    ODU's new coach is Jeff Jones, formerly a coach at American University and at the University of Virginia, where he led a team to the Elite Eight and had his team consistently in the NCAA tournament. Struggled in his last year at American, but took an ODU program that went 5-25 last year and won 16 games this year and finished sixth in CUSA.
    He played with Ralph Sampson at Virginia and I think he played a bit in the NBA. I know his wife well and I have met him, heck of a nice guy.
    Only common opponent seems to be 8-25 Howard. which we thumped at home and they thumped at home (and pretty much everyone thumped at home). . They probably have no signature win as good as the Jacks' win over 24-9 and NIT bound Belmont. At home Jacks might be favored by about 5-7 but on road will be tougher.

    Beat me to it. I'm a regular listener to the Tony Kornheiser show. One of the podcast nation and always a day or two behind. Was catching up last night when they mentioned American University and their run through the Patriot Conference. Mentioned how strong Jeff Jones had made the program and the fact he was a great guy now coaching at ODU. I remember the UVA teams he played on. Anyhow, wake up this morning and find out Jacks are traveling to ODU. I feel a special connection thanks to TK and David Aldridge. I will be cheering for American University by the way.

    How is the weather in DC today??

      Eight inches of snow and snowbound. Jackrabbits will probably be seeing snow in Norfolk which is pretty strange for this time of the year.

        Has there been any viewing options made yet? I have looked at ODU athletic website (Monarch Media) and nothing has been listed except for live stats. Jackrabbit Extra doesn't have a audio link yet either.

          Quick web search reveals:

          ODU's radio coverage, ESPN 94.1 FM, Virginia Beach http://www.espnradio941.com
          MonarchMedia from our good and dear friends at NeuLion: http://www.odusports.com/mediaPortal..._OEM_ID=31100/

          No idea what, if any video will be available as of yet.

          I imagine it will be up on the Jackrabbit Sports Network and Jackrabbit Extra (audio, at least). If not, there will be trouble. (evil, shifty-eyed grin, accompanied by disturbing chuckle)

            Heard today that video will be available via GoJacks.com as ODU has agreed to make their streaming video available to SDSU.

              Does SDSU allow other teams fans to get the video like this? I assume that they have to subscribe to GoJacks.com. It doesn't sound like ODU are charging the SDSU fans if they already have GoJacks.com. I know that ODU has all general admission seating but I couldn't help but notice that all tickets are $10 for that game. Tickets for the game @ Frost are $20. I know that it isn't the exact same thing but still found it interesting.

                GoJacks usually exchanges video feeds with other schools which use the Neulion network , which I believe someone earlier had said that ODU also uses.

                  Per T.V., Bittle is on the trip, but won't play.

                    I have a bad feeling about this . . . (channeling Han Solo . . .)

                      Probably a good idea with him having foot troubles again. Shut him down for the rest of the year and get him back to 100% for next season. This should give Horstman, Jacobson, and Broman more playing time. This will also give them value experience for next season.

                        I agree, it would be crazy to risk Bittle in this type of game. We are in bonus post-season play here. Unless we win the whole tournament, most of us will not even remember how this post season run ends up. It's going to be very tough to win this one without Bittle, but I'm glad they are not running him out there on a bad foot. Throw Horstman and Broman into the fire and see what happens.

                          But, but Jake wants to play this game. Just kidding, I think we should not play him and it would be better to have a 100% Bittle for next year.

                                I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to do much if he aged that much
