They looked pretty intimidated and nervous at the start, forced shots, etc. in the second half they regained their poise a bit and at least were competitive...this was a learning experience for this team...we have the pieces and the coaching to have a memorable season. Key will be to bounce back and...

ESPN's Pick Center has it at 13.5...would like to see us give them a tough time and score in at least the 70's

Some of the best ball movement and passing I've ever seen in a Hofstra team and I've been around a long time. Our bigs, the two freshmen in particular were active, blocked shots and rebounded well.
Hope Moussa is ok as we need the depth upfront.

Another nice article in the NY POST

Sagarin has us at 71.34 and JU at 63.61 add 4 points for home court advantage for Hofstra and the predicted score works out to about this: Hofstra 75 Jacksonville 63.....I'll take it right now!

Mystery solved! Thought he was someone JAM was hiding on us.

Heard we played well...a little rough around the edges, turnovers and fouls but I heard that
we won more "halfs" than St Joes did.

Hofstra decision.

Nice win! The women are having a great season.

jAM said that when our guys play hard we are very good. It will be up to the staff to put the right guys on the floor and for them to take care of business. The talent is there, time will come real soon to prove it.

Good News! SI just ranked teams #351-150 and we ARE NOT ONE OF THEM! I think virtually EVERY CAA team was listed but NOT US. Interestingly they have DELAWARE listed at 10th in the CAA! First to last!!!!! Wow! See for yourselves http://www.si.com/college-basketball/2014/10/30/college-basketball-previ...

Went to practice yesterday and I was impressed with our overall athleticism, team speed and ability to crash the boards and defend the paint, something that surprised me. Green is the real deal he can get his shot off anytime, anywhere, he's very much like Charles without the big body but with more ...

Stu who will cover Green and Tanksley? Talk about two matchup nightmares

We also played in Syracuse for their tournament, the Carrier Classic. Don't remember if we played Syracuse but we and they were in the field.

WOW, ask and you shall receive!!! AWESOME news!! Talented TRUE PG, consensus 3*, top 10 player in NYC (the 2nd one with J W-F), plays on a great team with AND against TOP competition, and a fantastic 'get' as far as building those local relationships and connections - ton of talent comes out of the...

YUP Great get! The backcourt of the future! it's going to be fun and exciting!

Polito, don't you think that for Buie if it was Manhattan, the alleged favorite he would have already pulled the trigger?

Here's another thought...Maybe Hofstra has backed off in pursuit of greener pastures?

Just say'in

As I said before, the practice facility naming rights ARE available

The naming of the new practice facility is available...Stu???

I think Delaware also has a dedicated practice facility...not sure if any other school does
