Well he isn't going to come in and play point guard. So if he gets any minutes at all it will be at the SG position.

Re: MBB recruits 2016

I don't think, and don't want , BB playing entire games anymore - he needs help - and people can fight me on this all they want, but he lost it the 2nd half of the yr and I contend it's because the season wore on him - not saying he was tired, just worn - he was a total liability for most of the 2n...

Re: MBB recruits 2016

as of now our roster is fairly balanced - assuming no one transfers or gets unexpectedly stuck in their homeland PG - Buie, Powers SG - Bernardi, JFW SF - Robinson, Pemberton PF - Green, Sabaty C - Gustys, Walker wonder if they'd ever RS Walker - as Robinson did after his So year - as of now, along...

Re: MBB @ George Washington 3/14 8PM

Don't see where personal attacks are necessary because someone disagrees on the personnel. I like Buie but he must improve his shot and decision making because Gustys scoring depends on it. As for JWF I'm completely not sold - love his athleticism - question his position. We have 2 PG's so he's a 2...

Re: Kory Holden Transferring!

They still have some, and they p,ay a stingy style, so I'd say around 5th next yr seems fair at this point - but this is a major hit - and one I don't understand yet - he was slated to be THE guy on an up and coming team - plenty of PT for him next yr - Holden at the UD mess I get, this one seems i...

Might have been this score exactly, if Green made two of the three layups he missed in the second half, or if he just made one and Tanksley didn't miss his second-half layup.
Or only one off if the half court three pointer at the end went in.

Re: THE CHAMPIONSHIP!

I echo your thoughts however w have only 9 players on next years roster. Djambo will not be here next year. So unless we add a few graduate student trans or JuCOs we will be in the same hole as this year. Their are still 4 scholarships to be handed out and it seems most likely 1 or 2 will be going ...

Re: MBB recruits 2016

While the season is not over it is unlikely we will receive an invitation to the Big Dance...however I see no reason why we can not be a strong contender next season...the staff has raised the bar and instead of rebuilding for next season we are in a position to reload....I already like the project...

Re: We Can Clinch The Regular Season Title Before Our Last G

Do we need UNCW to lose on Saturday to get the 1 seed? No. We can win the tiebreaker if Towson or William and Mary finish ahead of JMU. There is also another scenario with Northeastern finishing ahead of Charleston that gives us the tiebreaker. These are assuming Towson holds on to this win tonight...

Do you know all the tiebreaker scenarios if Hofstra was to win tomorrow vs UNCW and Hofstra and UNCW both win/lose their last game? Usually the conference puts out a list of the scenarios but it's probably pending the Hofstra/UNCW game. Its best record verse the third place team, then the fourth pl...

Re: Men's Basketbal Best RPI Away Win Ever

Didn't we beat GMU when they were in the top 30? What was the Bonnies' RPI when we played them? George mason finished the 2006 season at 15 in the RPI. We beat them at home and in the CAA tournament. So not sure if that is an away win or not. FYI it looks like we finished that season at 30 in the R...
