Bay Area Tiger

We will avenge Elon’s 70-43 loss down in Columbia last season!!!

Maybe they add another game for the NorCal trip but not in state.. maybe with a Big Sky team like Northern Arizona or Weber State etc 🙏

UC Irvine lost to Utah in NIT. They return their backcourt and their German big. They beat USC early in the season. The Anteaters share the ball. Been a solid mid major for a decade now.

With very like NIL money it is extremely hard to land an impact big man to replace CT.

August 31st is approaching quickly. This is the most excited I’ve been for Towson football in a long time. Give me a player deserving of me buying his gear this season? I got Hunter sweatshirt last year.

I bet Scooter Alexander at age 51 can still shoot it.

As always excellent insights! Tarke didn’t enter a game until December 16th last season. Really looking forward to have him play from the start this season. And yes NIL 💰 is so vital. Do you think Raptors 2nd round draft pick Jonathan Mogbo picked San Francisco for its restaurants and diverse culture…. He got paid big time and they found a diamond in the rough. Now what’s crazy is their NIL supporters are even more happy he left because they have attracted even more talent via their 💰.

We are gonna take our lumps at the Center spot early in the season. I hope these young guys develop quicker than usual. So glad to hear about Hicks.. rooting for him to have a full healthy season. Why not play a second game while in the Bay Area??? UC Davis, San Jose State, Sacramento State, Pacific, USF, Santa Clara, Cal, Stanford etc…. one of those teams has to need a game!!!???

Bakersfield is actually D1 now. How does this compare to what we receive for scheduling a D2 school?

Off season has been positive for us diehard Tiger fans.. We have the Summer ProAm going on here in SF and although it is summer league ball I’ve gotten a chance to catch many current college players along with incoming freshman. Needless to say now more than ever do coaching staffs really have to do their homework in this social media hype times. Watched a soon to be UCSB Gaucho play last night and talk about overhyped. And1 bullshit! Then in the same game watched an under hyped Vermont player look so polished and played team ball. Really makes me appreciate what we have in guys like Tejada and company.

Nathan Chen most famous alum!? ⛸️

Did CT get on a Summer League Team to show off his skills for overseas?

In 2024 it amazes me what strength and conditioning programs have done to transform players across the country. There really is no offseason anymore. College & NBA we have the most fittest athletes than ever before.. now if we could just raise the basketball IQ!

Before the 2 hour drive to Lethbridge…. take the team to Stu Hart’s dungeon for some extra conditioning 😉🤼

Happy Fathers Day

He played at Tufts.. I can only imagine all them damn dogs barking etc…. He just wants quiet!

I like Hicks returning.. he was going to be a starter and a captain. I want to see him bounce back and have success. Love rooting for a kid who has done everything right but got bitten by the concussions. No one wants to play us back East? 2012 is laughing for sure. I’m calling Mark Madsen right now PS. Berkeley is close to Moraga. Awesome report as always Mat. Truly appreciated. Really excited to see what Tejada does as a Sophomore

I’m actually hoping they add another game here in the Bay Area with USF, Santa Clara or San Jose State 🙏

Actually this is a smart first game choice for us despite the 3,000 miles. McKeon Pavilion reminds me a lot of the old Towson Center… same set up really. Our new trio of bigs in Samb, Ndefo & Embeya get the duties of handling two of the better polished big men on the West Coast in Saxen who is 6’10” and Wessels 7’1” Nice first test!

I’m bringing a fresh loaf of sourdough bread from Boudin for Spiro 🥖😉

Without traffic or non commute time... 35 minutes! Will take me 90 minutes likely getting across Bay Bridge on a Monday evening.

My prayers have been answered. Thanks PS!

I don’t see it that way…. I think if he had took the job he would have LeBron and Bronny for 1-2 seasons together before LeBron retires and then he could rebuild the entire roster… not a bad deal. Ultimately this came down to money and the Lakers didn’t blow him away with an offer like many in the media were speculating.

Hurley staying is great for college basketball 👏
