Niners Look to Keep Owls Winless in Halton
Three straight conferences losses have deflated the momentum created by the Niners’ hot start to conference play. Looking to reverse that backwards momentum, Charlotte (10-8, 2-3) welcomes Temple (13-5, 2-2) to Halton Arena tonight for the 12th all-time meeting between the schools (Temple leads 6-5). Temple, as most are #aware, is a quality program. They [...]

Niners survive scare from Kennesaw State
Well that was a little unexpected. Or maybe it wasn’t? Whatever your feelings were ahead of Wednesday’s non-conference contest against Kennesaw State, the outcome left much to be desired. While the shooting was there for the Niners, who improved to 10-7 on the season (2-2 in league play), sharp outside shooting by the visiting Owls [...]

Kennesaw State flaps their nocturnal wings into town to face Niners
With a two-game losing streak, the Charlotte 49ers (9-7, 2-2) look to get back to winning with a Wednesday evening tilt against the Kennesaw State Owls (3-15, 0-7). Normally we refuse to include victories against non-DI teams; however, when your level of futility is approaching Wisselian proportions… well we just feel bad. KSU is one [...]

Turnovers Secure Charlotte’s Demise to Saint Louis
A fast start to Atlantic 10 play came to a grinding to a halt when Charlotte (9-7, 2-2 A10) dropped its second straight to Saint Louis (13-4, 2-2 A10). The Niners jumped out to a 10-2 lead three and a half minutes into the game. Charlotte was hitting its shots and keeping the Billikens from [...]

GAMEDAY: Niners set to take on Bilikens
Normally we open with some sort of snark about eviscerating our opposition; however, the GTG staff apparently has a case of the #badfans and some are predicting defeat. As usual, McFly and 2k are being Negative Nancys. Pish tosh, says NLP, the Niners are going to empty the Saint Louis chances for victory like liposuction [...]

Xavier Preview – GTG talks with Dana and Victory
Posted on 28 January 2012
Since joining the Atlantic 10, the Niners have managed to beat Xavier twice. Both of those victories occurred in Halton and took place during losing seasons. Needless to say, it’s been strange. Beating Xavier seems to be an indication that we suck, and since we have done just that the past two games there’s a [...] Continue Reading

Atlantic 10 Spotlight: Conference Week 1
Posted on 09 January 2012
The Atlantic 10 season is finally underway after two months of non-conference competition. If this first week is any indication of the future, we are in store for an absolutely insane and unpredictable conference season. Conference games tipped-off on Wednesday, a day after Fordham shocked a Top 25 Harvard team that Saint Joseph’s couldn’t put away [...] Continue Reading

GAMEDAY! Roast the Hawks!
Posted on 07 January 2012
First place feels good doesn’t it? Go ahead, take a look at the rankings, we’re right up there at the top. Ahead of those smug Musketeers and the Foggy Bottomites. Sure, 2k will be along to shortly to remind us that with only one game finished, we’re hardly at a place to consider ourselves “first”, [...] Continue Reading

GAME DAY! Niners try to outlast the Miami Hurricane’s storm
Posted on 22 December 2011
Once upon a time the Miami Hurricanes graced the Halton Arena floor and were whisked away by a Category 5 offensive explosion. Rodney White led five Niners in double-digit scoring with 20 points as Charlotte blew the John Salmons-led Hurricanes away 95-63. Today’s Niners don’t quite have the offensive firepower of the early Aught’s Charlotte [...] Continue Reading

That Atlantic 10 had it’s first sub-.500 week of the season this past week, going 6-8 and bringing its overall record of 87-55 (which is still quite good). Rhode Island (1-10) continued its recent suck streak with a home loss to Yale. Duquesne (6-5) fell on the road pretty badly to Western Michigan and George Washington [...] Continue Reading
