Re: MBB Game 09 @Saint Louis, Dec 9 (Sat), 3 PM EST

(Thanks for the scoop) But for goodness sake... that's VERY frustrating to hear. Certainly wish him a full speedy recover, I'm sure he is disappointed. The yearly trend of guys brought in that can't play is getting old. This team needs help. When are we going to hear about Parnell??? Does Plotnikov ...

Re: Hofstra Wrestling Hosts No. 6 Ohio State This Sunday, Nov. 19, 4 PM

I think this is fantastic, heckuva schedule! Fully agree, ALWAYS schedule the best you can. Never shy away from the top dogs, especially in this sport where HU is able to get them. A lot of good comes from these, including recruiting boost as kids want to face the big names, and most importantly MON...

Re: MBB Game 09 @Saint Louis, Dec 9 (Sat), 3 PM EST

Really don't like that SLU blew another game losing to Drake before playing us. They are going to be HUNGRY to show up and right their ship at home. They are not a very good squad right now, do not be fooled by their pedigree or A10 affiliation, they are super inconsistent and not yet a cohesive tea...

Re: MBB Game 08 @Iona, Dec 6 (Wed), 7 PM

Not great to see them pay so poorly, but great to see them win a tough road game w/out Thomas and Dubar on their game. Also shut down their top guy. Considering it's been 15 years, which is pretty shocking, I'll take it and run. Much to clean up, still a work in progress. But again staff is working ...

Time to even up this series - HU staying internally focused and on a mission. A nice local rivalry road W on the menu tonight.

You all are going into a true hornets nest - very very few...

Re: Mens basketball 2023-24

I take nothing away from the wins, I pump ours up anytime they happen, so it's def great for those programs and the CAA - just a hunch, but it feels like this is the most "name upsets" by this league in an OOC - excited to see HU take their shots in the big ones they have coming up! Still,...

Ah, would be amazing, who wouldn't go nuts for the Big East - n e v e r happening lol - beyond a pipe dream, that's not even in the .01% chance, it's an absolute 0.

NIL and College Athletics Future - Key Read Inside

For all of you truly interested in where things are and where they might be going, this article is for you. There are BIG changes (yep, even more than have already occurred) coming in the next 2 years. Potentially even legally / Congress driven. And if you aren't in the game, you will be out of it. ...

https://www.roanoke.edu/news/maroon_football_campaign I know, I know, it's not apples to apples - this is D3. But it's a REINSTATE just like HU, and don't dare tell me that a small private D3 in my tiny hometown area in southwestern VA can raise the 7 figure funds to do it, and this great Universit...

Re: MBB Game 07 South Florida, Nov 30 (Thu), 7 PM

Not much more to add a bit after the fact, but was at the game with HUSID (great time), and this was a total domination. I don't care how good or bad USF is, this was very refreshing to see. The keys here were HU started fast and aggressive, and STAYED that way no matter the score - they did NOT let...

Met Coach Nuttall at the hoops game the other night (thanks HUSID!), and the guy is awesome - just like his team, super polite appreciative and respectful. Class act. He and his team were honored at halftime, and as I've said, they are EASY to root for. Great kids, staff, and program. Had a cool bri...

I mean, yes, HU should take every game seriously. I don't think because Iona beat Fairfield that means some special attention is warranted lol. Kinda like saying hey Iona beat another D1 team, HU should be really careful! :P I know that's not really what was meant Jojo, just found it funny lol That ...

Awesome W's for both, they should be excited and proud - and yep even I agree good for the league overall. BUT make no mistake, the league IS STILL trash. And has been. And the data shows it. These games do not prove otherwise. They're one-offs. As I said last year, the CAA has a few really strong i...

Re: Mens basketball 2023-24

I would LOVE to go to this game - just to see Cameron Indoor would be a thrill.

And yes they do camp out - I've been to the campus during hoops season and it's a legit tent city of college kids out there! Pretty awesome, gotta love college sports!
