roster so it wasnt like he was going through a traditional red-shirt. looking through his twitter (not something i normally do), it looked like he was tight with many members of the team, including staff. sounds like a good kid, and he showed signs of being a quality player -> hope it all works well for him. he's having a good exit, so i think Les and company will help him find a good spot to continue his career.

Big w. If we lose that one, we had no chance for a top 4 finish (not that seeds matter too much as long as you’re not 8). Also after being swept last year v Fullerton, we really needed a win to get some confidence vs them. I didn’t watch but it looked like our defense rose up. Outscored them 20-2 off turnovers! Good night of FT shooting, but still struggling from the ARC.

What a log jam from 3 to 7 in the standings. Hawai’i will be tough but I like our chances at home, and should beat UCR. Finish 9-7? That would be solid

Bob Williams pointed out that their guards pressured our guards ALOT and we didn’t handle it well. Mooney and Silar never got good looks. Gonzalez was okay, and Squire penetrated well, but that was it. Bigs had looks, but didn’t finish.

Irvine has so many options. By far the class of the league

That being said, fun night at the pavilion- at least the first half

What’s our FT %? Has to be under 50%. Had a stretch in first half of 5 straight missed when we could have got close to tying

Irvine is the class of the league. Too many scoring options and they play tough D

Shorts warmed up and looks ready to go

6:30 and no students at the tailgate area.

we currently sit alone in 5th at 6-6, CSUN is just below us at 6-7. ahead is Hawaii (7-6) and UCSB (8-5). looking at the Gaucho's schedule, we have to go at least 3-1 to catch them (and hope LBSU and/or CSUN helps us). this is a big one if we want to finish 4 or 5 (no real difference in the tournament).

Going with the all-white look tonight

this as a heads-up, if you check her instagram photos, you probably DON'T want to be sitting next to your wife!

TJ looked like he was walking without the limp.

Saw this posted :

‘UC Davis Athletics is proud to have UC Davis alum and Sacramento Kings Emcee, Katerina Kountouris host our ESPNU game this Thursday! Welcome back Kat’

She was great for football. Looking forward to the game!

they also announced a 'student tailgate' at the pavillion (inside?). cheap pizza, music. all around good time.

by the way, Les is on with Grant Napier at 5:30.

i have mine; section 109 behind the Irvine bench. thursday's forecast is cloudy but no rain. hope that's the case!

I guess a 25-point win could be considered payback? Women are rolling
