If we didn’t piss away that game against Charleston, would be in first place. Looking at their schedule looks like they have two really rough games left and a mid tier wm team with some of the bottom feeders. If they can finish top 3/4 in the first year with a new coach, that’s pretty impressive.

Again I said could return as he has eligibility. I don’t expect any of the seniors with eligibility to return. Most have degrees already and like you said can play overseas and start their lives outside of school

Those are some tall tasks. We would be lucky for 1 win. overall a good slate of games across the entire basketball slate

Could. He would also be 25 years old haha

They did. But couldn’t lose again until the finals against a top team. Loss at Drexel killed their chances

He doesn’t need a medical redshirt. He, Nick and Charles could all come back next year.

2009 and 2014 we were close. None of those 3 did we ever think we were going to do it but all were 1 possession games with Around 5 left. I’m not. But I’ve seen this story way too many times before and up close. Doesn’t matter how many we win in the regular season, it’s the same story

“Breaking”. Yeah right. This was apparent since mid December

Haha. We all know the answer to that. A winning season is all we can hope for because we aren’t winning more than a game in march ever

Hofstra and Clemson are good offensive teams. They are always going to get good looks. We are a solid, not great by any means defensive team. We shrink the game which inflates some of the defensive stats. Honestly I feel like Hofstra got better looks in the first game. They had numerous wide open jumpers. Last night some were contested. Pat is resultant to switch defenses. Which if you’ve ever seen us go zone for a possession or two you would know why. Now the season finale we need to play some zone because uncw doesn’t shoot well and our guards aren’t good enough to stay with the the quicker uncw players. Our plan B on offense is Charles. He was great the last two games in the pick and roll. But with foul trouble that wasn’t there. We struggled with points in the paint last night

I think he is what he is from the line. It’s not a funk, he’s just a 65% shooter. estrada May transfer again to a bigger school. He can likely make more NIL money than g league I don’t think anyone relish in these types of losses. Season isn’t over. Chance for the top 2 seeds like is. Hofstra has the tiebreaker over us. If both teams go in equal the second to last game, and we pull out a win in that house of horrors then yes we have a chance. Hofstra is good so it’s not crushing. But we didn’t play well, had players out (they had Marshall out too) and were up 7 with 5 to go. Had a real chance to steal one. 4 in 4 is almost impossible. I think maybe 3/4 times in the old caa did a team outside thr top 5 even make the finals

5 second count. Bad foul shooting. Russel and Holden not being able to throw the ball in the ocean and the Inability to get stops, killed us. tough when you’re a team of role players to win on the road Against a very good offensive team that can get what they want, when they want 1 down 3 more to go against the top 4 home teams in the league..

The final 18:22 only 3 guys from Hofstra scored

Undefeated at the dac, trask and td while praying Hofstra looses to some bottom feeder? Fat chance.

They have bucket makers. We don’t. Defense wasn’t bad but when you can hit tough shots and get some help from role players, it’s tough. One senior showed up. The other 4 did not. With Drexel beating Charleston, next Saturday is a do or die for us, if we want a double bye and top 4 seed

This game is an elimination game for the regular season. If we lose we are looking at best a 3 seed. Hofstra has an extremely easy schedule this year and at comically bad finish after us. Got to love the unbalanced schedule!!

BLounge, They are giving away bucket hats tonight. Still time to get up to Hempstead

Yup

Coach hired late in the game. from a d2 to a dormant program. It is what it is at this point

Huge game

We can and should run a bit more. Guards get the rebounds and hold it and go slow. There’s a few times it’s 4-4/4-3 and our ball handler stops around mid court and looks back at the bench

Strongly disagree. Zero confidence in pat getting us to the dance. He has never won multiple games in the tournament and only has 3 wins there ever. 3 in 3 days or 4 in 4 is a lot to happen. The pace is a blessing too. Because on the positive side, the other team gets less possessions too. This year that has inflated our defensive numbers. We are solid defensively but 64 points allowed on a low possession game is just that. It’s not like these guys have the weight of thr past on their shoulders in march like say wm. Where they have been so close but never got the job done. They are wound tight because they don’t/haven’t run great offense and when the pressure is on, we don’t have that go to player. Unfortunately you need to score to win too. hostra is huge!

Can we score? We are middle of The road in the caa which is not a high power offensive league. I’d take decent defense, a few rebounds and eat a few (3-4 minutes per half) from Coleman and beku

Right. Tough week!

I know it’s pretty meaningless in the scheme of things, but who do you think will win POTW (co) this week? Charles or cam?
