Re: MBB at UNCW 2/25 - HUGE GAME!

JG=CAA POY! Wow, what a finish. Onto payback CofC on Saturday Afternoon. Some of these HU games have the such swings. Tonight's UNCW game reminded me of the W&M game at the Mack where their only lead over HU was at the end of the game.

Re: MBB at UNCW 2/25 - HUGE GAME!

After one half, all the stats go to UNCW. In my opinion. HU looks slower and not as intense. Maybe the difficult travel from NY to NC took its toll. Hoping for a turn around in the second half.

Re: WRHU Sports

So how many of you HU fans say that WRHU does not clearly reach your area via the FM radio. Now there are a options via the internet and cell phones. I wonder how many other colleges get so many men's and women's sports covered by this many options. The WRHU staff does a great job. I agree that they...

Re: Men's Lacrosse 2016

All these new polls are great, but remember it is only February. The preseason Lax community did not think very much of HU's chances in 2016 with a 40th place ranking. Let's get through a few games first. How many poor April and May performances have we all seen over many Lax seasons? Just win the n...

Stuball888, the BB game is on ASN. It is on locally on SNY. According to the listings, the CofC game is a delayed broadcast that begins at 5:00pm on Saturday. The Lax game is on the new internet based Lax Sports Network. The upcoming Lax games with Georgetown and Ohio State are also on this network....

Re: MBB vs. UNCW

The Newsday headline tells about a blown 20 point lead for HU and a 1st place victory for UNCW. Four field goals and shooting 18% in the second half will not win many CAA games. Do you think this performance encourages the LI sports fan to want to attend one of the remaining three home games? How do...

Re: MBB vs. UNCW

I have not been this excited for a regular season CAA game in a long long time. I hope the HU community comes out. I really believe this is an important step for the rest of the regular season. You must win your home league games to position yourself to do well in the CAAT with the most amount of re...

Re: Media Thread

Polito, I agree with you 100%. Make your own story, winning takes care of everything. Banners, rings, NCAAT, NIT, and CAA Championships are the primary focus and last forever. All the other things we all have been wanting for such a long time take care of themselves so much easier. To quote Al Davis...

Re: Lack of HU Sports Advertising/Marketing is UNACCEPTABLE

ZMAN3, I agree with what you are saying, something is missing. Maybe it is the lack of a true student section to get the arena excited. I fondly remember the students in costumes, Speedos, bodysuits, makeup, etc. distracting opponents during foul shots. The HU Midnight Madness crowd in the fall lead...

Re: Lack of HU Sports Advertising/Marketing is UNACCEPTABLE

Wags, I have spoken with people in my neighborhood and at work about HU basketball. You tell them about the level of play, the arena, ease of parking, relatively low cost, etc. All you get is a blank stare. They really cannot be bothered. They have no rooting interest at all. They would only go to a...

Re: Lack of HU Sports Advertising/Marketing is UNACCEPTABLE

Wags, you have to look at how many seasons have past since the AE champion teams and the CAA NIT teams. For the students of 2015-2016, it was a long time. Most of the students do not recall those teams. If you were in the Arena, it was special. The only thought I can give you is that I do not recall...

Re: Lack of HU Sports Advertising/Marketing is UNACCEPTABLE

On another thread, there was a mention of HU should change conferences because the CAAT is going to South Carolina instead of Baltimore. With those attendance totals, what other conference would welcome HU? Do any of you think the A10 would even consider HU? You really cannot make a logical reason f...

Re: MBB vs. Elon, 1/28

Give JM credit that he listens to a star player at the end of a game. Sometimes you just know you can make a game winning shot during the last few seconds. Give JG credit that he wants the ball. To hold Elon in the 60s and have fouls to give to use on defense at the end of a CAA game speaks volumes....

Re: Breaking CAA News

Adding SBU and Albany seems to be the best option. I really do not believe that the southern colleges will go along with only adding northern schools.

Re: Breaking CAA News

HofstraPride1: That's why I think the administration of the three northern nonfootball colleges should look as a unit. What conference wants to expand and gain these three? Remember, HU's travel in the CAA is not as difficult as NU. These three are good schools that are misplaced now. Another option...

Re: Breaking CAA News

As been stated previously, the reasons why the CAAT in in South Carolina is MONEY. You cannot make fans come to games that they have no interest in. Fans go to games in person for specific reasons, otherwise just turn the TV on. HU,NU,DU,TU,and UD at this time do not have a large enough number of fa...

Re: Andre Walker

AW now is the time to step up. Show that you want to be a Division 1 player that can make a difference. Play defense, get rebounds, clear space, be tough, give the ball to the guards on the break, etc. You now have the chance, seize the opportunity.
