I liked what I saw from Kachi tonight.

28 minutes of quality ball, only 1 TO

Curious, when was last time a sophomore scored 36 in a X game (playing for X)? Sure there may be some. Steve Thomas?

I attribute this great comeback (some announcer said our largest in a long time) to BJ and his friends in the "suite."
Could here the "Let's go X" chants at the end. Nicely done.

BJ is a great American.

Had to follow the game on my phone because of another commitment this evening. Stopped following the play by play at halftime because I was disgusted. Checked again a little later and they were down 10. Put the phone away and next time I checked they were winning by 4! What the H happened? Got to listen to most of the post game on my way home. Can’t wait to watch the replay.

Crawford was close with 32 vs. KSU. He had 718 points as sophomore.

Dozens of basketball fans wait in anticipation to see if Xavier can manage not to lose to Georgetown(!).

Well, this didn’t age well. ;)

The boys were fired up. Excited, and looked to be really enjoying that comeback. I get it, season didn’t go how we wanted. But they put a shit ton of work into it, glad they can have some fun and memorable moments.

Couldn’t watch.

Saw 10 assists on 30 made buckets. Tons of free throw and Claude goes for 36.

Was this just all one-on-one taking it to the rim all game? Seemed to have worked, but not the style we’ve seen or expect.

Larkin did it in 86 against loyola in the MCC tournament. Scored 45 in an epic game.

The Larkins are on a completely different level.
