Has anyone been able to crack the code of how to listen to the radio broadcast of the B101.5 feed of these games if you're out of town?

Re: '19 MA SF - Joe Pridgen (Holy Cross Transfer)
He's athletic and he's a scorer, but definitely not a shooter. I think he'd be a good addition, but he's not someone who will take a lot of threes. 3 years of eligibility is a plus. If he shoots it at close to 40%, I sure hope he will take a lot of threes. I'm no scout, but that video combined with...

Re: How would you rate Coach Cox for the 2019-2020 Season?
Beating PC, finishing Top 4 in the A-10 is a B at minimum. Being a consensus NCAA tourney pick would have been in the A range. Losing to Brown was embarrassing and not managing roster better in the middle of the season keeps me at the minimum grade of a B.

If Harris could actually, finally develop that outside shot and knock it down consistently, it would be a huge impact on the ability to play multiple bigs together at the same time. He's got to start to draw his defender out to him on the perimeter whenever he's out there. We've rarely been much of ...

It's almost like you have to recruit two tiers of players. 1) Starters who know they are going to be starters, and 2) Scrubs who know they are going to be lucky to even get in the game. Then everyone is happy.

Re: 2/15 | Saint Joe’s | 12:00PM (CBSSN)
That was maybe the worst stretch I’ve ever seen from Harris. I can excuse missed shots, but not running down the floor is inexcusable. He’s a step slow even when he does show some effort. Forget about it if he’s not. Doesn’t belong on the court.
