This is from an Email I got about 2 hours ago from Umass Men's Basketball. It is definitely a noon game. Noon Tip-Off | Men's Basketball vs. UMass Lowell | Know Before You Go I don't know if we can score enough against Lowell to beat them unless our defense is much better than it has been. They've p...

Hairston and a few others were at the hoops game last night. Hairston likes it here, too. The entire women's team was also at the game, sitting 3 rows in front of me. They saw the men's team give away a game in the last 2 minutes just as they have done 3 times this year. A sad year for BB. You got ...

2 quick things and then I'm done talking about this game. 1. I'm OK with Shahid. He's a good defender and rim protector. He needs to play 25 minutes a game with DHS out. 2. I'm inclined to think that Frank resigns at the end of the year. I don't think he is enjoying this team or this season one iota...

I've generally supported Frank but it was coaching malpractice not to put Shahid in the game when CCSU had the ball out of bounds up 2 with less than a minute to go. Everyone in the building knew that would they would get the ball into Momoh who had scored every time down the court (except when he ...

State of the program - in one word, BETTER!

Where is all of this money coming from? I'm happy to see it but wow, what a surprise. BTW, he was an assistant at Maine when they pushed us around in Foxborough in 2013. I was at that game and totally disgusted with how much better they were than us.

I must be nuts, but I will be there as usual. Both of their starting guards are 6'0. I assume they're quick as you don't see many slow 6-foot guards. Surprisingly, they are not the best 3-point shooters on the team.

I watched a recent game of Danny's. He reminds me a little of Curry, but obviously not as advanced. In the game I watched he did not shoot well from the outside but he's quick and can penetrate. Here's a link to his games. If it comes up with "upcoming", tab down to "recent". htt...

You know why it's taking so long? Nobody who is any good wants the job. Not hard to figure out why.

Until ASU, we don't play anyone who will give us problems with height. None of them start a player over 6'8 and they don't have anyone coming off the bench over 6'7 who plays any meaningful minutes. CCSU has 3 guys who hit the 3 at over 38%, Lowell hits the 3 at 38% as a team and Northeastern has a ...

Appalachian State fires coach Shawn Clark, source told @ActionNetworkHQ. Clark was 40-24 in 6 seasons w/4 bowl appearances

Anyone know anything about him and why he was fired with a pretty good record?

^ Matt does lead SMU in rebounds at 7.1. SMU plays 10 guys in double figure minutes so scoring is spread out. Matt is 7th in scoring at 7.9 in 24 minutes. He's only taken 39 shots in 7 games. Far cry from when the offense ran through Matt and Josh. Neither is NBA material, but I agree that both have...

Today starts a week with 3 opportunities to get home wins: NJIT today, CCSU Wednesday, and UMass Lowell on Saturday. After the next 2, we have UMass Boston and Northeastern at home. This is a chance for 5 in a row before we play ASU in Springfield. Frankly, we need to play better than we did today ...

CCSU beat Lowell 69-67. The game was at CCSU. Lowell was behind most of the game but took a 1 point lead with 4:33 to go. CCSU then ran off 6 straight points to put the game away. Haven't checked out CCSU but it looks like they have balanced scoring with 7 players averaging between 6 and 13 points. ...
