Re: Game#6 Siena
I hadn't really looked up the stats on Siena but now I have and it seems to me some exaggerated narratives here. I for one know they have a good basketball tradition and we've seen the kind of following they have. Siena to really state the record correctly lost to COC in O/T the team predicted to wi...

Re: Game#6 Siena
My recollection the last time we played Molloy we won by around 30 after a sluggish and close first half. I don't like these kind of games because there's no upside for the Div one team. If they blow them out everyone will say so what there D-2 but if the game is close then we have to listen to Hofs...

Re: Game#6 Siena
We already have a solid point guard in Buie. He is averaging 3.2 assists in 18 minutes a game. If he is healthy enough he should be playing more minutes and probably can average 5 assists. He isn't going to score like powers or green but we don't need that from a point guard. We have plenty of othe...

Re: Game 10 - Stony Brook
Does anyone have any current info. on getting tickets for this game? I would like to see Hofstra beat these guys although I saw parts of their game against Michigan state and they played well.

Does anyone have any inside info. on any recruits including this kid Kupsas? It seems things are very quiet on HU prospects!

Re: Media Thread
I'm reading Newsday this morning and was curious to see what kind of coverage Hofstra would get against Siena. I found an article that was a few small paragraphs long and the headlines read "Gustys 1,000th point is wasted as COLD -SHOOTING Hofstra Falls to Siena" It says Gustys scored 18 p...

Re: Game#6 Siena
Thanks Gary for that info. The heart and soul of most teams is their PG play and they lost a good guard in Deron Powers. I know some people knocked him maybe because he was small and bigger guards shot over him but still scored 13 + a game last year and had a lot of assists. I'm not sure if there is...

Re: Game#6 Siena
Lots of venting and rightfully so. Lets not be so quick to throw the entire coaching staff under the bus. Clearly there's been success over the years and that's not just a coincidence. I watched Speedy play over the years and know he brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. All those people who ar...

Re: Game#6 Siena
OK so let's get buckled in guys because this could be a long season. I've said recently that the keys to this team are our defense and our PG play. This game was indicative where are improvements need to be made. Their freshman PG had almost as many assists as our whole team(11/13). Our PG's had a t...

Re: Men's Basketball RPI Predictions From RPI Forecast
I don't think about THE NIT trying to stay focused on one thing and that's the NCAA's. A tough road with a lot of speed bumps. Two years ago JM complained big time about having to play on the road against George Washington. We had a higher RPI than GW from what I believe and certainly would have had...

Re: Men's Basketball RPI Predictions From RPI Forecast
I not sure what all that statistical nonsense is but if they lose 8 games in the conference I would be disappointed. The conference has tough teams from top to bottom so there really is no easy games. I still say the jury is out on their PG play and for me that's the whole enchilada. It's clear that...

Re: Game 5 - Auburn
Both of these guys don't really have much of a mid range game and nothing beyond the arc. Obviously the trend is to have bigs that can shoot beyond the arc and not playing with their back to the basket. These guys are at a premium and I imagine that's the reason that everybody is signing players out...

Re: Game 5 - Auburn
Lots of really good observations and insight into these games. My feeling is they were beat by bigger better and more athletic teams. In the Clemson game where there was very little room for error they had seven block shots to our ZERO! In the Auburn game Auburn had six blocked shots to our ZERO! In...

Re: MBB Recruits 2018
I was also hoping that Angus will be that guy blocking shots grabbing rebounds and getting put backs. An enforcer type guy and he clearly has the size at 6' 6" and 240 he's a big boy.

Re: Midnight madness
No mention of any major injuries by Mihalich during the Masons coaches report with Stephen Gorchov on Monday. I did see Wormley with a bandaged leg during Midnight Madness and he didn't appear to participate that night nor did Angus!

Re: Midnight madness
I personally didn't see Angus even get on the basketball court and noticed that Wormley had his leg bandaged up. He didn't partake much in the on court stuff.

Good info. We need to get some big bodies to replace Gustys, Sabety and Angus.

Re: MBB - Exhibition @ Fairfield, 10/23 7 pm
I haven't posted before but have been watching Hofstra basketball since the mid 70's. My take on the exhibition game vs. Fairfield. Based on http://www.collegesportsmadness.com/mens-basketball/top-144-previews Fairfield is ranked #107 in the country while HU is ranked 133. I don't know much about th...
