A kid from GF had a triple double when I was a senior I'm pretty sure (2010-2011).  Mike something generic.

If it was the NWC his last name was probably Taylor. Every team had a Michael Taylor if I'm not mistaken...and Whitworth had 2 of em

That's the one!

Linfield's ship is sinking fast...

Just got my academy date to become a correctional officer here in CA.  Not an extremely satisfying job but it pays the bills!

And congrats to him!  That's fantastic!

Also, Linfield football moves on after beating UMHB with a FG as time expires.  Good day to be a cat

Blackhawks.

Playball--you out there?  My youngest is going to WW to play football. Will you root for him against LF?

No.  And I can't believe Linfield is winning at any kind of rate right now.  They have a roster full of 6-0 to 6-3ers on the team and are being led by a 6-3 post player. Are the teams they played really that bad or are we that good so far?

Buc, what is David up to now?

And back to the football stuff, I'll root for them even though they are bastards who are taking advantage of a lopsided fundraising/administration situation.  I can't say I wouldn't do the same.

Congrats on having a Cat in the family!  Albertsons/Safeway, Dutch Bros, and Alfs are all good gift cards to get him.

Can Bishop shoot midrange or is it all at the rim?  Good finisher regardless.

Linfield needs to start recruiting some size.  Some guys between 6'2"-6'5", shooters, good post players, and quick guards that can create space to shoot or pass.  Seems easy enough!

Dude, I gotta go with the Whitworth guys on this one. You do not put your best foot forward in an argument concerning D3 men's basketball when you bring D1 comparisons into it.

The argument is not D1 vs D3, it's those that strive for excellence vs. those that don't.  You're telling me a school like Gonzaga (in the same city!) can compete with the best and the biggest schools in the country yet WW can't compete on a D3 level?!  You've all lost your minds.  The problem with Whitworth is that they follow the same safe system every year, which is only good enough to win the conference, not national level, and they're...oh how did Pinceone put it, "fine with that." (I know this is going to disappoint, but I'm all talked out on this one)

If a team was picked to finish last in the league by the coaches, and then turns around and makes the biggest jump of every team, does he not deserve to get votes for coach of the year blackhawks? Everyone was saying they were going to be the worst team, but became the 4th best team in the league, why not reward a guy for his improved team?

He should have been picked to finish last.  His team won 1 game last year.  But he's been at Willamette for 6 years.  He didn't inherit this team.  He recruited this team.  He made this current hoops program.  He's made his own bed.  Now he wins 8 games and finishes 4th and he's coach of the year? Come'on.


No, he took a really bad team and maximized their talent to win.  Good on him for doing more with less.

Best team's coach and best player should not be a lock for poy and coty.  Give it to who deserves it.  Kip has done a lot with little!  Nothing against Logie but look at what Kip has turned around

Fun fact: Linfield didn't have a player average 10 ppg this year.  First time in program history.

WW gets the title by not slipping up. The key to championships.

Winning the next two games is going to tough. Should be a fun league tournament. The Whits a both playing well right now. Nice to see Willamette back in the top part of the league. LC does not get much love on this board. Congrats to them for a great league season.

Playball, I was just trying to help get some LF fans at the game. All of your LF fans must of been at the Civil War game and tailgating afterwards. There were more Whitworth fans than LF fans at the basketball game that night.


Haha!  Touché!

Buc, rib as you will but at least I can point to something ridiculous that you thought would fly.  Civil war weekend and you wanted to see the game but we were scheduled at home against you guys.  "Well, we can get Gill coliseum if you wanted to reschedule."  Yes, Buc, we would love to reschedule our home game to a neutral site to appease the Rileys.  Makes sense! 

But yes, Linfield blows.  WW are perennial champs.  Congrats, you win.

Nwcsports.com has pacific at third.   I don't think they will hold that spot and believe they are swinging higher than they are at.  PLU was classic at that for the first half of the season in years past just to falter in the second.  Interesting year in the NWC!!

YESSSSS!  We beat Fox.  This tough season now has a redeeming quality. 

Side note:  George Fox calls Linfield, Sinfield.  Aren't they so clever!?  ::)
