So I have been quiet this year about my Earlham Quakers... I could lie and say I have been busy with work and getting my Freshman Squad ready for Indianapolis North Central (Eric Gordon's alma mater) game tomorrow morning; honestly been busy with that and the holiday and family gatherings. Speaking of Gordon he is GOOD okay a little better then good, but I was able to watch him up close and personal @ the Iowa game and that kids is good. THANK YOU BRONSON Lickliter!
Going to pass on talking about my big ten and Horizon league games I have attended this year and take my direction towards the NCAC. So I've seen Earlham twice this year once at home against Anderson with Billypilgram. Since he decided not to comment on this board I opted not to also. I'm not a big fan of boards and well he usually surfs every Penn State Board known to mankind. I also went down to Franklin College last Saturday for there game against Baldwin-Wallace.
Anderson game- Lost 62-69. I really think they have some individual talent and it is a shame that they do not have those missing players to fill in some of the voids they have. I look at the 11 guys Anderson played and the 7 guys Earlham played and thought no way these guys will be able to play with Anderson. Well needless to say they Gregory with a quiet 17 and .500 from the field, Terrel Berry grabbed an impressive 17 carmoms and God love him I'm not sure if he could throw the ball in the ocean. Nick Welsh played soft as always, but put up solid (love me an oxymoron) numbers 5-8, 12 pts, 5 rebounds and 2 blocks. They were in the game the entire time trailing 61-63 with 52 seconds remaining. They just do not have the numbers right now and they get worn down throughout the game. They pretty much play 4 players over 30 minutes a game, and by no means do I judge that decision. I think I would have them train with the cross country team and try to have 6 guys ready to play since they seem to have a bunch of obstacles in the way and to be truthfully honest with you they only have a handful college basketball players on that roster.
Baldwin-Wallace- Lost 65-82. Walked in the gym and saw Gregory with a taped ankle and a coaching staff w/ trainer watching him workout like it was the NFL Combine. Well needless to say his Ankle injury prevented him from playing and man did that hurt. It was nice to see Justin Carter who was playing in his second game for the Quakers. He ended up 6-10 with 14 points in 35 minutes and they also received a pleasant 14 from freshman Mark Host.
As for tonight or should I say Friday night game I'll hopefully have something for you later. It is hard for me to believe that this was one-sided and not provoked because Nick is a Soft 6'8. I am thinking about going to become an official instead of coaching. Some of these guys are steps below a bad joke. I actually saw Mike Fox, one of the official's that covered the Game tonight and also worked the Earlham/Baldwin-Wallace game I attended. I also saw him on National T.V. thinking he was a chairman or doing something or another... I wish I would of told BillyPilgram, because it has eluded my mind at the current moment in time and buggin me... Anyone that can help? anyone? BUELLER? BUELLER? BUELLER?

it looks like Wabash has the only chance to Knock off the higher seed. I am going to be pulling for the all men's college West of us. I hope Wabash doesn't get screwed in the 1st round at Allegheny like Earlham did in 2003. (As you can see I'm still bitter)
