    Glad to get the win, but face off remains an unsolved weakness. What is wrong with our coaches that we haven’t had a stud since Woodall seven years ago?

    Disagree. Matt C. won 59% of the face-offs coming into this game and he went against one of the best face-off guys in the conference. He struggled but they wound up 50% overall. He's still at 58% so while he's not Alex Woodall, he's not bad either.

    Discipline in terms of stop committing penalties? Playing better with a big lead? Goaltending and defense needs to continue to improve. But for the most part, this is a much more enjoyable team than in past year's and while the still have some warts, the question is, can they put it together in the CAA Tournament and beat Delaware?


  2. Very cold and windy Saturday and believe me, there are other things I'd rather be doing,, but here I am. I did want to see more of the offense with Carlos Davis at the helm and I do think with an experienced offensive line, a strong set of running backs and solid group of WRs with a All-Conference tight end, that's going to be a strength in 2024. Davis can make plays with his feet and arm that we haven't seen since Tom Flacco with a stronger arm. I don't sense that he'll run a lot though I can see them design some runs for him. But he made the nice throw on the run to Oregon State transfer John Dunmore, that was only about 10 yards, but a big-time throw.

    RB Ike Daniels looked impressive, the Syracuse transfer. He's a patient runner and has the speed to break it outside. Dunmore was very impressive with his size (6-3, 205) though most of our corners are small. That's a problem and I think they'll bring in at least one corner if not two as Sean Tucker (ECU transfer) left the team. Probably looking at a LB, two DBs, a DL and an OL for depth purposes in the portal. 

    To me, the defense is the biggest concern with this team right now. Need to get the right DL rotation, I like John Gioia at ILB, but we can use another, bigger OLB. 

     

     


  3. This is what I dislike about this team. They have a chance to get the last shot of the quarter up 7 and Sam Morin (LSM) takes a long shot with 22 seconds left. Hofstra gets the ball back and Reece Potter gets a one-minute tripping penalty with 8 seconds left. No Hofstra has an EMO in the fourth quarter and they've scored 3 straight goals so they have some momentum.
