its wednesday; thursday is the coach's road trip to the city.

we need to move up to FBS in equestrian!!!!

They have blocked off larue for brewfest and for some food trucks. I expect they will use that as much as possible

I meant LaRue as the street to be used for tailgating; maybe that and that Lot 48 would keep things central. Montana was spread out over a wide area, but they made it work. We can ask next week at the Signing Party but i'm pretty sure the answer will still be 'That's a good question!'. I know they are working on it, and its a priority, but lots of moving parts.

i suspect the Team Aggie tent will either stay in the general area (in a portion that effects the practice field minimally) or take over a portion of lot 56. I think they would like to have the tailgate and Team Aggie on Hutchinson Field but there needs to be some wheeling and dealing with ICA to accomplish that.

At Montana, the tailgating was spread along roads that ran near the stadium and on various grass areas nearby. They could use Hutchinson field and Hutchinson Road in a similar manner.

I caught the end of a segment on KNBR this afternoon where Larry Kruger was talking about the Senior Bowl and who would fit into the 49er's plans. Keelan was one of the 4 or 5 he mentioned.

the preseason schedule was a bear. i was glancing through, and i'm only disaapointed with two of the losses -> Sac and UT-Arlington (and just a little since it was its the 2nd of a back-to-back on the road). i was shocked by the margin of the losses to the WCAC teams. the BWC schedule start has been tough. UCI and LB on the road, Hawaii on the road. Still time to right the ship and finish in the upper half, but its going to take a real mental toughness to do it. AJ's outing on Saturday gives some hope, as does Nuefield. Squire and Fuller played a combined 5 minutes, after being key members of the rotation early. Goode played 11 minutes, with no points or rebounds. Silar another 2 point night. getting a solid performance from 4 or 5 guys has not happened all year, either due to injury or bad matchups or something. its hard to pinpoint what the heck is going on.

This group, essentially, went 6-2 down the stretch. But, as someone pointed out to me last week, those 6 wins included 2 3OT, a 2OT, and a 1-point win at home. Really close to 2-6. Michael O’s contribution might have been overlooked in both ends of the court. We miss that grittiness.

40-32 at half, Hawaii finishes with 14-6 over last 5 minutes. John on fire, 5-6 from floor, 13 points. Shorts and Nuefield have the rest of the scoring. rainbows shooting over 50%. Need to stiffen in defense and get more scoring. Mooney and Silar need to step up. Hate these late games.

No Fcs have 63 to spread among 85 (I think that’s the number). FBS have 85 Full to give to 85. We have to be creative with grants to fill the gap ( UC gap is being than our competition)

they have a ton of kids who are either JC transfers or FBS/FCS transfers. that's going be hard to find another school to land at.

‘Girls’ are really good at home. Fun to watch

They really looked good in the second half. Silar, Gonzo, Mooney and Nuefield looked solid.

I took the blame last Saturday for Mexican dinner Saturday night so I was nervous when they served Fajitas in the Team Aggie. My wife gets credit this Saturday. She sent me to hospitality at halftime to get ponpoms for the 3 little kids sitting by us. She and the kids got into it in the second half. Win and pizza! Great night for 5 year olds!

The ribbons were in 5th out to pole line. Nice showing by the community

Great article by Bob. We are in town today and seeing the blue ribbons along 5th (the procession route to Arbuckle?) was sombering. Such a tragedy.

Probably not a ton of students today with MLK holiday. BB alum day which is fun. Heading up now

looking forward to coming up Saturday and watching them break this streak. I feel like this team is 'this close' to contending for the top-half of the conference (not the top spot). I'm really disappointed that we haven't had much of a chance to see Gonzalez play -> i think he'd have been a big offensive contributor. Hope to get up in time to see the 2nd half of the women's game, get my Team Aggie hospitality with basketball alum, then watch us play a solid 40 minutes. Give them something to build on. Lots of season left.

What seems to kill this team is those 'short' stretches where we let the game get out of hand, and we just can't shoot well enough to completely close the gap. 5:00 to go in the 1st half. from there, we had three turnovers, a couple missed shots, a missed FT, and go into the break down 43-31 (thanks to a Shorts layup with 0:02 left). as well as UCSB was shooting (especially from 3) and rebounding, that was a BIG gap to overcome. Made a run in the first 4:00 to get to within 3, and had chances to get closer (they had a couple turnovers) but missed some shots. That's frustrating.

They are out rebounding up 18-9, hence the 16 more shots. Hard to win that way

I just checked in. Shooting well, they are shooting better especially from 3. Looks like UCSB pulled away at the end of the half?
