Re: MBB Game 30 @UNCW, Feb. 29 (Thu), 7 PM

No bigger regular season game for us than this one...looking back at what should have been. We should never have been is this position with all the CAA games we squandered...if we could have JUST ONE BACK... But now is the time to make up for it...we are playing our best basketball of the year and i...

Re: Newsday Coverage or Lack Of

The Newsday problem is simple...buy some advertising to promote our games and guess what? They will start covering us.

Totaly agree...I do hear some rumblings about us making an attempt...maybe we can give Fordham Tomasco and two more phantom players to be named later for them to stop blocking us.

Re: Umass LEAVING A10

Pretty major conference realignment news... Umass is leaving the A10 for the MAC in ALL sports for the '25-'26 season. Once again football rules all, this is obviously a big step down for that school for other sports, especially basketball. https://twitter.com/PeteThamel/status/1762198328673006013?...

Re: Hofstra Admin: Elon Attendance an Embarrassment

Thanks for the plug Polito!
Liked the money drop vs. Drexel...pretty cool!
We definity need to broaden the reach of the marketing and promotions.
If you're not an insider, you would have no clue about the games, promos etc.
Been saying that for years!

Right now ESPN only giving us a 29.1 percent chance of winning at UNCW.
Surprisingly they give us a 33.6 percent chance of beating Charleton.

Re: Hofstra Lacrosse 2024

We lose to another "powerhouse" program Marist yesterday afternoon. In all fairness,, their goalie did an outstanding job stopping numerous shots from point blank range. We were down 5-2 after the first quarter got back to tying the game at the start of the fourth when Marist, THREE MEN UP...

Re: Next Year's Team

Dubar is not done just yet but may be done here?? I would be very surprised if Dubar stays for next year given the current state of the college game. Maybe Speedy will offer him a good NIL package, at least for Hofstra, and keep him as the centerpiece of next year's team although highly unlikely.

Re: Newsday Coverage or Lack Of

It all works hand in hand. When Newsday covered us we had more fans and more interest. I did marketing for the program for a couple of years and we bought space in Newsday highlighting the upcoming games and running promotions...that was our best attendance year ever. We averaged more than 3500 per ...

Re: Newsday Coverage or Lack Of

Page A41 under the heading "IN BRIEF" there was a TINY 5 line article about our game. I'm surprised there wasn't a huge article about Pitino in the sports section. They're a waste of time and it has been like this for many years. Now that St John's has a coach that has a resume they're ge...

Someone from Newsday was covering the past several home games but I was surprised to see that no one from there was at the table last night. I'd imagine they'd be there tomorrow for Senior Night.

Definitely a big one for both. Take it easy on us, is all I can say. Especially since its nationally televised. Dan always enjoy reading your take on Drexel sports and the CAA overall...agree this will be a good tight game. Of course hoping the home team returns the favor in this one...enjoy the ri...
