Just posting this here as it relates to Fran O'Leary. If you've never heard Fran speak, it's worth the effort. He's from Dublin, has that Irish wit and a lot of Irish expressions. I think he came to the states in 1985.
At the sports luncheon yesterday he talked about his background and a lot of soccer stuff and how he didn't understand American football when he got here. Here are 2 of his best quips:

I was watching an NFL game and the team had 4th down and 4 inches. They did a QB sneak, made the 4 inches and everyone went wild. I thought to myself, what kind of game is this when you get this excited about advancing 4 inches.
He commented that those at the luncheon were blessed to be eating at the #1 campus dining in the country. One of the entrees had a bunch of broccoli and George hates broccoli. He said, even the #1 dining can't make broccoli taste good. Jesus couldn't even make broccoli taste good.

UMass had its first 10+ win season since 2017. They finished the regular season ranked #20 in the country.
They're the 3rd seed in the A-10 tournament and will host St. Louis Saturday at 1 pm at Rudd Field. The game will stream on the +!

#6 St. Louis upset #3 UMass in a shoot out after 0-0 tie in regulation and two 10-minute OTs to advance to the A-10 semis. St.Louis scored on each of its first three shots while UMass went 0-3.
An at large berth in the NCAA’s is still a possibility.

UMass is in the NCAAs for the first time since 2020.
They host Evansville at Rudd Field in round 1 on Thursday at 1 pm. I’m guessing it’ll be on the +
Winner takes on #6 Penn Sunday at 5 pm.
