Brad: So, beyond a bizarre and mildly amusing Twitter feud with ETSU fans, there’s a couple of things to take from that game.
1. JP was horrible. X was +16 with him off the court. I have no idea what his deal was, and Q wasn’t a lot better. Despite that, Paul Scruggs didn’t play.
2. You cannot spot a good team 22 points with 14 minutes to play and win. Credit to ETSU for accepting what they were given, but Xavier should have lost this game. Chris Mack pushed every right button down the stretch while the Buccaneers looked increasingly helpless to do much more than watch.
