Re: MBB Game 33 - CAA Semifinals - W&M - 3/8/15, 2:30 PM NBC

Still getting over what happened last Sunday. I was concerned for my health walking out of that arena after Dixon's 3. A crushing defeat. But after seening how flat W&M was the next night, we probably would have suffered the same fate. I think this loss will make us stronger for next year. It wi...

Re: MBB Game 32 - CAA Quarterfinals - JMU - 3/7/15, 2:30 PM

Game went just as I had hoped. 40 minutes of effort on D. When we do that, we can beat anyone in the CAA. W&M should be worried. I just purchased tix for the semi-finals. I'll be driving down the turnpike in the AM. Roll Pride!!!

Re: MBB Game 32 - CAA Quarterfinals - JMU - 3/7/15, 2:30 PM

Gameday has finally arrived. I'm expecting to see this team in "tournament mode." And that means 40 minutes of effort on D. There's no tomorrow if they don't bring the D and I think they are fully aware of that. We should know early in the game which Hofstra team has shown up. But i think ...

Re: MBB recruits 2015

Justin Wright Foreman scored 19 in that game for Construction. Looks like we are getting 2 guards that can really score. Hopefully 1 or both can contribute immediately next year.

The lowest seed we can get is 5. We are 2 games up on both Drexel and Delaware so there are no tiebreakers involved here.

Re: The Race For First

I looked at this quick but I think we should root for Drexel to beat W&M. UNCW beat NE twice this year so if they both win their final games and finish 13-5, the finish should be 1-UNCW, 2- NE, with 3-W&M at 12-6 if they lose to Drexel. This would give us JMU then UNCW in the semi's while NE...

Re: MBB Game 29 - W&M - 2/22/15 - 4:30 - NBC Sports

It seems like ever since we joined the CAA we never get the calls. Any questionable calls always seem to go to our opponents. I don't recall having that problem in the America East days. From my seat, the last 2 calls that Thornton got were very questionable. He kicked his leg out on the 3, and he w...

Re: MBB Game 29 - W&M - 2/22/15 - 4:30 - NBC Sports

According to Twitter reports, Daniel Dixon is out with a hamstring injury. He was 6-6 from 3-point range in the last meeting. Considering this news and W&M travel issues, it seems we are catching a bit of break. But, they still need to go take care of business. We'll see.

Re: The Race For First

Anyone know the tiebreakers? I would assume head to head would be first, but I'm wondering how the seeds will be determined if teams split their head to heads. Also how would seeds be determined in 3, 4 of 5-way ties??? This is setting up to be a quite a finish.

Re: MBB Game 28 - @ Towson - 2/18/15

This was a gritty road win. Think about this team on January 31. It was a team that lost its way and gave little effort. Tonight, in the first 10 minutes, Towson could do no wrong and this officiating crew blew the whistle every possession it seemed. But you learn alot about a team by how they respo...

Re: MBB Game 27 - @ Drexel - 2/15/15, 5 PM on SNY

I wouldn't mind a 4-5 matchup against Drexel in the quarterfinals. We match up very well with them. I’m not sure they came to play yesterday, but we certainly did. And you couldn't say that a few games ago about this team. I think since the Towson game, which was rock bottom for us, you can't questi...

Re: MBB Game 25 - Elon - 2/7/15, 7 PM

Order is being restored with this team. Thats 2 games in a row holding our opponents to 69 points. Last night the effort on defense was evident. We still had some defensive lapses, but this team will never be great defensively. To win the CAA, they just need to give great effort on D and last night ...

Re: MBB Game 22 - @ W&M - 1/28/15, 7 PM

Giving up 100 is embarrassing. Terrible start- they lacked confidence, intensity and effort in the 1st half. I'm losing some faith in this staff. The last 3 losses are on them. I don't see any adjustments. Nichols starts every game and then never sees the court in the 2nd half. Jamal Robinson is not...

Re: MBB Game 19 - UNCW - 1/17/15, 2 PM

I don’t think this was the coaching staff’s best day. Why did Nichols play only 3 minutes in the 2nd half? He had his best half of the season in the 1st half IMO. Then he had a turnover on a fast break early in the 2nd half and didn’t see the court until the final minute. Meanwhile Bernardi played 3...

Re: MBB Game 18 - @ Northeastern - 1/14/15, 7 PM

Poorly officiated game. You have 2 of the top teams in the conference and you had whistle happy refs. Hate that, let them play. 38 Free throws is ridiculous. On the positive, we were in that game all the way until the end. As bad as the defense was, I doubt Northeastern shoots 64% from the field aga...

Tanksley 31st, Green 57th in the country in player efficiency. Nesmith not in the top 100. Consider also if D'angelo Harrison and St Johns continue to drop off, Green will have a good shot at winning the Haggerty.

Better talent, no, but thus far they have played better than him this year I love Dion and he's a very important piece, but this is a little bit of a stretch. There's only ONE player in the country averaging 17 pts, 6 assts, 5 rebs a game. Think about that. Juan'ya fills up the box score pretty wel...
