It's Harvard on a holiday weekend. Let's not over think this!

Go UMass!

Go Umass! Finish strong.

I'd take Carmelo over anyone in a game of HORSE. I remember being at a shootaround before a game, I think at Rutgers, and he was standing at the top of the opposite key with his back to the far basket and launching one-handed 70-footers over his shoulder. Regularly hitting at least the backboard, i...

My apologies if this is posted elsewhere but I saw today that Chaney's threats made No. 2 on one list of worst coach rants. Great memory.

You mean like Stanford hiring Johnny Dawkins?

This is a conversation that was had on this board the last time Knight was unemployed and when the UMass basketball program was in full cardiac arrest.

And no offense to UMass, but they're not as talented as Pittsburgh."" So. That doesn't change the fact that 'Cuse lost twice to UMass this year, ...

I just got home from the Dome. I am still speechless and feel like I gave birth. That was so freakin' awesome. Thanks to the team for not giving up. You provided us with a memory that will not soon fade. Ed-thanks for emailing me about the game. Even though it was difficult to make it given my work ...

Funny. I had a similar thought.

Just got back from the game. What a great win.

As the guy in front of me noted, Forbes' 3 at the end of the game was reminiscent of Harper's 3 in the prior UMass win over 'Cuse.

Good times. Go UMass.
