It seems that you can never count out Cannady as he keeps the motor running and stays focused. There will be ups and downs playing against competitive opponents as was the case today. After all, Hawaii was tied with Miami with seventeen minutes left to play and they beat Davidson pretty handily and then Davidson handily beats Akron -- they play hard and it is their home. Slim margin of error in all of these games but the key is to stay in the game when you are struggling and then make and sustain your move.
Tigers have obviously taken huge steps forward with the West Coast trip. Started all with the defensive effort against Monmouth and their defense/rebounding has been the staple as it should be. Mitch and coaching staff deserve a lot of credit.
Now, the Ivy League. Although non-conference play certainly had its up/downs, their schedule has toughened them up. Should be a sweet flight back home.
*** Not a fan when Mitch goes to the stall tactics -- Bell gets his 5th foul. Play to win; not to lose.
