    Suspend the season & restart it on 3/1. By that time, we’re through the worst of the flu season and (hopefully) many of us will have been vaccinated. For this 1 year, have May/June madness. That still leaves plenty of time to start the 21-22 season on time in mid-late November of 2021

    Wishful thinking. Majority of americans won't be vaccinated probably until early May or so.


  2. Aww, the new season of Skerry ball starts out as expected. Let's keep the streak going! LOL. But seriously, the HOOS are a grade above but some of the issues other posters have stated have been going on for years. What happened to the savior Zane with only 6 pts? Not signed up for Flosports since it was crap last year...

    I just look at what's happening with MLS and even MLB.  MLS has far more resources and created this bubble and so far at least two teams have dropped out.  They have postponed several other games due to positive tests. The NBA also had a bunch of players drop out of the restart b/c of health concerns or positive tests.  The measuring stick right now is how the professional leagues are attempting this and if they are having so much difficulty pulling this off in what they believe is an ideal environment (this bubble), how on earth can anyone reasonably expect college athletics to go forward.

    I hate to say it but college sports are f***ed in 2020-2021.  

     

     

     

     

      

     

     

    Good point. The pros will somewhat provide guidance to whether any fall sports will play out in college. Once the NBA had shutdown, others followed suit. I do believe the NBA will finish the season and crown a champion. May be some adjustments but believe it will play out. Of course everything dependent on how the virus plays out, especially if things get worse in the fall as what is anticipated. Keep fingers crossed...

    You realize our funding for hoops is still at the bottom of the league, right? 

    You all continue to bring up Mason, ODU and VCU.  I went and looked at STATS to see the success of Jim Larranaga as a head coach.  Funny, he didn't make his first NCAA tournament until year 13 of his carrer.  He was able to build the program at Mason and turned them around to make them a powerhouse quickly.  Mason clearly funds hoops and athletics different than Towson.  For those of you who have been a part of the program or close to the program know that things have been done ass backwards for a long time.  I remember being on PKs staff and every other day he would say how F**ked up everything was from the facilities, donors, pregame meals, hotels, and everything else.  That stuff takes time, and the changing of ADs/Presidents doesn't make it go quicker.  

    PS needs to do better in the tournament, we all agree on that but there are so many other ancillary parts to make this thing work and unfortunately for all of us Towson hasn't put those pieces together for a long time. 

    Some of us been here just as long as you my friend and perhaps even longer through the doldrums that is TU basketball. 10 years is WAY more than a sufficient amount of time to see if a program is moving forward or not. Unfortunately we have remained stagnant and in some ways digressed in the Skerryball era. This is the metric that should be measured and not comparing it to a different era where the league was more competitive and the lack of resources was way more glaring. When results become predictable and things do not change it's time to seriously evaluate those at top. Sorry...
