Fun stats from last night
- LCSC is ranked #22 in NAIA - so they aren't a total pushover.
- The Cougars held the Warriors to 19.6% shooting. They also held them to 0 for 7 from behind the arc.
- The Cougs shot 52.6% overall and 8 of 18 from three-point range.
- Eleven Cougars played ten or more minutes. Six of those were freshmen.
- Rochestie's line: 2-2 FG, 5 points, 3 rebounds, 1 steal, 6 assists, 0 turnovers
- Baynes: 10 points and 11 boards in 15 minutes. That's efficiency.
- Klay Thompson only shot 30% from the field, but added four assists.

question Grady
I just wonder if I’m the only one who gets mad at things like this…
http://www.dailyevergreen.com/story/26971
This guy says he remembers 2 years ago when there were only 2,000 people in attendance and he walked into the gonzaga game 10 minutes before it started, getting good seats.
I don’t even think Dick’s first 3 years there were less than 2,000 people on average.
By the way, this guy was a freshmen in 2006.
Anyway, just venting
for the good seats part
it was clearly because he’s one of those assholes who gets friends to save him seats in the second row. that game was packed, and I know because when I got there 45 minutes early my friends and I had to sit up near the top corners. We were part of the group banging the walls to make that metallic sound!
I don't believe in the existence of the St. Louis Rams. They're just an urban legend!

Yeah wait a second
I sat second row for the Gonzaga game four years ago, and if I remember correctly I got there 2 hours beforehand (when the doors opened). Even when the team was bad it was almost a guarantee that you’d get some spark of turnout for the Zags.
Two years ago I believe I was third row, and to accomplish that it was probably a 2-3 hour start time to get in line. Maybe I’ll ask one of my friends if they remember.
One thing’s for sure: there is no way he showed up 10 mins before tipoff and got those seats without having them saved. Unless he sat on the baseline, or went alone and found one of those random open seats that doesn’t get filled (happens occasionally). But no. There’s no chance. There was an Arizona game my first year here (2004) where the lower bowl was just about filled 15 minutes before tipoff.
C’mon Rick. We need clarification.
And don’t worry about the venting – it’s been a strange dynamice with the pre and post bandwagon crowds. I’m handling it pretty well, but if someone starts booing the team during a bad night this year I will murder them, and that is a written threat.
Man I've been a student for a long time
But the whole doctor of pharmacy thing gives me a good reason
seat saving
my thoughts exactly. I hate when people do that crap.
I remember the noise…was that the game that someone ripped the seats out and were using those to bang against the wall?
Didn't someone break a seat and then bang it?
I will admit that I have had a seat saved for me – but it is only, emphasis on only, when I have class.
And actually I’ve never skipped class for basketball. Part of that is creative scheduling that frees up Thursday afternoon (and sometimes the morning too), and part of that is having a seat saved once or twice, for the really big games.
Guilty
Grady, as a founding member of ZZU CRU, you are exempt from my hatred toward seat savers not to mention everyone you go with has been there since the beginning of it too. I really get mad at the people who send one person for their row of 10, which i’ve seen all too often. Or this guy, who probably has never waited in line longer than an hour, claims it was so easy back then to get a seat. I bet this guy didn’t have class that night, he didn’t even know cougar basketball existed until 10 minutes before the game. Maybe his parents have season tickets in the second row…
