CINCINNATI -- No rest for weary Xavier.Less than 72 hours after a sloppy 84-81 victory over Lehigh in their regular season home opener, the 11th-ranked Musketeers must hop right back in the saddle.With senior guard Myles Davis suspended and forward Kaiser Gates recovering from knee surgery, XU isnt nearly as deep as its been in recent years. That showed up on Friday when Patriot League favorite Lehigh pushed them until the final buzzer.The Musketeers, who host Buffalo on Monday night at 7 p.m. at Cintas Center, began the season with only eight scholarship players.Its no secret right now, we dont have a ton of depth, said head coach Chris Mack.Xaviers options still are better than many teams in the country.On Friday, Trevon Bluiett scored a career-high 25 points with 11 rebounds and three assists. Edmond Sumner added a personal-best 24 points and Sean OMara tied a career-high with 10 points.But, Mack wasnt pleased with Bluietts defensive effort or Sumners ball handling, given he committed six of the teams 17 turnovers which helped spark Lehighs upset bid.Some of the mistakes we made were inexcusable down the stretch, Mack said. Its inexcusable. We have to correct those. We turn the page quickly and play Buffalo on Monday. Mack said hed wait until after Mondays game to respond when asked if its better to get back on the court barely two days after Fridays performance or if hed prefer to get some practice time in.The Musketeers are in a learning curve early in the season but still talented enough to be picked second in the Big East Conference behind defending national champion Villanova.Buffalo is dealing with its own depth issues heading into Mondays game which is the first meeting between the two teams.The Bulls defeated Niagara 76-66 on Friday night despite playing without top guard C.J. Massinburg whos out indefinitely with mononucleosis.Were a little thin in the backcourt without C.J., head coach Nate Oats told the Buffalo News.Monday marks the second game for senior wing Blake Hamilton who returned after being out six weeks with a broken bone in his left hand. He scored 11 points on Friday.Backup forward David Kadiri is day to day with a knee injury.As for Davis status with Xavier, it was unchanged as of Friday.Earlier this week, Davis, who averaged nearly 11 points and led the team in assists last season, pleaded guilty to one charge of disorderly conduct involving damage to his ex-girlfriends property. Mack said Davis would have to earn his way back on to the team.The Musketeers certainly could use him. At one point in Fridays game, Xavier had two freshman and four first-year players on the court at once.This isnt the same Xavier team which went 28-6 and earned a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament. By March, its likely that talent will mesh, but for now XU is a work in progress. On Friday, Lehighs bench outscored Xaviers 23-7.Its not algebra, said Mack. You look down (the bench), there isnt a lot of options, theres maybe two or three.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. -- Fans will have to wait at least a day to see the Kansas City Chiefs new presumptive backup quarterback.Rain forced the team into the indoor facility on the campus of Missouri Western State University for practice Friday, which took place hours after Nick Foles signed a one-year contract with an option for a second year. The move reunites him with coach Andy Reid, who drafted him out of Arizona in 2012 while with the Philadelphia Eagles.Foles adds experience behind starter Alex Smith and brings a familiarity with Reids system. After the Los Angeles Rams granted his release, Foles said, he contacted Reid and indicated he was the only coach he wanted to play for this season.Reid said after practice that the team remains Smiths, and Foles said he didnt receive any guarantee of being the No. 2 behind the 12-year veteran.I dont need any guarantees, Foles said. He knows that Im coming here to work and just be a part of the team. Im not coming here to try and do anything except be a great teammate to these guys, help Alex in any way and obviously, you always have to be ready to play because were here to play.Foles eschewed other potential offers that could have given him a better chance to compete for a starting job right away.After a sub-par season in 2015 with the Rams, Foles sees Kansas City as a place where he can re-evaluate where he is in his career. The Eagles were 15-9 in his 24 starts spread across three years, while the Rams were 4-7 last season after he went to St. Louis in a quarterback swap that offered him and former No. 1 pick Sam Bradford a change of scenery.Foles ended up seeking another change of scenery after just one year with the Rams, who chose quarterback Jared Goff with the first pick in the NFL draft. Some were not surprised he landed with the Chiefs and Reid.You know why it didnt? I think it goes to show the type of respect that people who play for coach Reid have for him and the kind of faith they have in him, said Chiefs wide receiver Jeremy Maclin, who caught 78 passes and 10 touchdowns from Foles with the Eagles in 2012 and 2014. Any time `Big Red wants you to be a part of what he has going on, thats an honor, so it didnt really surprise me this would be the spot he picked.Foles started six games in 2012 with the Eagles with limited results in what turned out to be Reids final season in Philadelphia.In 2013, Foles flourished after taking over the starting job from Michael Vick and threw 27 touchdowns and two interceptions in 10 starts under Chip Kelly and his innovative pass offense, which included an NFL record-tying seven-touchdown performance against the Raiders.dddddddddddd That season ended with a trip to the Pro Bowl and seemingly cemented Foles as a star.Instead, the Eagles went 6-2 in his eight starts in 2014 despite limited success (13 touchdowns, 10 interceptions) before a season-ending injury ultimately spelled the end of Foles tenure with Philadelphia. He started 11 games last year with the Rams -- his worst season as a pro.I think he got out of me more than I ever thought possible, Foles said of Reid. He pushed me -- every throw, everything I did -- to just be aggressive and really, really helped me to be the player the next year (in 2013) and just continued to grow. It hasnt always been smooth; it hasnt always been like those first two years.At practice, Foles split repetitions with Tyler Bray, who signed with the Chiefs as an undrafted rookie in 2013 and has worked as Smiths backup throughout the start of camp. Bray has never thrown a pass in a regular-season game, and neither have 2014 fifth-round draft pick Aaron Murray and 2016 fifth-round draft pick Kevin Hogan.Reid cited Foles experience as a reason to bring him into an already crowded situation behind Smith. The Chiefs cut defensive tackle Alameda Taamu to make room on the roster for the new quarterback.Nicks familiar, obviously, with the system, Reid said. Hes a good football player. He was good for me as a rookie and Chip that first year there. I think hes a good fit, and you cant have enough of those guys. Its a tough position, and you want to make sure that youre fully loaded there. I think were fully loaded.Foles hit tight end James OShaughnessy on his first pass during a drill at the indoor practice. He received limited opportunities to throw in his first workout with Kansas City and did not participate in the Chiefs first live-tackling segment of training camp.Reid said the Chiefs would continue to work on ways to split up repetitions and didnt have an answer for how long they would hold on to all five guys.Well see. Maybe Ill start my own hamburger stand, the veteran coach joked.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Cheap Jerseys China NFL Jerseys China NFL Jerseys Wholesale Discount Basketball Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Authentic Cheap Baseball Jerseys Free Shipping Cheapest College Jerseys Sale Cheap Football Jerseys China Nike NFL Jerseys Canada Wholesale NHL Jerseys From China MLB Jerseys Outlet Canada Wholesale NBA Jerseys Canada Store Cheap Soccer Jerseys China Cheap Authentic Jerseys Canada ' ' '
