Might be the last time we see Coach Davis. Must win game.

Someone needs to do better. The surplus of last year's shirt design as a giveaway? I've received bobbles, flags, posters, mugs, cups, etc at previous year games.

Just win, baby!

Are you surprised? Stack good days is such a lame slogan too. Work Hard Play Hard is looking at stack good days with disgust

We are also getting the Milwaukee cream city t-shirt from early this year. I brought up during one of the day games to Amanda Braun, we do have alot children at these games. Pounce needs to go to all these children and hand them a t-shirt, so they are not wearing the wrong team at these games! I'm pretty sure now, the school does have a surplus of t-shirts where Pounce could have done this.

Athletic department gave up years ago. Lucky to get 1 new giveaway a year at this point and it’s the same t shirts of 4 years ago being throw into the stands during breaks.

I know there isn’t a “must win” game until closer to March, but it really feels like we need to win this one for momentum sake.

I’d rather have a team that needs to improve the defense at this point in the season vs the offense. This would be a good game to start playing defense

Panthers need to punch Detroit in the mouth early.

In response to the giveaway, I don’t understand the big deal. They have extra t shirts from last year, and instead of holding on to them, they’re giving them away at the game. They normally have one t shirt giveaway this year, but this year they’re doing two. If you don’t want one, don’t take one (or take one and give to to someone who might want it). I don’t get why people are upset about it.

For the game, I’m quite nervous. Milwaukee hasn’t played well lately, and Mercy isn’t that far off from taking NKU (a team that throttled us) to the buzzer. Granted, the Panthers played reasonably well for 30-35 minutes of each of the last two games, but those 5-10 minutes each game were absolutely horrible. If the team comes to play tonight, they should win handily. If they don’t, well we remember what happened lay year against Green Bay and in 2014 against a winless UIC team.

Detroit is 0-20 but the way they are being talked about makes it seems like they are a .500 team who will come out and play well.

We can debate all we want whether Detroit Mercy is worthy of being taken seriously as an opponent tonight. However, it is absolutely necessary for the coaches and players to take them seriously. If it doesn't, they're in trouble. If it does, they should be able to get more experience for guys like Murchison and Davis, and work on some things.

They are definitely worthy of being taken serious. They are a completely different team with Stone chucking 25 shots a game.
