On KenPom: RU #35, HU #90.

CC 63 UNCW 58 final

DutchPride86, I fully agree with your analysis. Too many poor offensive sets that became one on one. 40% shooting, poor rebounding, and giving up too many second chance points will cause a loss. Well, onto the NIT with the selection on Sunday evening.

Tougher team won. Credit to UNCW for all the offensive rebounds and second chance points. HU took some very poor shots with too much one on one.

Coach Speedy, "When teams call that first time out, it fuels us!" 14-2 HU!

All well deserved! It is always nice to get validation from your peers. Now, onto three more wins, but as Coach Speedy would say, "Focus on the next one!"

ZMAN3, I did refer to you as a loyal fan for 6 decades. I know the HU location on Sagarin, KenPom (#91 currently) and Massey (#94 currently). My family and I are well aware of how difficult it is for HU to get some positive, and well-deserved, local or national recognition. If Andy Katz wants to giv...

Congrats to Coach Speedy! President Posner and AD Cole,Jr. did the Wright thing! I remember that Coach Speedy said in his introductory press conference, "I won't let you down." We in the HU community are extremely fortunate to have Coach Speedy, his staff, and the athletic administration.

Until April 1-3, 2023 with the Final 4 and Championship games in Houston, aren't all rankings just an opinion and a fabrication? Come on, let us have some fun and speculation. Why do we look a Lunardi's Bracketology if not for fun and speculation. ZMAN3, You have been a loyal HU fan for about SIX DE...

The latest (2-21-23) ESPN Joe Lunardi Bracketology has HU decreased to a #14 seed versus Tennessee in Greensboro. Let's all just concentrate on defeating NU on Saturday afternoon, and then three more victories in DC.

I was wondering if this HU-MSG agreement could lead to any basketball games scheduled at MSG. I would like to see HU as a part of a doubleheader with other local colleges such as St. John's or Rutgers which have had games at MSG this season. How about a return match up with Saint Mary's?

HofstraPride1, I agree. Take care of NU on Saturday afternoon, secure the #1 seed, then get ready for Sunday afternoon in DC. Coach Speedy has always issued the Coach Speak of keeping focus and the next game being the most important.

HU just completed a busy schedule of 5 games in 11 days. I think the team could probably use a break. Playing Saturday-Monday and then Thursday-Saturday, with travel, cannot be easy. Tired legs mean missed shots. Rest up a few days, get in a few good practices, and be ready for NU and then onto DC. ...

Newsday, once again, comes to the party a little late with only three regular season games remaining. Do you think they will now assign a reporter to these games considering they are all on Long Island? Currently on KenPom: HU #93, Hampton #344, SBU #337, NU #296, and for future reference, CC #68, T...

Here's Coach Speak," Respect the game, respect your opponent." All Coach Speedy has to do is reference the last 10 minutes of the NC A&T game. Learn from your mistakes. The most important game is the next game. The #1 seed has the most time between games at the CAA Tournament, 12:00 on...

Well deserved HU win. Towson has always been a difficult opponent. As Coach Speedy says, "The tougher team won." Good to see Coach Joe at the game tonight. Great to be able to control the top CAA Tournament seed.

I think the most important keys to tonight are: 1) Box out on rebounds, especially on the defensive end. Towson's best offensive plays are offensive rebounds and putbacks 2) Hit your shots so there are fewer Towson defensive rebounds 3) How about a few drives to the basket to increase the possibilit...

I also believe one of the keys to the season, as always, is keeping the best players on the field. Encouraging scrimmage results from last Saturday. I was very glad to see the Merrimack game switched to Sunday. Those projected Massachusetts temperatures and wind would be brutal for all involved.

To triplec2195, The HU team is projected to MISS the CAA playoffs in May. There are no first team preseason All CAA player selections for the upcoming 2023 season. There are 3 players listed as Honorable Mention. So, the answer seems to be yes about the lessening of national and CAA relevance. I als...

I thought the idea of 14 CAA members from Massachusetts to South Carolina was to split into 7 north and 7 south member divisions to limit travel and expenses. This proposed 15th Florida member would have to be balanced with a 16th northern member to make an even number of colleges which is preferabl...
