So… when do we learn who we play in the next 4 games?

The so-called Bonus Play games will be determined after February 16th. Until then, we’re on the road:

2-7 @ Middle Tennessee

2-9 @ UAB

2-16 @ ODU

No surprise to see teammates Jhivvan Jackson (46 pts vs WKU) and Keaton Wallace (45 pts vs Marshall) sharing this week’s honors.

And might as well name Charles Bassey conference freshman of the year!

Jhivvan Jackson, SO 6-0 G, UTSA - Co-POTW

Keaton Wallace, SO 6-3 G, UTSA - Co-POTW

Charles Bassey, FR 6-11 C, WKU - FOTW

In response to a question posted earlier today in the shout box, some of the Bonus Play games will be televised per this C-USA release from October.

Saw this in a thread on the UAB board re: Blazers last second 79-78 loss to Middle Tennessee on 2/2.

This. "I joked that every 49er box score can be summarized as ‘Jon Davis scores a bunch, Charlotte loses by a couple of possessions.’
This has been the case all season. "

Repeat winners this week (2-11-19):

Keaton Wallace, SO 6-3 G, UTSA - POTW

Charles Bassey, FR 6-11 C, WKU - FOTW

Found this on the ODU Lion’s Den board. Poster (BigBlueMonarch) doesn’t link his source, so can’t vouch for its accuracy:

Missed both games last week.
