Boise State wins 73-70 and breaks Oregon's 46-game home win streak with a wild half-court heave at the buzzer by Lexus Williams!

Yay, Lexus!

What an awesome shot by an awesome kid. Great for Lexus and Boise State.

Good for him.  A small measure of revenge from a few years ago, when we could have beaten them :)

You know that the NBA scouts know of him, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten that Summer League time a few years back.  If he keeps this up for the entire season, he will gets looks for the next NBA season.

Great kid.  Looks like a really good fit for him.

Lexus does it again. He sends Boise State to the OT. He's having a massive impact for Boise State this season.

He's going to be a cult hero at Boise State in just 1 season of play.

Happy for Lexus.  He wasn't going to get PT at Valpo since they added better players, so he made a great decision to transfer to a lesser program where he could see some court time.

I would not say Boise State is a lesser program and I miss him. However, I'm happy for how things are going for him. He is a great player and great person.

I saw this on FB.  When I translated the Lokomotiv's post from Russian, I got this:

"It's all about Ryan Seacrest, who recently visited the birthday party of our special Daniel Daniel. Watch this video, it's very moving."

Like so many of our players, he is such a class act.  I am very happy to see that their fan base has taken to him as we did.  He works and plays hard, and seems like such a solid character guy.

I looked and apparently I didn't have any batteries installed. I'll make sure to keep fresh ones in from now on. lol

EddieCabot is a unique poster.  Sometimes you can easily tell that he is being sarcastic, while other times he hides it well.  Every now and then, he seems to make a somewhat serious post.  He is an enigma :)

It seems Lexus Williams, is that how you pronounce it, just couldn't hack it at Valpo. Our replacement guards are just waiting for the right time of year. You don't win championships in Nov-Dec.
