    Are we a three point shooting team?

    How does our staff not get Solo to try to get to the foul line area for the midrange jumper that he is good at making? Just shooting long 3s is such a lazy play. All our shooters need to make an effort to shoot from the 3 point line and not bomb from 6 feet outside it. We get empty possessions...

    Big East Tournament Thread

    Went to the BET in Providence. Cuse beat us and IIRC we were never in the game in second half. Louie Orr buried us with baseline jumpers. The following year we melted down at HCC and lost to St Johns and Chris Mullins.

    Kemba's Moment: Matt Norlander's Vantage Point

    Looked like Wayne Norman there with the Wooow! as the camera panned to the crowd and he was making his way to the court for postgame interviews. I was at work and had to listen on the radio. Was great to get home and see the highlights.

    Stewart on crutches....

    Possible 3 games in 3 days somehow Hurley has to get rest for Silas and Karaban. So either Smith can play 5-8 minutes or we will have to run with Ross, Mullins, Ball and no Silas for a few. Could Karoma get 4-5 minutes as a defender and rebounder while Karaban rests as we go with Ross and a...

    Stewart on crutches....

    He has been one of my favorite players on this team. How are we still getting no info on whether he will be available for Thursday at 7PM? Karaban needs to not have to play 40 minutes. Not happy with Hurley or the press covering our team.

    Hurley Suspension?

    The MQ drive that gave Reed his 4th foul was less contact than Silas on his drive at the end of the game. I think Hurley was saying to the ref you cant make or not make a call based on how much time is on the clock. We did not play well enough but that contact draws a foul 90% of the time. Reibe...

    Deep breaths

    Wife and I yelling at the TV all game Saturday like wake up you guys! Where is the coaching!? And yet as Silas drove down the lane I was ready to go nuts if we went to OT. At this point it is up to the players to get their heads on straight and be the team they should be. Believe you guys! It is...

    Marquette Post Game Thread

    Correct. Starting Ross over Ball would be the move and screw with opponents plans. But we all know Hurley will not do it.

    Marquette Post Game Thread

    Mullins got in the paint or low block a few times in the second half and passed it back out. Why no shot? Draw a foul. We place so much pressure on Silas to do everything and no one steps up to do anything but jack 3s. Huge blown opportunity today. Silas and Reed had no help. The coaches never...

    Seton Hall Post Game Thread

    Not sure I have seen a graduating senior have a better game than Alex Karaban did today. As the game was going on I was getting the feeling it was Creighton at Gampel 2.0. Seton Hall took Silas out of the game and Tarris was struggling to hold onto the ball and rebound in traffic. Reibe made 2...

    Death Storm 2.0

    HuskyHawk. I have a 1988 Ariens 8HP snowblower. In February 2021 the same thing happened to me. Everything worked but no power to the wheels. I took it to W H Preuss in Bolton Notch on RT 44.. I had a broken spring for the drive idler arm. They split the unit and replaced the drive belt as...

    Villanova Post Game Thread

    It was good to hear him say it right after the game. Everybody was involved last night and they clicked. Just dial back the careless turnovers, keep up the team focus on D, stop jacking long distance 3s and we should get back to a higher level of play that makes us tough to beat.

    Death Storm 2.0

    The thing with this storm is the wind. The onshore waves are going to a serious problem on eastern facing beaches. The Marconi stairs in Wellfleet are still there at Cape Cod NS. They were rebuilt this Spring. I will be surprised if they survive. This will be a bear for road crews to clear with...

    Poor fan showing at Gampel

    So actually it is Georgetown that should play in The Fieldhouse. Have seen the sparse crowds at GTown in other BE games. Looks real bad and Cooley was on our fans. Cripes. And GTown did play in The Fieldhouse back in the late 70s. I think we had John Thomas at center and maybe Jeff Carr. IIRC we...

    Either Stewart or Ross needs to start

    Stewart has been a good passer on the interior. I would start him over Ball. And then we can still bring in Ross for his energy in the frontcourt. We need Stewart to be a factor and not an invisible man. Ball can sub in for Braylon. Hurley needs to get his 3 point shooters to be more disciplined...
