Official attendance, off the box score: 2,587

This could have been played at the McGuire Center and not turned anyone away.

Why did anyone think this was a good idea when they signed the contract?
In case you can’t tell from TV, this is the U12 timeout attendance

by my math

I saw a team that was annoyed about their loss to Maryland for about 7 minutes tonight

and not at all in the final 5:17

That Ain’t It: Dayton 77, Marquette 71 (OT)
The Golden Eagles didn’t look like a team that learned anything from their loss to Maryland, and so the Flyers prevailed.

You're welcome to have something else you hated about the game, but mine was the lack of defense.

I Was Told There Would Be Stops: Maryland 89, Marquette 82
The Golden Eagles didn’t get stops early or late, and thus fell behind, rallied, and then lost their lead and the game.

Marquette had two extra coaches in the three weeks leading up to the season.

They were in meetings, film sessions, the locker room, closed-door scrimmages.

It was part of a program for international coaches. Here's what they learned:
