@Xavier, Sat., Feb. 4, 5p, FOX

Instead of waiting for the game I can already give you the postgame presser from Coach Anderson:
”Our defense wasn’t good enough”
”We can’t make excuses but the travel situation didn’t help”
”I thought we would be further along”
”Tough to win when you shoot like that”
”Turnovers really hurt us”
”Xavier can really shoot the ball”
Excuse # 2 and # 6 tonight
 
I was getting set to tune into the game on Fox. The game before was between Iowa and Illinois. Near the end of the game they but up the Big Ten Standings but instead of Maryland they had UCONN. They fixed it on another graphic after but said nothing. So for those who are expecting UCONN to bolt, Fox already did.
 
All kidding aside. Probably not a great idea to fly to a game ON GameDay in the dead of winter where weather can be a huge factor. But who knows the circumstances?
Doubt they did that. Usually go day before; charters are on extremely tight schedules. They were delayed going to Florida in December since there was a crew problem, had to fly one here from FL so they were about 6 hours late. I've been on a few with them and on one we had to wait until the crew passed their FAA mandated rest time. Those charters drop teams off all over the country and weather can screw everything up.
 
David Jones didnt travel w/ team for personal reasons. What a mess this team is.
It's amazing how quickly things fell apart in that regard. I was amazed that they stuck together after last year, with zero transfers. That seems like they liked and respected Anderson. And this year it seems the complete opposite; have to wonder how much of a cancer Curbelo is.

They landed two hours before game time
