@coachacuff
isn't given Coach of the Year, it is a sham award!!! Predicted 5th in ASUN when All-Con JO was expected to play. Lowest NET in ASUN. Down his best two scorers, Bisons get a back to back 20 wins season.

Great review of the Montgomery brawl! Pretty much my reaction, even though I'm not a "brawl" connoisseur. No one got really hurt and the instigators got taught a lesson & arrested, so okay to enjoy and savor. 😂😂😂 He did forget to mention the epic hat throw however
Eating breakfast earlier at lounge in Raleigh Marriott, wearing my Lipscomb Hoops T-shirt... To the dismissive old dude blathering about his Big Red and asking me “where the hell is Lipscomb anyway” I hope you find out on Wednesday.

Farmers have got to get off the heavy inputs, bankrupting them and the soil. Never thought I would have seen Gabe Brown on CNBC, but people are getting smarter.
1/4 Seeing a lot of sports commenters and writers picking Lipscomb as the Dark Horse in ASUN. And why not -- This is a really young team that just keeps getting better!? Of the deep ten player rotation, 8/10 players are SO or FR. Those players make up 85% of the Bisons scoring.
The NCAA's NET rankings are just out. So how does Nashville's hoops fare?
-144 Lipscomb
-151 Belmont
-219 TSU
-276 Vanderbilt
277 Austin Peay, 289 Middle TN, 310 Tenn Tech

Belmont & Lipscomb play Wednesday at the Curb Center.
This is a good Bison team. This program is beyond moral victories. Hard, hard fought by this team. Couldn't be prouder. I think we're better team score just show it.
So.... I'm chewing through Jason Staples' 2nd book. Then I find out as an adjunct professor, he makes his real money sports writing. 🤯 Pretty impressive. My two Twitter worlds collide...

Exactly, they have zero idea. When UVA and W&M started limiting the number of NoVA students, JMU became the school of choice for Northern Virginia. Lots of money and kids flooding to the school and NoVA has decided to make it into a national university
Happy March Madness! The Bisons are still playing. 🦬🦬🦬 Only the 5th 20 win season in the twenty years of Bison D1 history.

Picking Arizona & Wisconsin to go far - smart politically. Ha!Probably should have had Michigan/ MSU and North Carolina go further for battleground state loyalties

Worst. I am canceling mine. Lounges are over crowded if you don't get put on a waitlist. Hours aren't great either. Food is pretty good, but you might not get to eat it. 😫
If you are going to attend one
@LipscombMBB
game before conference play in the New Year, please make it Sunday!
TSU is the only non-con game left that can torpedo our NET. Why is NET important? In the ASUN, NET is used as a tie breaker... meaning we control our destiny.
Two more 1sts for the Lipscomb Bisons! First, postseason win in D1 era. First, 26 win season in D1 era.
Also - what about the ASUN 2-0 in postseason play!

4/4 The Bisons have the firepower to run the ASUN tournament this year. But regardless of what happens in this tourney... with Liberty & JSU leaving the ASUN plus KSU graduating a lot of seniors, the future for NCAA tournament looks bright for Lipscomb.

Enjoyed watching the win over Navy. Lots of young guns showcasing skills and poise. Future is bright! Also flying under the radar —- a commitment to defensive intensity that is going to win big games down the stretch.
Always the scary games! Hard to get up for, but if they get hot you never know what happens. Hope the crowd at Allen is loud tonight!
@AutumnCMarshall
will hopefully post her decibel level posts tonight. Bisons closing in on 2nd 20 win season!
BIG road win for the Bisons!!!
@ahsanasadullah
led scorers and also had one of his most impactful defensive efforts all season. Team showed toughness in overcoming a one sided & atrociously called game by the referees. 🦬💪🦬

Wife is a teacher. Really good one. This was happening pre-pandemic - quality of new teachers has been going down for a decade. Why would anyone consider teaching as a profession? Low pay for educational level, opening yourself to lawsuits, and now potential criminal charges.
If a post player got 16 boards in a game, I would be impressed. But a point guard?!? Therefore in my role as unofficial Bison Twitter dude, I am awarding .

the "Scooping up boards like a freaking Ghostbuster" award. .

Excited about the Derrin Boyd commitment. 6'4" 205 guard who averaged 16.7pts at Georgetown College.
@elipepper
connection from Caldwell County. Might be reminiscent of Kenny Cooper type player, good penetrator and passer, but better shooter. 40% from 3.

20 WIN season!!!! Couldn't be prouder. This team is playing defense hard and smart. And they have learned to win on road. Although having

at Stetson made it more like a home game. 😁
Ran into a guy in Huntsville AL wearing VCU shirt. As a Lipscomb guy, I asked him where he thought VCU was on the bubble. Blank stare until his wife pointed out his tshirt. 😀Don't wear a college sweat shirt from a hoops school on Selection Sunday if you have no clue!
@VCU_Hoops
Great win by Lipscomb tonight to open ASUN play.
@ahsanasadullah
is back and had 29 pts!
@willpruitt99
had 16 rebounds, wow. Lipscomb's leading scorer JO didn't play (in a boot - back in a week maybe?).
Saturday about done. Check: Monuments, Smithsonian... Sitting outside Willard for drinks listening to jazz. Seriously how blessed am I to have an eight year old who loves jazz!!! 😍

's NET is now 124. Good cushion headed into conference play. NET being a tiebreaker within ASUN for conference tourney. The peak for the year given how unserious some schools in our league took non-con scheduling and across the league performance.
No idea why I kept four of these Bison Camp cups for 20+ years without using them. Well, they are useful again as scratch feeders for our laying hens. Brings new life to the phrase "early birds."
Lets go Bison Nation! No keys to the game on this thread. Belmont and Lipscomb fans are familiar with each other’s teams and style of play. Anyone not familiar with the rivalry of the two closest teams in D (on same boulevard in Nashville) might find this thread interesting.
Awesome father son experience seeing the Bisons play tonight! My poor kid may never play in Madison Square Gardens, but he “light” it up tonight. Might take MSG a week to recover.

My early Christmas wish for

season. 1.
@LippyLunatics
show in force. 2. JO gets a Twitter account and trades his mask in for one of these beauties 3. Someone finds the Wichita State 2019 clip "What's a Lipscomb?"
Incredible job by Bison Athletics raising $470k in a single day. 🤩 This is why you "buy" Lipscomb sports stock! 📈 Living outside the Tennessee bubble, I can attest athletics is the only exposure opportunity 99% of the US population will get to the University.
1/ So how did
@LipscombMBB
do in the transfer portal with Schner, Boyd and A.J. McGinnis? I'm really optimistic about how the new transfers compliment the returning team. Looks like Coach Acuff has built a lot of support around

Check the books, has Lipscomb ever had ladies & men's team both win 20 games in D1 era?
Big win by Bisons over EKU. Win puts the Bisons back in the ASUN top tier in the hunt for home games for the conference tourney. Solid game all around! Great to see Bisons hit best form in mid-Jan.

Huge game upcoming for the Bisons as they continue their Florida roadtrip. Stetson/Lipscomb are both 4-2 in the conference. Winner stays in top 1/3 of conference, loser slides. Bisons likely Pruitt-less. Matchup features ASUN scoring leaders Blackmon vs Boyd.
Great win for

Bisons have proven they can play with anyone in the ASUN. This young team has come a long way. Looking forward to the ASUN tourney!

Cen. Ark defeats Lipscomb shooting 61% from 3. (19 Total) Doesn't feel good, but bright spots with freshman Faulkner and Head's scoring. What I saw, D effort wasn't bad. I still think this is Tournament caliber team. Our 17-18 tourney team started ASUN play 1-4. 🤞🙏🦬💪
