Last night was not good and I am going to be honest I am having a little PTSD from last season now. There is nothing specific, it is more of that general feeling this team will be out-gunned a lot more often than not. I do think there is a top to bottom improvement of talent over last year, but I am...

I was a season ticket holder when the Mullins Center Opened. We were good, ranked number 1 in the country at times. Impossible to get tickets if you didn’t have one. Lot of fair weather fans in those days(I.e, John Kerry).Place was pure bedlam. The difference between then and now is we were GOOD ba...

I actually think it will be a mistake for UMass to join CUSA if Charlie Baker's plan goes through in some shape or form. Why? CUSA won't be 1-A. Neither will the MAC or Sun Belt. You do not need to have a football program to opt in so I feel like the Big East schools will opt in along with Gonzaga,...

The only was the current FBS Football / D1 Hoop set up survives is the NIL version of a salary cap and tightening up of transfer rules. The money disparity is will only continue to grow which exasperates player transfers even more. Football is bad enough, Basketball is going to be even more cutthroa...

Realignment is out of control. Send the P5 on their way and wish them well. Reorganize D1, come up with a revenue sharing arrangement. Break the teams up geographically with the top X from each region eligible for the playoffs. Give the athletes a portion of the revenue generated and let’s get back...

Don't remember the actual numbers, but isn't the current split pretty close to that like 77% Px and 22% G5 and 1% FCS. Steve you are talking about Playoff/Share money splits... yes that is pretty close to correct. The reality is that the P5 will dominate the revenue and the "new D1" wmmmf...

Umass is a 3 point favorite. I am not thrilled with that number, but the over under is 132.5 .... I am betting the under all day on that (and i will be!)

Statistically speaking UMass should win this game. Towson has lost to everyone and beaten no one so to speak. The only team they played that is comparable is South Dakota State who they lost to by 13 and only scored 48 in the process. Every other game was either over their weight class or a cupcake....

Umass was also nationally ranked.....

Another dagger to college football.

IV - He wasn't referring to the yelling... it was the physical stuff.

Guess it will have to be a New Years present. https://www.extrapointsmb.com/p/im-hearing-conference-usa-umass-caa Let’s talk about UMass It makes perfect sense for fan speculation to immediately turn to UMass. The Minutemen are a bus ride away from Delaware, share meaningful FCS football history, a...

Being a multi-purpose arena, I don't think they are going to remove any seats. This is correct. It is a little awkward because of Hockey to get people closer to the court. I love the size of the arena in general terms, especially when you have an attraction worth going to see. Nobody is going to co...
