Hip hip hooray!  What a fantastic win.  And look it, when we beat WKU on the road we always get to the tourney!!!

We were picked 6th in CUSA… ridiculous 

I'm sure Coach Mac wanted exactly that.  "No one respects us" is the easiest coaching bit there is.

Forget the NET.  Forget playing for the 11-12 seed.  Who do we play next?  That's what we need to concentrate on.

GO MEAN GREEN!

Charlotte who, because of Covid postponed games, is unbeaten in league play.

The Pit better be packed next game. It's sad seeing these other schools outdraw our fans.

That’s what the team needs to concentrate on. This is a message board. We can concentrate on anything.

If any of the players are reading this, great job on getting those road dubs. Proud of you all!

You guys are brutal.

Winning on the road always feels good, but winning in Diddle feels fantastic and something that I haven’t felt in a while!!

Great win and Bell looks like an All CUSA player.

Why the animosity?  Tonight should be a time of celebration.  Let’s join together not criticize after such a big win.  Peace.

Great win but if only we hadn’t lost to Buffalo amirite?

As Emmitt and I discussed over the phone, I hope we continue to play WKU in the OOC after we change leagues.  They're a great opponent and I'll miss them otherwise.

Absolutely zero animosity. Negative levels of animosity.

Basketball wise/maybe in general I will miss WKU, Marshall, USM, and La Tech. Wish we could snatch up a few of them tk make the league 16 teams.

This!  For me, it isn’t even close, the games, in any sport, I will miss from conference realignment.  Our games against WKU have been on another level over the years.

That falls on the shoulders of the AD. 

BRING BACK THE PIT CREW!!

INTENSELY PROMOTE THE GAMES ALL OVER CAMPUS.

Let’s just hope we can maintain this in basketball. There’s going to be no shortage of interest in Grant. 

If people don't go to games, how can anybody else know how great Grant is?

[Matt from A700]

Why doesn't the AD let one of the school's sh*tty student garage bands play at halftime? Probably free and might bring a couple dozen extra students.

Not only have there been some classic games with them with a lot on the line, but they arguably have the best basketball fans in the conference.  

Our games against them always feel like barometers of whether or not we are really contenders.  Obviously, huge win!

Agree. It’s been a blast with them all the way back to the mid-late 2000s sun belt.

They are promoting the “Pit Crew” but are calling it Mean Green Maniacs. They will have coordinated dances and stuff.

They need to bring back the Pit Crew name. The pictures on the Mean Green Maniacs Twitter page (at least the ones with more than 5 people in them) are all from the Pit Crew era.
