Re: 2023-24 Season

Can one of the old-timers on here (you know who you are) give me a brief synopsis of the roster and outlook for the season? Hope everyone is doing well and wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!

Re: The Massachusetts Collective - NIL initiative

Someone will always offer these kids more $. The whole thing is depressing. Count me out but I wish you luck.

Re: Ricky Harris: Post-UMass

He capped his Mullins Center career by hitting a game-winning three with 3.5 seconds left to send UMass to the A-10 Tournament as part of scoring game-high 28 points against Rhode Island on Senior Day. Funny story now but NOT funny at the time: Unfortunately, I learned my lesson the hard way that y...

Re: KAEO: Carl Pierre

Thank you Carl! It was great to see you represent the school well and develop as a player and a leader. I'm sure you will be successful at anything you set your mind to. It certainly has not been a typical career with all the turnover so your success and contributions are even more impressive in tha...

Re: AAU, Woodstock and Twitter Jerk Fest

I agree Joleon. 23 players have transferred out of UMass since McCall arrived. Now 8 players on the roster are from the same high school and their HS coach is the first assistant. I don't care what you say, that is not how you build a durable, competitive program. Let me know when UMass decides to d...

Re: Game 9, 2018-2019 Holy Cross, 12-4-18

Holloway is a defensive liability in man defense. I'd be fine with him playing sparingly. We need a dose of Randall West. Definitely miss Hines inside.

Re: What will we look like in 2018-2019?

Just took a look at the roster page with new photos and I gotta say, Samba Diallo jumped out to me. Kid looks like he's got a strong frame. I think we got a real steal and sleeper with this kid.
