Re: MBB Recruits 2022

Not sure if this has been reported elsewhere on this forum but I came across this article today and definitely puts into perspective Speedy’s commitment when it comes to recruiting. Also, Farmer seems like a great add with good intangibles! Article here https://www.inquirer.com/high-school-sports/pe...

Re: MBB Game 1 - San Jose State, 11/6/19, 7 PM

So I will say that the world is not falling, SJS could be a good team we don't know. Sometimes these types of games are a wakeup call. I remember the time the Patriots started a season 2-2 and then won the SB after everyone though their reign was over. I'm gonna keep beating a dead horse here though...

Re: MBB Game 1 - San Jose State, 11/6/19, 7 PM

Did anyone notice how SJS had a corner three open every single time they wanted it? I mean it was obvious that that was the case, particularly in the second half. They had a player just keep running to the corners and they were honestly always open. Now it could be the zone and/or bad coaching, but ...

Re: MBB Recruits 2019

FWIW during check-in day for the athletes this summer, one of the RA's asked a group of members if someone would be redshirting. I was busy doing work but I do recall them conversing amongst each other and coming to the conclusion that they were not aware of anyone who would be. Obviously the decisi...

It's move in day for the basketball teams and I got to talk to JR. He believes in himself and thinks he will be the breakout player, and he's been working hard to make himself stronger. That should help a lot if he wants to create more of inside game He has high hopes for the team and really believe...

Re: CAA Championship Game Watch Party - Hofstra USA

I was taken back by how good the atmosphere was at HOFUSA for this game. I was especially expecting little after the poor student atmosphere at our last home game, with people getting into fights over who’s standing and who’s not. Really contributed to a fun game and I know my friends and I had a gr...

Re: Justin Wright-Foreman's Legacy

I agree with Hofstra, yea this is super frustrating but he was a great, great player. Being a student I know people that know him well and he’s always in pain. His body has taken a lot of punishment already in his career. Blessed to watch him play this long. However, he can’t be the GOAT here at Hof...

Re: MBB Game 29 vs. James Madison on February 23 4:00 P.M.

Kind of sad for the student section today as a student. Was basically told to sit down after trying to stand up. Usually it isn’t this bad but just a lot of people came for the shirts and don’t know how to enjoy a game. Really sucks. I’ve been here three years and I just don’t know how to get the en...

Re: WRHU Sports

We understand, but the point is that when we don't play at the same time as the Islanders, we should be on WRHU rather than only online. Yea that's fair, but honestly I do not know who is in charge of those decisions at the radio station. I do know that when you hear those speciality shows on the w...

Re: WRHU Sports

I’m a student and I work on RHU (though not so much this semester due to internship requirements) and I know it’s a strict requirement that we have at least a 15 min post game and we usually try to keep the broadcast going until we can get the coaches post game interview. Sometimes we don’t but we d...

Re: Hofstra vs W&M 1/10/19

Overall, pleased we came out with a tough road wind. Remember that we’re only now 4-3 on the road so we’ve still got a lot to prove! But road wins are always impressive and especially this W&M team that played a pretty brutal OOC schedule. Still waiting to see how legit Delaware is this season. ...

Re: Different Team

This team playing very well right now and doing to teams what they should be doing. Just exciting to see them having won 8 of 11 and pretty much all close losses against good teams. That being said, I’m worried that this team is too guard dependent now with TC in the lineup. How are we going to matc...

Re: MBB Game 3: vs. North Carolina A&T (Wed 11/14)

At the end of the day, the loyalists like me are gonna come (unless I'm working the game at the radio station) to every game but the ones during the week are just gonna be difficult. Honestly, I think Hofstra has done a great job with promoting the games which helped with the big turnout. They perso...

A scout from the clippers was there looking at JWF Taylor and Tobias Harris youngest brother Terry Sat next to him at the game and was talking to him about JWF.

Re: MBB Game 2 at Marshall on November 11, 2018 at 2:30 P.M.

Not a bad game from Hofstra, going on the road in just 48 hours to play what (I read earlier on this thread) is the 6th best team outside of the Power 6 conferences? Pretty impressive. I wanted to say this earlier but I've been busy, I really think they should give Matija Radovic a start. A long win...

Re: UPCOMING 2018-19 SEASON

Everyone saying Hofstra needs better defense is totally right. As a student, Coach Mihalich gave a speech to a select group of us before the beginning of the school year, using the team's propensity to not play defense and only score as an incentive to get students to go. "You guys know, we don...
