What's going on Mean Green?

Temple (1/22/25)
Both teams need to be investigated lol. The line was 9.5 in our favor, we win by 9. The last three fouls seemed to be with the game already decided, and we refused to make free throws at the end. -

24/25 MBB Attendance Tracker
With 4,029 in attendance, we pushed our season average above 3K (3,047) after being below that for the last four games. Baby steps, I guess, but I really hoped we would have been beyond taking baby steps by now. Unfortunately, we are still down 19.68% or 747 fans (on average) compared to the first 10 home games last season. The students came out, but it looked like the community showed up a bit more than usual too (at least looking that the one or two shots on ESPN+ that showed the other side of the Pit). We had 1,193 more than the Rice game. Just to make the math simple, if we assume 193 was from the community, then we had 1,000 more students in attendance (is that fair?). With a total population of around 46,000, that's 2.17%. It seems student engagement is probably highest for freshman and then diminishes through the sophomore, junior and senior (and graduate) years, so going against total population is probably the wrong denominator. We should probably be measuring against the population in dorms first and then off-campus student housing. Not sure what those number are, but hopefully someone in the AD's office does and is using that to set goals and objectives. As far as the game, that was fun. Temple is a good program and team that came in with a 4-1 conference record and a recent win over #18 at the time Memphis. Lorient is a beast. I remember him playing for FAU last year and the problems he caused us. I don't know how we got him, but I'm glad we did. The press is our Achilles' heel. We need to figure that out. Our normally reliable free throw shooting was off last night as well. Hopefully it turns out to be a one-game anomaly. We hit some down the stretch, but if we would have hit some of the early ones and the front-end of the one and ones, the game would have been over earlier. GMG!- 1

The Harden Rule as I call it. He used tp take what seemed like 5 trips a game to the FT line on this move alone. -

The officiating crew was the worst type - wildly inconsistent with how they called the game. Started off calling ticky tack stuff down low, then halfway through the 1st half - switched and let almost everything go. The shorter bald ref had 3-4 mind numbingly bad calls. The most egregious the foul on Walker you’re describing. We had basically shut the door before he called that & it resulted in all of us being in the Pit for about an extra half an hour to achieve the same end result.
