Re: Hofstra rebranding

I like it compared to the shield. I never understood why HU selected a shield as a representation of the University. The new logo does keep the Dutch heritage of the founding Hofstra family. It also is a much cleaner looking representation. The Blue & Gold really pops out, which is just what you...

Re: Mens lax 2025

Just when you think this team has shown something, they have a poor start versus Fairfield last week to drop that game. They follow that awful start with an even worse one this afternoon. Team was out of this game after the first few minutes.

Re: 2025-26 MBB

With Colin Curtain leaving HU Basketball for LaSalle, will HU basketball add a General Manager position? Iona has just added the position along with their new head coach. Maybe this is the new organization of a basketball coaching staff in the NIL era.

Re: NCAAT Conference Playoffs

Just wanted to go to an old HU remembrance as told to me by my Dad: During an ESPN Bracket Buster at HU vs Siena in about 2006, then Siena Coach Fran McCafferty and his wife in the stands were both thrown out for arguing a call. I don't think he would be interested in a reunion at HU. That must have...

Re: CAA MBB Tournament 2024-25 - Early Outlook

I wasn't sure what thread to put this information on, but NC State just fired Kevin Keats as head coach. Keats was at UNCW from 2014 to 2017. I guess the college coaching carousel has just started. I wouldn't feel so bad for Coach Keats as he still has seven million dollars coming on his contract.

Re: MBB Game 33 Sat, March 8 vs Monmouth 8:30 PM -- Second Round

Poor play choice at the end shot, and poor choice of which player takes the last shot. Zero points in the approximately last 2 minutes. MU shoots 24 foul shots to 9 for HU. It was a poor season in so many ways. As I have written before, what happened to the team between the Norfolk State and Temple ...

Re: MBB Game 27 Sat, Feb 15 @Hampton 2 PM

I recently saw an article in the NY Times that mentioned that Petino at St.John's was nor recruiting any high school players for 2025-2026. He was going to get NIL transfers to fill out the roster. It is the idea that a known 21 year old players can compete much better than an 18 year old just out o...

Re: MBB Game 29 Sat, Feb 22 @Delaware 4 PM

It would be a very good idea for HU and UDel to schedule each other in the out of conference part of the 2025-26 schedule. A long played series started in the 1950's should be continued. How about a series of games at the Coliseum, Barclays, or UBS with St.John's- Fordham, Stony Brook- U Albany, and...

Re: MBB Game 25 Sat, Feb 8 vs Stony Brook 4 PM

I agree with HUSID74. Not having a true third option that is a scoring threat on offense changed the entire game plan. For whatever reasons, whether physical, mental, or family, his entire game has changed. I believe this has affected the dynamics of the entire team and probably occurred, as we have...

As my Dad has said since yesterday, "You are what your record says you are." Bill Parcells had it right. This is what the HU team is right now. Dad also quoted ex-Knick Michael Ray Richardson, "The Ship be sinking!" Any other quotes that fit?

Mickey75, Record changes from 8-3 (really 6-3 without the D-3 games) to 4-10. Difficult to figure out all the exact causes, but something must have happened. It cannot all be the poor play and difficulties of JS.
