Let it rip Newsday, the moment you’ve wanted to have a total field day, and this program deserves every bit of it. Please do not spare a single soul.
Maybe with enough public humiliation something will actually change at Hofstra.
…. Naaahhhhh who am I kidding.

Re: CAAT Monday, March 11 - Semifinals
I’m going to hold off on much of my thoughts so I don’t have a repeat of last years tirade - I vowed to be better. I will just say I don’t want to hear not one more time from ANYONE how “great” of a coach Speedy is at this stage in his career. Not just him of course, but he’s the head dog so it’s on...

Re: Turnpike United - Hofstra's NIL Collective
Jojo thank you for posting this - frankly I am shocked people don't know about this - I thought it's been mentioned here before. joeg, I get it, all should be mindful of where their money goes, but to my knowledge this is real and I believe HU's only NIL collective. And when I say Hofstra's I mean t...

Re: CAAT Sunday, March 10 - Quarterfinals
Was looking for a 10 point win and HU answered and then some. Gotta take any win you get in the tournament - can't complain too much, a W is a W in the CAAT - wasn't a pretty first half, but they came out with a purpose in the 2nd and left no doubt. Carlos and Dubar absolutely answered the call and ...

Re: 2023-24 CAA MBB Awards
Congrats to Thomas, and Speedy too, for the POY - and congrats to Dubar and Carlos - but I do think those 2 should be a bit extra motivated - those aren't exactly eye opening honors for them, kinda more of the same really. They need to show up and show out in the CAAT with a chip on the shoulders. W...

Re: Pre-CAAT Discussion
Go get em wags, that's great bud, congrats to you - hope you enjoy the CAAT and bring our guys great luck! Wondering: cuts the nets anyway HU can get it (i.e. say, if UNCW knocks off Charleston for a third time), or do HU fans here want the challenge of beating the best to be the best, and want a th...

Re: 2023-2024 Men's Basketball Nonconference Opponents
Checked it out a bit myself dp86, and yep it does look like this was largely a matter of roster shifting - USF has a TON of transfers this year, and it looks like from the box scores they finally figured out their top 3 guys in Pryor Miguel and Youngblood. They do the bulk of the scoring as the ofte...

Re: MBB Game 31 @Charleston, March 2 (Sat), 2 PM
lolol very fair point joeg1 - and hilarious description. But I'm sorry, there are plenty of short guards that develop their game to navigate that "shortcoming" (here all week folks). Learn to use the high floater, drive under the basket and use it as your defender, develop the quick stop a...

Re: Estrada @ Alabama
Ugly. I watched and despite the points didn't think AE had a great game - he (and others) had some bad plays, missed shots, and turnovers. Bama is reeling a bit, they need to get themselves together going into the SEC tournament. I do think Florida is starting to surge a little though as well... imp...

Re: 2023-2024 Men's Basketball Nonconference Opponents
An incredible run into March. I would be interested to hear more detail around this. Did they have injuries that got healed of late? Change their strategy? Gain talent that was sitting out? I'm sure some could claim it just takes time to gel and this is result of figuring themselves out, but this st...

I was pretty surprised about Caitlin deciding to go to the WNBA - she would make a ton of $ staying. Maybe there's some big deal in the works for her there though... pretty interesting that the Pros are now going to have to compete with kids getting paid to stay in school! They aren't used to having...

Re: Men's basketball recruiting 2023-24
Thought I'd circle back on this near the end of the season for some positivity and prediction regarding our two signees so far. Joshua Decady - Looks like a Uter type that can legitimately step out and hit the 3 with some consistency. Active physical player on both ends, great size, a versatile PF, ...

Re: Women's basketball 2023-24
With all due respect to her, and I'm no women's hoops expert, but in today's sports in 5 years it's go or no go. This isn't the 90's where you get a decade to build a program. 5 years is more than enough. You either are a fit here and have it on track or you're not and don't. All I needed to learn i...

AE had a real good game and did an admirable job guarding one of the best players in the country - really happy for him. Just not quite enough - they needed to make a...

Hi Jojo... a little delayed, but hopefully helpful for you. So this is for football, but 247 did a no-name study on this recently for several top ranked players that has made rounds among the college football sports boards. Pretty interesting. The numbers run the gamut - some very large as expected,...

Re: MBB Game 31 @Charleston, March 2 (Sat), 2 PM
One thing I don't like is they've taught Carlos to never finish at the basket and constantly kick out. Sometimes he needs to finish the drive, that's point half the time even with a shooting team. Makes zero sense to me to have guards that don't attack and get to the line. I love a good kickout for ...

Thanks Jojo for starting this thread!

BUT the CAAT can get weird, and I do think any of those 3 could pu...

Huge, my niece will be there as well - she's had an absolute blast at Bama, graduating this May, very excited to be there to congratulate her.
Is your daughter at Bama, or visiting for UT?
