The other day SLU was just the far superior team. It will be very interesting to see how/if Umass plays them differently this time around.

Holy - shitski....

55% from the floor
39.5% from 3
8 turnover to 20 assists

Joe's sucks, but those are pretty good stats against any D1 team.

Not thrilled with this matchup - Joe's has played much better the last couple weeks. This will come down to Defense and I am not overly confident about that. If Joe's shoots halfway decent from 3 (high 30's), we R fucked IMO. Umass is better playing one dimensional defense (as in stop one or the ot...

Very little to take away from that game actually. SLU is physically bigger and more experienced. Sometimes it is as simple as the other team is better. Losing by 18 or losing by 28 is still losing by a lot; and by a margin that coaching is not making up - to me that was last night. More to the point...

You are very optimistic. Not seeing a cover here nor will they get to the 145 total. SLU is too big - they will need their best shooting night of the year to hang with these guys I am afraid.

Ummmm we live in Massachusetts.

The Tre Mitchell to the NBA talk never ceases to amaze me. Best case scenario for him is he gets drafted in the 2nd round after his senior year. He's very skilled and very talented but he is no where near NBA ready body-wise or on the defensive end. They play defense in the NBA? Huh :shock:

You should stick to Marketing, your AD skills suck.

Lets just worry about him playing this season - shall we?

Great win but what a waste.... Covid is going to fuck over any chance they have outside of winning the conference tourney if allowed to even play in that.

Some short bald guy

For the record, I do not coach MBB at Winthrop.

Levity is dying here - thank you for bringing it back!!!!

Be interesting to see the top 25 link for the G5. From this limited sample see 2 Sunbelt, 2 MAC, 1 MWC, and 1 Indy. The old perception is that CUSA is better than the Sunbelt and the MAC. Seems like CUSA has been heading down hill since multiple raids, poor choices in replacements, and ultra bad me...

Discuss....

I am looking forward to seeing what they look like after two promising performances. URI losing to the Dukes last night takes a little shine of that win now.

Davidson should be a true test - or at least the truest test so far - of what Umass is this year.

Big Deli 2.0 (minus that one glorious Xavier game!)
