with that said, give us any team out there to play except Connecticut, that's a fantastic team.
stat of the year/tournament going in. Beach is undefeated vs. the Power 5 this year, lol, and on the road no less.
USC & UCLA are sitting at home, so Beach has Southern California media all to themselves this week, bask in it
aahhh the MOnson story line - we'll get the simplistic version in the igorant not caring to dig much media, the 'what can they be thinking?' version, but so what!
Monson has a chance to plug Long Beach big time this week on the way out and praise Smitherin for lighting this fire, an opportunity to pormote BEACH like he's never had, so will he make the storyline about how great the University has been to him and taken care of him, and plug that the core players should come back? and make it SOLELY about Beach and the players. we'll see if he can make it ALL about Beach.
hope so, if he's as 'classy' as some always say, he'll use this week for LONG BEACH promotion, not himself, and be frank about the last decade and supporting the rationale SMitheran gave.
Smitheran has a great PR opportunity handed to him, a delicate one at that. He's made the right decisions to get Beach back in the NCAAs, kudos for finaly taking the necessary decisive step, and turns out at the right time, what a difference one week can make in decision making. he's one for one in MBB so far!
what a win! first time not going to Henderson, to stay for a dynamic MVB, plus couldn't muster the effort given the way the regular season flustered to the finish line
Go Beach!
