Re: MBB Game 1 - Canisius

Gary, I'm more concerned with the decision on Robinson. Not sure why they are redshirting him when the current rotation is 7-8 guys. I sure hope Djambo's return is a guarantee.

Re: MBB Game 1 - Canisius

My thoughts on the game.. I saw several trends from last year come true again last night. Bad free throw shooting, no defense, and Juan'ye Green starts slow and then dominates late. This team has tremendous firepower. No opponents lead is safe. We are going to put points on the board one way or anot...

Re: MBB Game 1 - Canisius

Keep in mind their top scorer from last year Zach Lewis, a former Mo Cassara recruit, transferred to UMASS. But agree, Jim Barron is a good coach and this won't be a Jacksonville State type of opponent. I still expect a double digit victory however :D

Re: MBB recruits 2016

It's been a great week between this and the Kentucky game announcement. Think we already have in place our future Green, Tanksley, Bernardi combo in Buie, JWF and Pemberton. JAM has done a tremendous job here so far, there is no doubt about it. I am fine with landing only 1 player in the early signi...

Re: Hofstra to play Kentucky in 1st sporting event at new Na

This is fantastic news. It would be perfect if the coliseum is ready in time as I think it will sell out. Cactus and I were also there when they beat St John's in 2000. That was a great game, cant believe we havent been able to get a big opponent to play there since. Love Calipari's quotes about Hof...

Re: MBB Game 1 - Canisius

I've been waiting for this since Dixon hit that corner 3 to end our season. I think this is our best chance to reach the tournament since the 2006 team. Hard not to get excited when everywhere you read, Hofstra is the CAA pick. Now they have to go out and do it. And finally it starts tomorrow! I'm r...

Re: Hofstra - Florida State get-together

Today's article has the game back at 5:30 EST. I checked the Paradise Jam's website which has the official bracket. It has the game at 4:30 and at the bottom states add 1 hour for EST, so i think 5:30 it is..

The men have at least 9 games on tv, including several at home.
And the excitement builds!

Re: Midnight Madness October 22

As bad as the dunks were, I'm glad it was our transfer who is sitting out, a freshman and our 10th man who were selected to partake. We don't need any unnecessary injuries to our starters and top players off the bench. JWF definitely displayed his athletic ability, I was impressed. I think the crowd...

Re: Men's Basketball Schedule 2015-16

This was a poorly planned doubleheader by MSG to have this on the same day as a Giants Jets game. I would expect a very poor turnout, even for the St Johns game. As much as I would love to see Hofstra play at MSG, I am a Giants season ticket holder and will be at that game instead. And about St John...

Re: MBB recruits 2016

If true, I am on board with this move. He saw more playing time as a freshman because of our depleted roster and was more productive than he was last season. As a sophomore knowing he was going to get limited minutes, he rushed his shots and was very ineffective, which would be the case again this y...

Re: Men's Basketball Schedule 2015-16

Stu, I hope I'm wrong, but I believe the holiday festival changed the format and it is no longer a tournament. Just a 1 day doubleheader. Wish they would change it back.

Re: MBB recruits 2015

Couldn't agree more. The year of experience together is invaluable. Green, Tanksley and Bernardi should be running on all cylinders this year. Throw in the fact that we will have a senior laden team, (Green, Tanksley, Nichols, Koon, Djambo) the hunger to make the tourney should be at an all time high.

Re: MBB recruits 2015

Believe it or not, this is not a bad pickup. Even though he's a D-III transfer, he turned down 20 D-1 offers his senior year at Oceanside including Iona, Columbia and Marist, to go to Tufts. Talked to my buddy who is a head coach at a high school in Nassau County, and he told me he was the best big ...

Along with the offers mentioned above, we also offered 2 HS freshman NYC guards, Omar Silverio from St. Rays and Bryce Wills from Iona Prep. I dont think we need to start a 2018 recruiting thread yet, just wanted to add these guys to the mix. Also offered a '16 kid from Philly, Charlie Brown. We had...

Buie led all scorers with 22. Looks like we are getting a good one.
