Re: Point Spread Official Thread

i see line opened Umass -1 but I bet it swings to Davidson -1. Im not a huge fan of Kenpom because his formula uses final scores where he should have some sort of diminishing returns built into his equation. A Lot of these games get out of hand in the last few minutes and sometimes a team down 15 cu...

Re: 2022-23 Season

It kind of sucks that the A10 is not highly regarded at all. It will be a shame if UMass and Rhody meet in the A10 final and both are not for sure in the dance..

Re: 2023 Recruiting

I kind of expect that neither Fernandes or Weeks will be back. If I were Weeks I would look at Harvard, Brown, or Yale.. get the Masters degree from an Ivy. I think the remaining 8 guys will stay which leaves room for one transfer who should be a productive Big.

Re: Point Spread Official Thread

I think Davidson -1.5 on Sat so take Umass. Next weds it will be Fordham by 4.5 to 5.. take Fordham. I think we break the ice next Sat at Lasalle where we will be 1-2 pt underdog and will come away with win.

Re: Expectations for 2022-23 Season

After last nights tough loss mostly due to injury I think it is safe to say the season will end up being disappointing, at least for me. The Noah injury was an absolute killer. I guess let's just root for 4-0 at home and maybe steal one on the road to finish 9-9 in league. I suspect we are headed fo...

Re: Game 22, 2022-23: at George Mason (2/1)

The icing on the cake was horrific officiating..here are the top three in no particular order 1. Oduro completing a full circle while holding the ball.. obvious travel 2. Dinkins i think (their small guard) driving on fast break 1 vs 3 jumps into one of our guys and gets the and 1. foul should have ...

Re: Point Spread Official Thread

this probably means no Noah again? Based on our history this year in league road games this line is accurate, but i think somehow we prevail tonight. Im taking the pts albeit need to go through my buddy who is set up in CT.

Re: Jack Leaman Legacy

Back in late 80s, I actually had him as a PE teacher for a golf class and I still remember a few tips he gave me.. One of the greats in Western Mass sports history!

Re: Game 21, 2022-23: Duquesne (1/28)

People will start coming back and i suspect there will be larger crowds at the last 4 games, especially next Sat and vs Dayton. I think the team being marginal to bad along with covid hurt attendance. I know we will never see another Cal era with the place banged out every game, but I do think we wi...

Re: Point Spread Official Thread

Even without Cross and Fernandes, which i suspect is the case, I think we still win this one.. 82-77
