Re: Next Year's Team

Just a note here for next year: Someone on this staff needs to teach KJ how to actually be a PG. Kid has ZERO clue. Like NONE. Knows NO plays, runs NO plays, commands NO offense, puts NO ONE in position. Literally just dribbles for 15 seconds, looks once for anyone to pass to, sees no one, backs up ...

Re: Hofstra Lacrosse 2024

...Hofstra doesn't seem to even acknowledge it or even give a damn. Lost track of how many years I've said this repeatedly. Should be screamed from the mountain tops by every person who actually cares. Reckless and blatant negligence. But ST cruising and cashing those checks. I don't blame him. I d...

Re: MBB Game 30 @UNCW, Feb. 29 (Thu), 7 PM

Wild that HU is even in this position this year. Thankful they are. The rubber meets the road these final two games. Trask is going to be electric and a raucous atmosphere - will either bring the best or worst out in this group. Glad HU can lean on their Duke experience to prepare. Let's see the jui...

Re: Softball 2024

For goodness sake. That's an even worse loss than Bucknell. No reason for this, knew the team needed hitting, so what was done in the offseason to address? These programs aren't on HU's level. Raise the bar ladies. I'm living vicariously through VT in many sports lately (just not their mens hoops lo...

Re: Tom Pecora

Happy for TP - no real lingering issue with him, been a long time and he did what he felt best for his family and career. And yeah I'd pump the breaks on QU making the dance anytime soon just because TP is now the HC. Not that kind of program, and he's been a lead assistant for years, not like whole...

Re: MBB Game 29 Elon, Feb. 24 (Sat), 7 PM

HU should beat Elon by 15 at home at this point in season. Let's go, TCB. I'll be there with a sizable crew - last home game of the year, looking forward to a good showing, good crowd, and a win to send them off to the biggest games in the entire conf that will literally determine the top 4. It's be...

Re: Newsday Coverage or Lack Of

Newsday is awful and I haven't read that paper in many MANY years. Not sure why any of you still do. It's a terrible outlet, hates on a lot of things they shouldn't, is not well respected, and has NEVER respected HU. That said, I fully agree it is still important for HU. And I completely agree that ...

Re: Raheem Morris

Good thing HU cut the sport. It was clearly not producing any returns. Can't even market it properly because it makes them look like complete fools for murdering it. And now that the legend Jay Wright is done, this U and athletic department has only FOOTBALL people at the top of their game in the on...

Amen, preaching to the choir on the bigs. I am SO ever sick and tired of the soft as charmin post guys this program brings in. Constantly with the "finesse" players. D O G S. This program needs DOGS. And post players that play with some actual authority. I've never seen so many bigs in a p...

Re: MBB Game 25 @ NC A&T, Feb. 10 (Sat), 2 PM

Very, very nice to see a game of total domination with HU on the winning end. Haven't seen that all year. A breath of much needed fresh air. Awful opponent, but that's what you should do vs them - strike first, draw blood, keep the foot on the gas, and never let up. Nice all too rare display this se...

Re: Next Year's Team

On paper, next year is going to be a disaster. This staff has done a very poor job developing any bench or up and coming talent. Next to no one to be truly excited about. KJ can be a star, maybe a little hope for Farmer and Sunday, but other than that this roster is very poor. And I'm sorry to say s...

Re: Hofstra Lacrosse 2024

Ok, so here we go - this next game is a big one if my prayer of a prediction at a shocking good season will come to fruition. This is ST's chance to make a big statement by actually beating his former student for once. Navy isn't top tier at all right now, but this is more about ST than how good the...

Re: 2023-2024 Men's Basketball Nonconference Opponents

So they are a team that actually improved. That's what this means. In no way shape or form does this mean HU is good or beat a good team lol. That win was light years ago in the basketball season. HU was and is bad, and beat an even worse USF team at the time. Their players and staff regrouped, adju...

Another opp to squeeze out a W - just keep winning however possible before the last two games of the year.

Re: MBB Game 24 @ Hampton, Feb. 8 (Thu), 7 PM

HU is very fortunate to play in a garbage conference - it's the only reason this team is able to squeeze out any wins. We all know this group isn't very good, so any real expectations at this point are gone for me - whatever they do they do - will take any W however it comes, and I've fully accepted...

Will take every win however they come. And Towson is a nice one to get. These last two seem to have been very big for both Thomas and Dubar - TT especially - he does seem to be playing a bit different, thankfully. His shots, mostly, look more purposeful and I am really liking that he is A) driving a...

Agree completely dp86, right on the money. It's not the ideal use of him. To his credit he has managed and is obviously an impact player on a quality SEC team. And he's making himself some money, so it's all good. But he'd be better off with a different strategy. Perhaps something we can use to our ...
