We’re diving into some hot debates and cool strategies this week! Coach Greg Curley shares his take on sportsmanship—should teams always play to the buzzer, or is there a point where respect for your opponent comes first? And what about Penn State? Should their focus be on the Big Ten Championship or locking in a home game? We’ve got opinions, and we’re not holding back.

Coming off a tough loss against Mercy, it’s time for some soul-searching. The game wasn’t our best, but Sho Watson showed serious potential, and we’re looking at the lessons to be learned about preparation, mindset, and teamwork. Resilience is the name of the game, and we’re not backing down.

To shake things up, Tom throws some out-of-the-box strategies against the wall—a silent practice, a 24-hour gym session, and a unique (non-basketball!) motivator to get the team recharged and connected. As we gear up for two big home games against Elizabethtown and Wilkes, the excitement is real.

And of course, we couldn’t resist a little sports banter and bold predictions. Can the team rise to the challenge? Tune in to find out!

In this week’s episode of The Juniata Men's Basketball Show, Tom, Biz, and Coach Curley dive into Thanksgiving week. The trio kicks off by sharing their love (and occasional gripes) about Thanksgiving traditions, from turkey and stuffing to acceptable napping.

On the basketball front, the team reflects on two hard-fought losses: a nail-biting overtime thriller against Lycoming and a defensive grind against Scranton. Coach Curley provides insight into the team’s growing pains, emphasizing the progress made by a young roster learning to compete at the college level. The discussion highlights the team's resilience, defensive strides, and the importance of focusing on process over results.

Looking ahead, the Eagles face a formidable test against the undefeated Gwynedd Mercy Griffins. With key players sidelined and the team adjusting to new roles, the challenge is steep—but the optimism is strong. The crew also fields a listener question about the changing landscape of college athletics, touching on NIL deals and the future of college sports.

Tune in for a mix of candid coaching insights, Thanksgiving banter, and a deep dive into the evolving season for the Juniata Eagles.
