Post-shock Discussion – Lutz, the future, and NLP as John Mayer

After Lutz was released on Monday form his position as Head Coach of our beloved Charlotte 49ers, the contributors of GreenTintedGlasses.net was too shocked to share our thoughts. In all honesty, we knew Judy and Phil weren’t happy about the way the season ended, but 19 wins is an improvement over 11, and it [...]

Weekly Discussion #1 - Saint Joseph's, Next Year, and Golddusters

So we’re trying this new thing. Adding a new dimension to our blog.

Pictures of hot chicks.

Not really, we’re just adding a weekly conversation about the state of Niner basketball between J Felt (me) and NLP. We’re both completely untalented and unfunny by ourselves, but together we form a mildly humorous duo capable [...]

Niners set to take on Hawks, hope to return to winning ways.

February is the make of break month for most teams with aspirations for at-large bids to the NCAA tournament.  Unfortunately for the Niners (18-8, 8-4), it’s been the latter case as they have dropped 3 straight A10 contests to drop to 2-3 for the month.  Wednesday night the  Niners hope to set their course [...]

Game #must win vs. Xavier, Homecoming edition.

Can DiJuan rally the troops and turn the season around?

It’s time for our annual out-of-season Homecoming contest as the Niners set to host the Xavier Musketeers.  It’s been a rough two game stretch for the Niners as they’ve dropped games in the most painful of fashions, losing on the road to Dayton [...]

Well it's about time! Niners return to the court and face Dukes.

Ron Everhart is looking for his spit can.

It’s been a long week off for Niner fans following the dismantling the team experienced against the Dayton Flyers last Wednesday at UD Arena.  Fortunately the basketball gods (or the A10 office) have delivered salvation in the form of a hump day matchup against the [...]

Niners assume the position, ask if they can have another.

The scene with 5 minutes left in the game.

Waking up this morning and reading about last night’s game was like stabbing yourself in the eye with a fork. Why bother? It’s games like last night’s (and ODU, Duke, Tennessee) where one wonders if we’re truly for real. Once things got tough in [...]

Derrio erupts for 34 points as Niners dispatch Minutemen 72-58.

The Niners were all smiles as Derrio Green lit UMass up with 34 points.

Derrio Green week in the Atlantic 10 came to a close with a 34 point peformance as the Niners defeated UMass at the Mullins Center 72-58.  The win puts the Niners back in a three way tie (6-1) with [...]

Gameday vs UMass – Predictions – Grapeshot the Minutemen!

Bobby's Outfit for today.

Ah, the proverbial “trap” game. Fresh off a big victory against Top 15 Temple (to go into a tie for first place), Charlotte now travels cold Massachusetts to take on the young but dangerous Minutemen.

In years past, I wouldn’t even advise watching this game. I’d tell you that [...]

Game #17: Saint Louis at Charlotte

Raise your hand if you're the stupidest mascot in the nation.

Sunday afternoon the St. Louis (just kidding run49er), I mean Saint Louis Billikens take to the Halton Arena floor to square off against our beloved Charlotte 49ers (11-5).  The Billikens enter the game sporting the same 11-5 record on the Niners but [...]

Charlotte takes to the road to face Musketeers

After a hard-fought win over St. Bonaventure, and in hindsight, a not-so-surprising player defection, the 11-4 Charlotte 49ers head to Cincinnati to face the Xavier (pronounced Eggs-savier) Musketeers.  Xavier enters the game 10-5 (2-0) with a pair of road wins in A-10 play to open their conference slate.  Most recently the Musketeers bested much-improved [...]
