Bay Area Tiger

Anybody start looking at flights and hotels yet??? Assuming no Dayton 🤞 Spokane Salt Lake City Omaha Indianapolis Pittsburgh Charlotte Memphis Brooklyn Despite based in San Francisco no way I want to go shithole Spokane or dry Salt Lake City. Remaining 6 sound good to me! March 21-24 3 months away! I’ll be wearing my yellow long sleeve Charles Thompson jersey. Lets make sure we get a group photo 😉

Capital One Arena is what 26 years old?! Times have so changed…. so much money to piss around. I will support the Towson players by buying their gear but I’m not handing over money to the University. Do we have a copy of the profit/loss report for Towson University for each fiscal year going back to 1993 or so?

My post was about college basketball in general. Not Towson. Hadn’t seen a score like that before.

Oak Hill Academy would beat Oak Hill.

Take away.. both players are gym rats! Love that.

He just reminds me so much of how Dwayne Wade played.

Hicks is a co-captain.. he will return eventually too. Let’s not forget about him! Keep it rolling Tigers.

That Montana-Furman game last night was a doozy. I expect “3” more close exciting games today.

Wait you don’t want players to eat crab?

Yeah we have discussed in the past creating a Big 5 like schedule for Baltimore. I forgot about Navy. When I think of Loyola I think about Alonzo’s Burgers and the goal post from the 58’ game. I miss Towson and Baltimore so much. What a special place to attend college.

PS in his last Spiro report wanted Loyola on the schedule to make it a true Charm City Classic. Maybe next season? No trophy. Winners get a crab dinner!

Last season against UMASS no freshman played. Keep in mind it was Game#2 on the schedule. I think the tournament we did this season will pay off so much more than last season when we played Fairfield/South Alabama/Mercer and went 2-1. If we hadn’t played the likes of Houston, Wake Forest & North Texas recently do we think we would have held on last night with Lowery (played some PG) fouled out and basically Dylan, CT & May breaking their press?!! We kill this team when they lose and I’m gonna praise the hell out of them today after a huge home win with a super small home crowd to support them despite the chicken sandwiches. It is us the Towson fanbase (what’s left from the bandwagon) our team, coaches and staff against the world the rest of the way. I have the chip on my shoulder. If not with us this season then you are the enemy. Charles Thompson is my guy and he’s gonna lead this group to a dance 🕺 🪩🏀🐯

If I said 75% you would have called me crazy. Ton of things to work as a team however shooting free throws can be done individually and on their own time as well. We just beat a solid UMASS team at home and played “4” freshman for a combined total of 82 minutes. Jan 4th CAA play begins. We can be a top 4 team in this conference!

117-183 for 63% Now we basically have 1 game a week until conference play starts January 4th. Yes I know we’ve had a history of poor foul shooting but knowing what we know after 9 games…. if we are gonna pull out some close wins in CAA play with how refs tend to call games currently we gotta be able to knock down more free throws. We’ve said in the past ad nausea that this is the one area of the game that can be easily improved if you put more emphasis and time to it. Shoot them free throws boys! 70% or bust!

Charles had zero turnovers and although he dribbles too much and was 5-10 from the free throw line looking back last night he, Dylan and May took care of the ball late in the game when it counted most. Dylan looked like Dwayne Wade going to the hoop on some of his drives. Will a PG makes us the champs down the line.. NO! But we get Tarke and Hicks back and you won’t see opposing teams dribble penetrate so easily against us. The sun don’t shine on the same dog’s ass every day but we haven’t seen a ray of light in a long long time. That was a game up 9 points under 3 minutes that we could have easily pissed away like season’s past and we didn’t. Maybe this win ignites a big run…. TBD!

Huge home win and so glad I watched. D-Will, Mr May & CT carried us late. Get Tarke & Hicks back in the mix! Why can’t we win this season? Hit up all the players and coaches on social media this week!!! 👏🏀🐯 Towson!!!!

Charles & Christian will step up tonight. Goh Tigers

The Towson Report… Credit to Frank Martin for coming in. Our AD past relationship obviously helped. Dixon would give up his first born before taking a home game. Well that answers that. We really need to shoot it on Wednesday to have a shot. CT & May are gonna bounce back and have big games for us. We aren’t allowed to have Chic-Fila here in San Francisco. Love their food and service. Lucky students.

Cracking up…. how bout a promotion where beers are free until the first person uses the bathroom. I want to say that was tried way back in the early 90’s at CVP if I remember correctly.

Excellent point I forgot about. Had the summer trip!

Never said you labeled him that. We are taking years+++ of frustration out on this current group of players because of decisions made they had nothing to do with. Embrace this group of players is all I’m asking. Only 8 games into a season.

I don’t doubt other boards probably scrutinize hard. These kids aren’t pros but with all the media coverage and stats available etc we examine every game with close eye. They aren’t perfect and gonna have some stinkers as they figure out how to play together this season. If we were expected to win yesterday then ok I guess rip into the team. Do we doubt any of these current players aren’t working hard? May has a solid freshman season and now we are calling him a Non D1 player. Ease up on the kid.

Yes in 1995 we didn’t have social media and fan message boards. It is all magnified now in 2023. Beat the hell out of PS who has been here for 13+ seasons. Ease up on players who’ve only been here a season+ is all I ask.

You make some valid points and obviously you continue to support this program. I just get frustrated that we are 8 games in and already mentioning that Tejada will be out the door. And yes May has struggled to score but I truly believe he’s gonna find his shot and get better. I didn’t give PS the extension and I mentioned a ways back how I thought PS did a great job getting us out of purgatory but it was time to pass on the program to the next coach for the next phase. He’s not going anywhere so I gotta suck it up and support the players who chose to play for us. These players aren’t so thick skinned like us older folks.
