Royal Tiger

Great fight to come back today, just short in a hostile environment. If can steal one of last four, that's another great season and top 6 seed! Give the boys and staff credit and great turnaround, no expectations this year after Watson went down. Remember where we were 20 years ago???

At what point are there more grandiose desires than 20-14 seasons, top 4 conference finishes, and semifinal exits? Year 20 or year 25? This year's team won't sniff achieve that success above, more like 16-17, 7th-9th seed and quarterfinals but at least we have that jan 6th uncw banner to hang, right guys? Sorry if this offends anyone

Here's an idea: resign

Give us your top 5 wins during the skerry era (13 years now)? Sad that at piss poor sdsu (south dakota not san diego) can fall in here: game 163 vs Delaware for regular season title, at mediocre oregon state team, mediocre temple team in secu opener, at vermont game in early skerry years, at uncw caa regular season champ year.

Putting this nicely, we completely fumbled all the good momentum that was built in the early 2010s over the past 10 years. Coastal Athletic Association will be back at 10 team in a couple years unless add any more crap like Morgan or NJIT: Hampton, NCAT, Campbell, Stony Brook, Drexel, Elon, Monmouth, Hofstra, Northeastern, and us. Can't expect anyone within our institution to react other than do nothing and be happy with whatever hand we're dealt.

When should we start to care about wins and losses? Towson athletics may be #1 in terms of most seasons that don't count/matter.

Lol mentioning playoffs and this team was hilarious. 3k for a home opener is abysmal. If it weren't for UD, we would probably sell 15k tickets all year, may get to 20k with the hens. Let that sink in. In the mid atlantic , outside of Happy Valley, which isn't even really mid atlantic, there is no appetite for college football let alone a below average fcs team. Even more so there has been no sense of urgency since T West has left by anyone involved with Towson University to change the below average status. Everyone involved has just been happy to get their paychecks and the limited fans are just happy we have uniforms running out there on Saturdays. Respect the tradition and the few of you that actually care, but in this day and age it's time to do the fiscally responsible thing.

Know Charles wouldn't be able to play P5 and loves Towson, but props to him for staying around for what is going to be a throwaway year that we won't count against Skerry's record. If this was professional sports, we'd be shopping him for some prospects to rebuild. 8-10 in CAA with a couple of local OOC wins is officially the ceiling in 2023-24.

Probably outplayed Charleston (11 or 12 seed) 90 of the 120 mins played them. Unfortunately the 30 minutes we lost, we lost big.

At least we had that February 25th win guys!

Please say he used a slur Dalton. May be our only way out. Heartbreaker tonight. Many long years ahead with nothing to show for it.

ChalkAA. Some of these games have been crazy uncompetitive

You play to win the tournament, not the game. IMHO tonight's win was a strong indication of the low basketball IQ this staff has. Oustide of those of you who hang a banner for 20 wins, nobody will remember this game in a week. Praise the fight, celebrate the win, 57 points will be lucky to lose by single digits next weekend. We were set up perfectly for a path of Drexel who has been horrid outside of the DAC (maybe even Monmouth or Hampton who they recently lost to both), shut down Hofstra on fresher legs who we've outplayed 7 of the last 8 halves, then go to battle with 30 win Charleston who may have had that false safety net belief judging by press clippings of "30 wins and make it to finals, we deserve to be in". Instead we have maybe finally fully healthy defending champs with a great guard and big of their own. Maybe they'll slip up, oh great then we have Coen and Co, sure he'll be an easy tournament matchup for us. If can get by quarters then have the battle with Charleston going for that magic number 30. If pull the shocker there after what is likely to be extremely physical, then less than 24 hours later have to shut down 2x POY and his Robin. That is last I will bring up tanking, as moot point now. Will be in DC each night we play next week rooting for the best. I don't think some of you realize the magnitude of next weekend. This conference is only adding more teams, as long as Kelsey and Charleston stay, they will be at the top. Uncw and hofstra also likely to stay strong right behind. Delaware cares, will see if W&M recommits to basketball. Monmouth and stony brook had extreme rebuilds this year, but are good programs that will be back. Who knows with portal but next year(s) looks like rebuild for us. It's not unrealistic to be skeptical if we can finish outside of the pig again under skerry. It's now or never Patrick.

Much easier to play earlier games next week and go hofstra in semis then Charleston in finals. Much different path brawling Charleston in semis then turning right around to try and stop Estrada and thomas. Looks like siddle sees that from the vegas line, will pat?

2022: Won last 7 in a row - first round of CAAT struggled vs 8 seed and lost by double digits vs Hens who we beat by 25 in a half days before 2021: Won last game before 2 week COVID shutdown - CAAT blown out by Elon 2020: Won last 3 including last game of year vs NE - CAAT blown out by NE 2019: Consistently bad all year - Lost PIG on JMU last second 3 2018: Pat had lost lockeroom here - finished 2-6 down stretch - blown out by W&M in 4-5 game 2017: Lost last 2 of regular season - best performance under Skerry in CAAT - blew out NE and then lost close one to Chealey, Riller, Brantley in their backyard 2016: Won 4 of last 6 - CAAT blown out by NE 2015: Consistently bad all year - Lost PIG in OT to Elon 2014: Won last 6 - CAAT won slopfest vs 7 seed JMU and lost to Tribe who they beat a week earlier This weekend is meaningless - Skerry teams playing good ball do not carry their momentum into tourney
