Barring something unfortunate, gotta think we'll be faves in any game the rest of the way, unless we face Towson in DC

Re: MBB @ Delaware, Saturday, 2/12/22, 6:30 PM

We led by 10, but Ryan Allen made two threes in the last 42 seconds to go down 39-35. He became third in career points for them. After Burgess missed the rim for a shot clock violation, Delaware had 7.4 seconds, and I'm wondering if Burgess didn't expect Allen to shoot that soon. Estrada, Simmons, ...

Re: MBB vs. JMU, Saturday, 2/5/22, 2 PM

Jenkins had the heart of a champion, but fell a little short in the athleticism needed for the NBA. Not quick enough to play the point and needed another 2 inches or so to be a shooting guard

Re: CAA Expansion

We are not going anywhere and watch…we will be on ESPN after this year, mark my words. I’m not worried about Stony Brook, we NEED rivalries, makes both programs better…wish we had more. I'm with you on rivalries being good for Hofstra. Hopefully Monmouth also turns into a nice regional rivalry as w...

Re: Zaire Baines - MBB Recruit?

I don't know anything about him, but I do see he is only 5'10", and did not make all-county in Nassau last year, which means he's likely ranked outside about the top 35 or so players. Nassau is not exactly a hotbed of talent

Re: 2021-22 Men's Mid Major Poll

Omar has size neither Ray (I'm pretty sure he's not 6'2" as listed) nor Cooks do, so he can defend bigger players. I remember Carlos Rivera would post up smaller guards. Omar has a similar frame, but he never really developed that skill. Omar can get hot, and then we need to ride him. When he d...

Re: MBB Game 19 at Northeastern: January 22 at 12:00 P.M.

Our previous game where both halves had the same margin was a 73-71 loss hosting Delaware on January 23, 2020. The first half score was 38-37, and the second half score was 35-34. Our previous game where both halves had the same double-digit margin was a 73-45 loss at St. Bonaventure on December 7,...

Re: MBB Game 19 at Northeastern: January 22 at 12:00 P.M.

We outscored Northeastern by exactly 11 points each half. That has to be incredibly rare, to outscore an opponent by the same amount of points each half, much less by exactly 11 points! Fascinating! I wonder if we have ever been outscored by the same amount of points each half, whether or not the ma...

We are somehow -2.5 faves. The bookies do a lot better with the P5 games- I think they're off on this one! I could never bet against the alma mater, but I think there's $ to be made here, were you so inclined.

Re: Drexel -Monday 1/17/22 @4

Gutty win for us. Ray and Estrada put this team on their backs in the second half. Great display of mid range shooting from both when the threes wouldn't drop. Questionable call by the refs taking one of our points off the board well after Estrada was credited with a three. Undefeated at home!?? I ...

Re: Game 13 @Monmouth, 12/22/21, 7 PM

Not shocking we ran out of gas in the second half- Cooks brings a lot of minutes/energy to be replaced. We showed some class closing it out
