Re: 2023-24 Schedule (top post is current)

I might be in the (admittedly selfish) minority here, but I for one would love to have a road game each season in the Boston area. Rotate between games at Harvard, BU, Northeastern, BC if we can get more home and homes with them. There are several of alums in the Boston area, including those of us o...

Re: The Men's Basketball Transfer Carousel 2023-24

That’s going to be very interesting for sure , Kim seems like a nice guy but he’s with the rival now so I’m hoping he pulls a D Cox I really couldn't care less what Kim English does other than one game a year.

Re: 2023-24 Schedule (top post is current)

don't love it but it is what it is. I do like playing UMass twice every year. Other than that....we'd want Dayton/VCU and either SLU or SBU most years. But I do love what some other conferences do even if it's a logistical nightmare. go through the schedule once then have the top NET teams play each...

As maligned as Carey is by some on here, I am flummoxed that he hasn't found a spot. He's good enough to be a significant contributor on many rosters, including our own. Maybe he's simply done and if that's his choice, I can certainly respect that.
