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!

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

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...

Re: Newsday Coverage or Lack Of

Could not find ONE WORD re: our game vs. Drexel last night. SHAMEFUL! 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. Why Wags? They've ignored us all ...

Re: MBB Game 28 Drexel, Feb. 22 (Thu), 7 PM

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...

Re: Newsday Coverage or Lack Of

Let’s be honest. Newsday does just a terrible job covering its hometown college basketball teams. St John’s basketball teams sucks, but I guess we have to have a daily story, anyway, on a boring team and it’s tortured, depressed millionaire coach. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk That's just the po...

Newsday Coverage or Lack Of

I wrote Roger Rubin an email, actually sent him two but this time he responded to me about the ridiculous amount of coverage St. John's has been getting vs. us or any other school on LI. This was his response: I, personally, don’t think it should be either/or. We should write about the Red Storm AND...

Re: Hofstra Lacrosse 2024

We win the game by two after being up by four early in the second half...good spirited games against an oppoent which came to play...Our goalie made some great saves down the stretch to keep it a one point lead before we nailed a final goal in the last few seconds.
We're now 3-1...not too shabby.

Re: MBB Game 27 Northeastern, Feb. 17 (Sat), 2 PM

Greatr win and terrific performance by Carlos but it makes me wonder how we blew so many other games either with horrendous starts or poor finishes. Clearly this team is talented enough to be at the top of this league...hopefully now they realize what they can be and grab it over the final four game...
