More from TL

Left-hander that can go right. Hell of a passer and averaged over 4 steals per game, so defense is a priority. Just 5-11 but powerfully-built.

We’ll take anything at this point. Here’s some from Nick and Jakigh

We were on ESPN2, ESPNU and CBS Sports Network (both National TV networks) seven times last year. Lost to Florida on ESPN2 by 6, lost to Xavier by 22 on ESPN, blew the Buffalo game by three on ESPNU, beat St. Joe's on ESPNU by 12 (all at the Charleston Trny), beat Drexel at home on CBSSN by 16, lost at Delaware on CBSSN by six and beat NE by three on the road on CBSSN. So, we were 3-4 on National TV, got blown out once and went 2-1 in conference.

Again? The last time we were on National TV, we beat Northeastern on the road. On CBS Sports. Yes, we lost to them in the CAA Trny, which was on Flo Sports. Not exactly National Free TV. This ain't St. Joe's of yesteryear. BTW, we beat them by 12 last year on ESPNU. National TV.

I believe that they were going overseas and couldn’t play us. My guess is that they canceled that and decided to play us. In all honesty, with few or no fans, there is very little home court advantage between two local schools.

The UMBC game is apparently at home.

Ok, Pat let the cat out of the bag so to speak at the coaches' video conference today. Playing St. Joe's at the Veterans Classic Navy on CBS Sports.

Yawn. Who gives a shit how many tickets were given away, but for three games, they marketed the f-ck out of the team and fans showed up. Then we lost those big home games and the crowds shrunk to about half the size. We do agree that nobody is going to show up save for some students, alums, friends and family. All I care about at this point is that we can safely have a season without losing half the team to quarantine. If they can get a 1,000 fans to watch them, it's a victory.

The cut is for each sport. We don’t know what each sport is doing to cut the budget. I’m guessing they are not doing much traveling for recruiting so that saves money right there. And Football players have always been on campus in the summer. Usually taking summer courses.

We drew around 6,500 a game last season. That’s a little over half capacity. We had nearly 10,000 against Villanova. That will not happen this season due to the virus. Maybe last year was an outlier but those were the facts. That’s why I said half joking.

Here’s a Sun story on the video conference https://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/college/bs-sp-towson-sports-coronavirus-20200618-q64rizyb4rfq5fgzcr45xdcxk4-story.html

Risk what. It’s a lot riskier playing football and our fans normally practice social distancing. Obviously half joking but Crowley made a good point on the video. Maryland is in a pretty good spot right now with restaurants and malls open a half capacity. If it continues to improve by September, I can see fans being allowed because it’s outside.

So, essentially, they will release the video of this at some point next week. They did record it and it went a little bit over an hour. Dan Crowley moderated it, Coach Richardson was on there along with Nathan Wilder (medicine), Terry Porter (compliance) and TL.

Thought it was pretty informative. I’m sure there were hundreds of questions they didn’t get to and DC said they would try and answer them at another time. A lot of stuff about safety and testing as expected. TL expects the football season to be played on time. Tailgating should be back maybe in a safer format, assuming some fans are allowed. But they have to follow the guidelines of the NCAA, the school and the state.

I’m not upset. You just love being you.
