Re: 2024-25 Season

Today's game at Providence was a 32 minute game, two 16 minute halves.

Providence was down five key players who will be starters or certainly in their rotation. Jayden Pierre (likely starter), Christ Essandoko (likely starter, though Oswin looked awesome for PC today), Rich Barron (role player ...

Re: Game 11, 2022-23: North Texas (Springfield, 12/17)

According to KenPom.com today (12/13/22), UMass is an underdog in 8 of their remaining games (including 3 of their next 4 with Dartmouth being the exception).

Re: Tony Bergeron


That account - @CoachingChanges - has had it out for Bamford since the DK firing (like a lot of people). The slammed McCall when all of the assistants were let go this past offseason and now they're back at it essentially copying and pasting from a Dayton message board. At least when I shared it I ...

Throw back gear

Hey, all. I know there has always been talk about the lack of great UMass basketball gear available for sale, but earlier today on Twitter I saw that @19nine_threads just released a new throw back UMass t-shirt and 1996 game shorts. Very cool stuff from a fun era of UMass Basketball. Memories and ...

Re: Game 26, 2018-19: at George Washington (2/20)

Cost of attendance (COA) is something each college and university must publish for financial aid reasons. The total number each college/university publishes serves as the cap on the amount of financial aid a student is eligible for during an academic year. COA actually existed long, long before NCAA ...

If you search for the YouTube channel "BT UMassGames" you should find it. Only one game is published so far, the 1991 Great ...
