Re: 2026 Transfer Portal
It looks like we just signed another guard from Loyola Chicago- Deywilk Tavarez.. Played at College of Charleston a couple of years ago and averaged 13PPG..

Re: MBB Recruits 2026-27
Transfer portal heating up already.. Besides Thomas, I see LA Pratt who was linked to HU in the past as well as Justin Ray from Monmouth entering the portal.

Re: MBB Game 35 vs. Alabama, March 20 (Fri) 3:15 PM - NCAAT Round 1
including an entire section of HU diehards that stood all game and made noise- something you will never see at the Mack. I’m glad they had the crowd support they deserved. The Selection Sunday watch party had a great turnout as well. How many in Tampa came from the Long Island area? Was it most, an...

Re: MBB Game 35 vs. Alabama, March 20 (Fri) 3:15 PM - NCAAT Round 1
Where can I find a replay of the game? Would love to watch it as I was in Tampa. I DVR'd the game before leaving for Tampa. If you have CBSSports Network, they have been showing replays of the 1st and 2nd round games continuously. Right now they are showing Siena Duke. Unfortunately Fios is not sho...

Re: MBB Game 35 vs. Alabama, March 20 (Fri) 3:15 PM - NCAAT Round 1
I rewatched the game as well after returning from Tampa. The atmosphere was pretty electric in the building especially during that 16-2 run in the 1st half to put them up 10. I wanted to see how it looked on TV and it definitely came across well. After a 25 year wait, it was such an amazing experien...

Re: MBB Recruits 2026-27
HU has been in the CAA long enough to see the conference be better than the A-10. There were years with Mason, VCU, ODU, UNCW, HU, where the CAA was 8th ranked in the country out of 30 conferences and we never really came close to winning the league outside of 2006. I am fine with the CAA as is righ...

Re: 2026 CAA MBB Tournament
Haven’t chimed in on the boards in awhile, but just wanted to add to what a lot of you have shared here. I started watching games at the old PFC in 1998 as a student, specifically Speedy hitting a buzzer beater against Delaware and I have been a fan ever since. So glad I was able to make it down to ...

Re: Next Year's Team
Just saw we got another commit, Carlos Lopez 6'2 from St Francis PA. Looks like another potential high scoring guard. All 3 newcomers appear to have 3 years of eligibility remaining. If Speedy can land 1 or 2 grad transfer bigs, we might have a team.

Re: CAAT Monday, March 11 - Semifinals
Thanks Wags, just watched and it gives a different vibe than the article I read from daily dose of hoops which basically gave HU credit for their effort as if SB played such an unbelievable game and we just came up short. Speedy was clearly dejected in the presser as we all are. But I have an issue ...

Re: CAAT Monday, March 11 - Semifinals
Couldn't find the post game press conference, Hofstra hasn't posted it. I found a small article with some quotes. Seems like Speedy is satisfied with their level of compete. Gave great effort, battled to the end, etc. Really? SB went on a 13-0 in the last 5 minutes of the game. I'm not counting the ...

Re: CAAT Monday, March 11 - Semifinals
Where was the hunger tonight? I've been watching this team for 25 years, this was the worst game/effort I have ever seen. 1 win away from the championship game and they played like it was October. No sense of urgency, no energy, absolutely embarrassing. And honestly, I am being kind. Speedy, this is...

Re: MBB Game 30 @UNCW, Feb. 29 (Thu), 7 PM
It’s going to be hard for us or anyone to win three games in three days without any bench points. This of course appears to be true Jojo, but hopefully this makes you feel better- take a look back at our 2020 championship team and you will see the starters carried us all 3 games. The bench scored a...

Re: 2023 NIT
I don’t think I’ve posted all year but just wanted to say thanks to the team for a great season. This team is in the conversation for my top 5 favorite teams (2000, 2001, 2006, 2016, 2020). Of course the CAA tournament didn’t end the way we all wanted, but they gave us a NIT victory for the ages and...

Re: mens and Womens BB attendance
For what its worth, I have been to games this year at the following gyms/arenas: Hofstra, Iona, Sacred Heart, Univ of Maryland, Naval Academy, U of Richmond, Yale, Quinnipiac, and Mohegan Sun. ALL had mask mandates, all. Since I was there in mid December, Yale stopped allowing any fans at all, alth...

Re: mens and Womens BB attendance
Looked at our attendance so far. Mens is at 1,687 per game. pre pandemic it was 2,887. Also Womens was about 600 and now under 300 per game. Do you really think the pandemic and masks have not affected attendance. That's a 40% drop in attendance. Of course the spectator policy the school implemente...

Re: Calling you out Speedy - Get it Together
Agree Polito. Tonight felt like the Stony Brook game all over again. Team was flat. No visible adjustments were made all game. No timeouts used to stem the tide. Speedy kind of let both games play out. He just lets this happen. His style might be that he trusts in his guys too much. At some point yo...

Re: Game 14 at William & Mary Wednesday December 29 at 7:00
Dubar was playing well recently. To have him and Cooks both limited for a noon Friday tip against a confident Elon team after losing on a Wednesday night is a tough task. Dubar has been good all season and is one of the best players on the team. It would be a huge loss if he misses significant time...

Re: Game 14 at William & Mary Wednesday December 29 at 7:00
Just saw Speedy's post game presser. He basically said some of the things I mentioned earlier. They didn't respect the opponent. He thought they learned their lesson after the SB game but apparently not. He also wasn't happy with their ball screen defense. Cooks and Dubar both have ankle injuries. T...

Re: Omar. YIKES!!!!!!
Omar gets too many minutes. Not sure if it's just because we have nobody else? But something has to change. He should be playing 10-15 minutes max and if he's cold like tonight he should not see the floor more than that. Same with Carlos who at this stage of his young career is a complete non factor...
