Re: MBB Game 11 - LaSalle - 12/23/14, 4 PM

The most obvious explanation for the loss to LaSalle is that we just didn't shoot very well. Their field goal percentage for the game was approximately 58% while ours was 41%. Their 3pt shooting was approximately 54% and ours was 29%. While it's not that simple, it does explain a lot. Our shooters h...

I was in the Pride Lounge before the La Salle game and can confirm that what HUSID80 writes is true.

Re: Columbia game

I was there with my son. Very impressed with the Hofstra fan turnout. Some Columbia fans were sitting right in front of us and kept looking back at us when we were loud. I'm pretty sure they were thinking about moving to the other side of the gym. They kept pointing over there. I watched Columbia du...

Re: LIU game at Barclays Center

Hey Stu, My son Jordan and I are going to the game. I paid for my tickets when I paid for my season tickets. I haven't got them yet, I guess I should call the ticket office. I would like to join you and your group, but we are way out in Suffolk and it's easier to jump on the LIRR out at the Ronkonko...

Re: MBB Game 06 - @ Jackson State - 11/28/14, 8 PM

We also signed up for the video feed that didn't exist. What can you do. I haven't looked a box score yet but it seemed we were ice cold in the first half. We warmed up considerably in the second half. Tanksley continues to be steady Eddy for us. Real impressed with his play this year. Nice to get a...

Re: MBB Game 05 - USF - 11/25/14, 7 PM on ESPN3

Haven't missed a home game in about 10 years and make several away games every year. Not hating. Feeling frustrated for this team. But the reality is, they threw this one away. Hope Mahalich is our coach for the next 10 years.

Re: MBB Game 05 - USF - 11/25/14, 7 PM on ESPN3

What a horrible loss for this team. This loss is on the team. As already stated, up double digits in the last few minutes and what do we do, we start turning the ball over and missing free throws (Missing free throws is a given with this team). For a period of about 3 minutes it looked like they for...

Re: MBB Game 02 - @ NC State - 11/17/14, 7 PM on ESPN3

The team did not give up. I think they came out very tense and a little intimidated. That resulted in a lot of turn overs early. I don't know what our free throw percentage was, but it had to have been around 50 %. We always make one and then miss one. NC state didn't shoot their free throws well ei...

Re: MBB Game 01 - Jacksonville - 11/14/14, 8 PM

Hofstra has always had great scorers and talent. The problem has always been they never had a real team to support them. Now we have a team. It was just a different feel last night. It wasn't only because we won by 30 some points and that we scored 94 points. That was all good. But we finally have a...

Re: MBB recruits 2015

You're right JoJo. I forgot all about it. It came up real fast. We could very well see a surprise signing. The sites such as Verbal Commits do not have all of the information. I'm not saying this because I know something, because I don't. You just never know though.

Re: MBB recruits 2015

I don't think it was any of us or "we" that said we are taking over college basketball in New York state, I believe it was the NY Post that suggested that. I believe we are reasonable and know that this team has to gel on the court before we can make any claims. I just enjoy reading about ...

I'm really pleased with both commits. Our guards of the future. You're right jojo, that article will stir the pot. I'm not sure the locals and Syracuse will appreciate the article but that is not my concern.
