Already improvement over Thursday as the ESPN+ telecast starts on time as opposed to not at all.

Watching ESPN+ broadcast.
Great picture compared to past years. Amazing difference a lighter floor without LAYERS of yellow sealers piled on each offseason. And, yes the LED lighting is great.
Do we/Learfield . . . whomever . . . not sell advertising for these games? the timeouts are, well, dead. Nothing but TV pictures of halftime presentations which we have no idea is about.
Not utilizing Karl's name to the fullest on the court with the TV guys table blocking the TV viewers view of that graphic.
Okay, I've filled up the dead time, back to the 2nd half.

Simple geometry should have determined where the signature logo should have been placed on the court in relation to the TV camera angle. That was missed when the court redesign was done.

If Tech had played with the effort it did today throughout conference play, it would have won at least 2-3 more games. That's the difference between a first-round bye and a #10 seed.

FAU 76-72.

Glad to see Isiah C. playing well, had 20 points tonight. Tough breaks during his career with the knee issues. Oh well, if you're into moral victories you should be pleased tonight.

Yep. Simple Planning. We are an engineering school....laTECH. ;-)

If we play like we did in this game, we may surprise some teams in the tournament. That is a big "IF", though.
