Re: MBB Game 22 Stony Brook, Feb. 1 (Thu), 7 PM

Disappointing team. We’re mediocre. They seem to only play well for half a game. The main weakness , in my opinion, is the disaster at center…one big out with a shoulder injury, one quits the team and one is huge, but inept. The only competent big…Fritz…can’t seem to stay on the court for a full gam...

Five turnovers by JC. Fritz only playing a little over half a game. Letting Rice, the only Monmouth player who could possibly beat you, actually beat you. That’s on Speedy. Bad day in Jersey.

The sports editor, I heard, is a St John’s grad. Expect a full page next Tuesday covering Pitino’s trip to ShopRite to buy milk, orange juice and cheese snacks.

Newsday non-coverage of the game, but made sure to report on Rick Pitino’s medical condition.

Re: MBB Game 17 @ Campbell, Jan 13 (Sat), 2 PM

There may not be a solution this year…just an underachieving team. Here’s a question: Same players, Mihalich is coach. Same results?

Re: MBB Game 17 @ Campbell, Jan 13 (Sat), 2 PM

This is Speedy’s first real crisis as head coach. The offensive scheme is a failure. A good coach evaluates the situation and makes changes, even radical ones like changing the starting point guard, if that’s the problem. Speedy has often referred to JC as the team’s leader. Is it time to put Robins...

Re: HU MBB Transfers Out

Marshall has turned out to be a really strong addition at Albany. Miscalculation by Speedy, in my opinion.

Wilmoth needs shoulder surgery and will not play this year.

Great coverage by Newsday…a single paragraph buried in the middle of the sports pages…Pretty pathetic. CALL AND COMPLAIN!

Re: Transfer Portal

Who’s the fifth starter? Carlos, Dubar, Thomas, Fritz and….?

Re: Transfer Portal

My guess Fritz will be the starting center, with Dubar, Plotnikov, Carlos and Taylor. Farmer, Sunday, Washington, Wilmoth off the bench

Re: Transfer Portal

Anybody notice that Estada’s game deteriorated toward the end of the season? He was hurt, returned and then was out sick. After returning from being ill, his game was off…Thomas was the better player down the stretch, in my opinion. Remember the Rutgers game? Estrada fouled out as Hofstra won in ove...

Re: Transfer Portal

Fearless forecast: The most important addition to the rotation next year is already at Hofstra….Khalil Farmer. By the end of next season he’ll be starting. Good size, quick, excellent shooter, will play strong defense and is a team player. Speculating that Amar’e Marshall transferred out because he ...

Re: Transfer Portal

Not sure of Wilmoth’s role…not really a center…hardly player for Butler, but was a very good high school player. Was he injured? Didn’t play defense? Maybe a change of scenery brings his game back. From videos of him, looks like he can hit an outside shot and can also slash to the basket for a layup...
