Home court advantage is perhaps the biggest cliché in a sportswriter’s arsenal. The Marshall University Men’s basketball team is living up to that cliché.
“You could hear the chant ‘bring on the herd, bring on the herd’ and we would all come running out,” Marshall University head coach Dan D’Antoni said at his initial press conference April 25, 2014 discussing when he played for Marshall. “That was the greatest feeling in the world.”
While that is old news, the message still stands today. D’Antoni wants to have a team capable of bring excitement and winning to Huntington but with a stress of doing things the right way on and off the court.
