Re: Game 26. 2019-20: Saint Louis (2/18)
Good win! Confidence builder. Walker should be on the floor for 30. His ability to create and make shots is good but his ability to play D and defend he hoop is huge. If Walker shoots less threes, drives more and keeps up D intensity he will be in UMass HOF! He is unstoppable off the dribble and sho...

Re: Game 24, 2019-20: George Mason (2/9)
Carl needs to drive and shoot or drive and dish a hell of a lot more. He needs a complete game going forward and he doesn’t have one now. Unless he plays a more multifaceted game I don’t think he will/should even start next year. Really seems like a quick point guard and a shot blocker would take th...

Re: KAEO: Carl Pierre
It’s a visual perceptual difference. The background is different everywhere and players are used to putting up zillions of shots on their home courts. The slight variations can affect depth especially. By the way I hate that teams have practice facilities instead of using their game courts.

Re: Tony Bergeron
It only matters to me that the kids play really hard the entire game and that is on the head coach. Period. They need to learn that unless they play with toughness and all out effort they will never reach their potential. That’s on McCall because he sets the standards for the players. Last night was...

Re: 2019-20 season
I will never forget Bruiser and Bayno ”talking” with Mike Williams’ parents outside a bar at the Monarch building after a game in Springfield. It was after one of Mike’s first games (might have been the first) and his father was pissed off about Mike’s lack of playing time. He held Bru and Bayno the...

Unless MM figures it out really soon he will be lucky to be leaving for an assistant job at Rollins College.

I would love to have Djery as a son but I’d cut him from my team.

Wish he had a chance to play in the NCAA games his senior year. Would have helped tremendously!

Re: Game 17, 2019-20: at St Bonaventure (Rochester, 1/15)
And here is another thing. Without Bergeron we might not have Tre and T.J. But what really concerns me in addition to the style of play (soft, crappy D, liability press and no rebounding desire or commitment) is that McCall has been implying then outwardly griping that the attitude of the previous p...

Re: Game 17, 2019-20: at St Bonaventure (Rochester, 1/15)
Nothing matters unless UMass learns to: 1. Play half court defense and lose the “press” 2. Rebound. 3. Friggin rebound. Hard to watch. I have lost all faith in McCall. I don’t care how we are young or Weeks is hurt as excuses. I have coached hoop for 20 years and McCall doesn’t know how to get his g...

Re: KAEO: Sy Chatman
I know Sy has some athletic ability but I think his lose is a big deal in the future. He is not strong enough to play inside and has trouble using what strength he does have to play physical. I know we can do much better with a tougher, more physical guy in the future.

Re: Game 10, 2019-20: at Harvard (12/7)
Coaches need to teach these kids some defense and make them understand that if they don’t play very physical they are going to get stomped.

Re: Game 9, 2019-20: South Carolina (12/4)
First of all there have been D1 teams that pressed after each score but those have been far and few between. The teams that were successful had some combination of outstanding athletes( long and fast and able to anticipate and read) and/or their style of trapping was extremely physical and aggressiv...
