Good road win against a hot team- this one is a confidence booster- 23 turnovers is a blight but 58% from the field and outrebounding the opponent are good takeaways. They can play better still. let’s see how they handle GW on the road, where they have always had a tought time at GW’s place. Go Flyers.By amy katz

Didn’t listen to the game but from the stats, looks like they played good offense, 5 in doubles. Hopefully they can keep up the great shooting.By sammy

Don’t get too excited. A road win is always a good win, but this is a game that a good team should be able to win.Out of 18 games this season, the Flyers have played 2, maybe 3, up to their potential. This is a game to build on, and if they can do it again on the road next week against a team they should be able to beat (George Washington), then maybe this team is arriving. But don’t expect them to shoot 58% again to compensate for all their turnovers. Nevertheless, an enjoyable win at Duquesne.By By Ken.,Class of '64

Oh boy Dayton a road win. Back on track for what? Another NIT bid…or a 1st round loss in the NCAA tourney? Come on folks, accept that the Flyers are just a microcosm of the pitiful town that you live in.By Harry the Horse

Dayotn has a 39 RPI. 3-0 against teams in the Top 50 RPI. Dayton has a better RPI than Michigan, UCLA, Kentucky, UNLV and the lowly Wright St. Raiders (129). Get a grip guys and get on the bandwagon before leaves town…
