Re: Search to replace Tom Parrotta

Replacement certainly has to fill coaching the bigs and has to be a strong recruiter as well. Peques would be incredible, but not happening. We aren't getting a P4 or a top level high end basketball program assistant to come here to be just a mid major assistant and have Speedy in front of them for ...

Re: Men's Lacrosse 2026

What would be great is if HU actually MADE a quarterfinal for once considering they've been hosting and promoting other programs for umpteen years. Pretty sad we haven't been able to sniff it. It's an awesome event, and one that HU should definitely keep hosting, but man make it once in awhile - it'...

Re: Suggestion for New meet ups

Man, this really stinks, spoke with Stu, I am traveling next week Tue - Sat - can't get out of it, gotta get the work done and make the $ lol. I could do the last 2 weeks of May before another week long trip to start June. But if this is the best time, then absolutely make it happen! Very happy to s...

Re: Re: Hofstra softball 2026

This is all awesome to see, and is at least a strong indication we are getting back to the level HU softball should be at. Great to see the plethora of awards, well-deserved, and really gives a foundation to build on, esp if this group returns intact! Now, as Stu noted, there is some context here to...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Staff putting in wooorrrkkkk boy, love it - hahaha trading TP for SW, pretty funny - landing a center after losing the post-coach is pretty wild, and to the same school no less This is another athletic 7 footer on the roster who's physical, a rebounder, and checks in at a solid 230 (exactly what I w...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Few things: Hate what is happening to college sports. The level of pure unashamed greed is at an outrageous shameful level. The expansion is completely stupid and fully unnecessary. Watching a bunch of under .500 P4's will be cringe-worthy. College sports is and has been racing down a very slippery ...

Heckuva a way to finish out the regular season - snagging that #1 seed is a big boost for NCAAT chances - after a rough start and some questionable patches, this team has a chance to make it a truly special year and this program...

Re: Re: Hofstra softball 2026

Ah, that stinks - great to sweep SBU, that really matters more for this season - for the OOC we just don't have the roster this year to push for anything beyond going all out to win the CAA - it's clear we need to level up the talent in the offseason - this has been a nice year 1, but the standard i...

Wow, this staff is on FIRE - always said I wanted to see what Speedy & Co could do with an NCAAT under their belts, this is quick work - and they're bringing in relative quality on top of the speed I LOVE this PG get - kid can play - assist machine - looks like PG1 to me - pretty much what I sai...

Re: 2026 Transfer Portal

Man I would take Biggie back in a NY minute - that guy is unique and going to be hard to replace. Wouldn't say no to Silas either of course, 'unhung hero' as mentioned throughout the season. But I'm pretty doubtful that comes to pass, even with any eligibility changes. Who knows though... Oh, also, ...

As for our transfers out, I love the TT fit for Cruz - excellent landing spot for him, gives me the Estrada feel, and I hope he leads them to a major NCAAT run next year For Preston, ...
