Good, disciplined teams have a tendency to pick up fewer fouls than their opponents for a variety of reasons. Whether it’s superior athleticism or speed, as in the ability to alter an offensive approach without making contact with the opponent, or simply smart play around the basket, good teams do this. Harding was a good […]

Obviously not looking ahead to OBU, Harding throttles Delta State
What? A game review the day after the game? Is this 2005 or something? Believe me, I’m as surprised as you are. Once you get your head around the idea that I’m actually doing a somewhat timely review, we have some game action to break down. [TABLE=92] The Bisons basically did what they’ve been doing […]
Last-second shot falls short as Bisons lose to Weevils
To say that there is parity in the GSC West right now is like saying there are some Republicans in the Church of Christ. Everyone knows it and deals with it, some better than others, while a few outcasts (Democrats, Muleriders/Reddies) serve as onlookers. After Thursday’s round of GSC games, the top six teams in […]
Weekly Notes: February 8, 2008
The first week of February is in the books, so now you can get ready for Valentine’s Day next Thursday. Hopefully you take some time on days other than February 14th to make your special someone feel loved, though. I don’t exactly keep a list of things I never thought I would do, but later […]
Evaluating Postseason Chances
The second half of the GSC conference season begins tonight, and the Bisons will travel to UAM for what should be another hard-fought game. Because of the team’s hot start and current first-place standing, HU is ranked #7 in the latest D-II South Region rankings that were released yesterday. The top 8 teams make the […]
Weekend surge pushes Bisons to the front
My mind has mostly been elsewhere in the last day or so, but I was paying attention to the games last week, and hopefully I can throw out a few good thoughts. Harding 69, Southern Arkansas 66 [TABLE=87] The Bisons mitigated the negative effects of Steven Barnett’s slippery handle (8 turnovers) with an impressive rebounding […]
Mathematical Formulas: Don't let one ruin your day
This is not my review of Harding’s weekend wins, although that will be up this evening. Stats will be updated at some point tomorrow and will include tonight’s UAM-Philander Smith non-conference game. If you’re not interested in the statistical side of basketball, this post probably isn’t for you, but I thought I would pass along […]
Weekly Notes: January 31, 2008
I’ve gone a bit light on the blogging lately, but I do have a few things to share. Unfortunately, none of them is a college basketball Top 25 list. I’ve been following some blog activity this week about [HU Prof.] Flavil Yeakley’s presentation on youth in the churches of Christ, which he made on January […]
Weekend in Review: Bisons lose their first GSC game
Arkansas Tech 64, Harding 60 Thursday night’s game was a battle between GSC West unbeatens, and Arkansas Tech edged Harding in Searcy, 64-60. The Wonder Boys have emerged this year as a very good team because of their strong backcourt of Darren Tarver and Terrance Whiters. Add a handful of efficient role players, and it’s […]
Individual Stats (Finally)
With a month and a half left in the season, I finally have individual stats for you to browse. Follow the link for more: 07-08 Individual Stats The tables are fully sortable, but the sort function is a bit quirky. For some reason, it won’t sort percentages properly, so I may remove the percentage signs […]
