Jarvis wanted the UMass job. Don't know if he was considered but he was very unhappy he did not get it and always was ANTI UMASS after Cal got the job. I met Cal the first day he was on campus after he got the job and was on a campus tour in Boyden.

Cross is in street clothes on the floor but appears to be walking without a limp or any bandages. Hopefully he’ll be back soon.

I think this has to be a case of Frank keeping Cross out until he is absolutely 100% good to go. Making sure he's ready for a strong stretch run. They didn't handle his absence well against URI, better against Loyola, let's see if they can get over the hump and get a W without Cross at home today.

Settling for 3’s. Not their strength.

I like DHS when he backs his guy down as he has enough quickness and hops to get that short jump hook. They're double & triple teaming Cohen and he should be able to run that and get shots. And it might open up the outside shots more. Seem to be settling for the threes

Love Curry and his ability to make things happen

What up Lou?

Keon much more aggressive today
DHS rebounding is fantastic today

Curry needs to look to score every time he touches the ball!

To be tied considering another bad shooting half is satisfactory. However. Most of the offense should go through Curry and Cohen as Keon and Diggins need to shoot less ior will lose trying to restore the confidence of two guys who just can’t make a shot right now.

Despite going 2 for 17 from the 3 we’re still a laying tough D and we’re in the game.

I expect us to roll in the second half and come out victorious.

I think Jarvis would have done a great job at UMass as he could both coach and recruit. Obviously Cal was the best choice.

I wouldn’t mind moving Cohen away from the basket more to open up driving lanes for the guards.

I change my mind. Diggins and Keon will win the game for us!

When someone gets hot from deep it just makes our offense sooo much better. Nice to see Rahsool heat up
