Teachers, Don’t be discouraged if you do things differently than others. It’s ok to learn from others but don’t think you’re wrong if you do it differently. Everyone has their own strengths, talents, & passions. Just bring your best self. That's what your students need.

This.

My family loves Ja and what he's done for our small town. But it's getting harder to defend & support him. He IS better than this.

Flip side- I can't imagine the pressure, power, and money he's got at his fingertips. Everything he does is under scrutiny.

Ja we love you enough to tell you you can do better than this

This city, this team, your family and this fanbase needs you bro.

Have fun. Live life. Make memories. Enjoy every moment

But be wise.

Rob Perry: 22 points, 12 rebounds
Jamari Smith: 12 points
DJ Burns: 4 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists
Quincy Anderson: 9 points

We had our ups and we had our downs this year. We had our chance to write the season off but our guys kept battling. Proud of how we finished the season and excited for our future in the Valley!

FINAL: Drake 74, Murray State 62.

The Racers just couldn't sustain what they did in the first half, struggling on both ends in the second half.

Perry finishes with 22 for the Racers.

Murray State's season ends with a 17-15 record, and one win in the MVC Tournament.

[Adam Wells @TheAdamBWells]

HALF: Drake 33, Murray State 31.

Racers should have the lead at the half, but a bad call gives Drake the lead.

Otherwise a great half of basketball from the Racers.

Really hope this doesn't come back to those three free throws.

If your partner or spouse is a teacher they probably answer 2,000+ questions every school day.

So try to avoid asking them questions the minute they get home, especially questions like, “So what’s for dinner?”
