Re: Games of Interest - 2023-2024 MBB

I’m confused about why PC fans are coming to our message board today. It’s a massive day for their program as they may or may not make the tournament, and you want to come here to talk shit about Archie? Then again, most of their fanbase is like this, so I’m not surprised. Because Providence fans s...

So happy for Bashir Mason. He won three regular season conference championships at Wagner after staying and taking over for Dan but never made the tournament. This season, he wins the conference tournament at Saint Peter’s, and they’re going dancing.

Re: Who is Archie Miller?

Archie is a smart basketball guy and a competitor. He knows this has to work if he wants to stay coaching in the game, which I assume he does because that’s been his whole life. The longer the struggles at URI continue, the farther away his Dayton success seems and the more his Indiana years will be...
