Tonight was also USF's first game away from home, maybe that was another factor.

USF is a 5.5 point dog tonight at Hofstra. FloHoops has the stream so I guess none of us will be watching

Is Matt still part of that era that could get a 5th year because of COVID? He was a freshman in that messed up 2020-21 season. I think that's still the season that's eligible for that program.

Will be interesting to see what he does after this season. He could easily ball overseas if he wanted.

Really not a fan of this large gap in the scheduling. At the "Power Hour" today with Frank/Jay/Nathan, someone asked about that. Frank said that with the mostly young team that he has, he likes that there's fewer games and more opportunities to practice, before the grind of the conference...

Just changing the name of this thread to reflect the ongoing nature of the topic. This is going to be a constant topic for the foreseeable future.

Just google and read "UMass football crosses the Rubicon" written in 2013. That succinctly explains it. Found that. https://www.wbur.org/cognoscenti/2013/12/05/college-football-peter-may I'll read it further over lunch. At 10 years old, is there any part of that piece's general premise th...

Way early on this, but getting it started after seeing what Albany did to Siena this weekend: beat them by 35, 86-51.

We beat Albany by 21, so yikes. On paper, that should be a breeze. Richmond beat them by 42.

Keep in mind that the Patriots are going to be irrelevant for years to come so the door is wide open to build a fan base for both BC and UMass So we should go bigger on UM football because the Patriots might struggle? That's not really a strategy to bank on. BC might benefit a little purely because...

I'm in the camp that says we shouldn't have left FCS in the first place. That is a ludicrous camp to be in.. The reason is that the NCAA is going to split up soon.. The 9 football conferences and Big East will be splitting from the rest very soon. There are very few schools outside of those confere...

Let me preface by saying I am a UConn fan so I really don't care what you guys do. However, I noticed you do not have a poll for your (Steve's) MAC discussion. I will mention I put a poll on the Boneyard regarding UConn's conference affiliation for football (independent vs. MAC/CUSA football-only)....

Another hit for WV this season: the NCAA has denied the appeal to get RaeQuan Battle a transfer waiver.

8 more days 'til we hit the court again. South Florida at 1 PM. NESN / NESN Watch / ESPN+, but get to Mullins if you can. The Bulls are returning the favor for our visit last season, when we won, 73-67 https://umasshoops.com/wiki/doku.php?id=game20221129_south_florida USF let Brian Gregory go, and b...

Wednesday's game time has moved UP from 7 PM to 2 PM. Maybe a little help for the players & staff to get home for Thanksgiving? Won't do anything to help attendance, will probably make it worse. TV and Stream are unaffected: NESN / NESN Watch / ESPN+ CCSU currently stands at 1-3. Their slate so ...
