Jefe clearly compromised physically. If he was even 80% he'd be playing every minute of this one.

Cyril fighting. Fatts will put together a run.

I'm actually optimistic about the 2nd half. Call me stupid.

Dayton made 27-28 2pt shot attempts last night. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of anything like that.

Jeff's hot streak begins at 27:00 of the game video if you want a quick rewatch. Goosebumps.

Tyrese now averaging 8.5 rbs/gm in conference play. Great rebounding for his size, Stan Robinson-like.

I earned my first BLOCK yesterday at the hands of former Projo writer Jim Donaldson for having Surfri1972's back about Tiger Woods. I'm pretty excited about it, except I did enjoy his negative tweets about the Friars. Peace out Jim. Haha I read this and was curious about what the beef was, so I wen...

I wonder what is the "Goldilocks Zone" of P5 interest for this board to be satisfied. If a recruit doesn't have any P5 offers, we worry that he's not good enough and some of us would be disappointed that we couldn't do better. But, as soon as those P5 offers start to roll in, we immediatel...

Agree with the positive takes on Cyril's game DPS, but can we please avoid the use of the R-word on this forum.

sf2010

Sorry but when I see a 6'10 kid in high school that can handle the ball and get his own shots then I want to see that kid driving to the hoop and dunking on people's heads. I want to see them dominate kids 3-4-5-6 inches shorter than them. I don't want to see them taking glorified set shots against...

It is "two CENTS" people, not "two sense"

If I didn't get an English degree to correct folks in online forums, then what was it all about?

sf2010

If we can't make 3's then shoot them less...try working the ball a little more.....Fatts needs to see pine if he starts missing from the get go tonight. Let Dowtin run the show and we have a chance. Disagree. I think we should shoot more 3s, with more conviction. I think whatever shots we shoot, we...

Hopefully we don’t regret our decision to back away and this doesn’t become a case of throwing away the good for the perfect. Yes, hopefully.

They're smiling! We're screwed! (yes, this is a joke. no, you should not overreact to it.)

But what would we do with the practice facility in 5 years when our basketball program had been shut down?

I rate Dan’s opinion over Thorr. Thorr doesn’t have any history on spending increased funds on MBB. Dan felt they were at a competitive disadvantage without a practice facility, chartered flights and a larger salary pool for Ast Coaches. He was vocal about it and pushed for them every time he reneg...

Um....no. It’s $1.55 million not counting any of the NCAA Tournament money. NYG, why do you say no? Just don't see anything material happening anytime soon. Doesn't mean it won't eventually...but nowhere near as quickly as the rooting public would like. I'm sure that Thorr will use the money as bes...

Isn't Mekhi Long who we already signed and Tyrese and Tate pretty much the same player/position as Massoud ? Long is allegedly more of a defensive stopper, and Tyrese and Tate are supposed to have quite different offensive games. IIRC, Massoud is supposed to be an excellent shooter, and I think you...

Guys sit on the bench for one of two reasons- they’re good but blocked by better talent or they’re not very good. My worry would be this team’s bench guys (Thompson aside) are mostly the second, which is why I think the freshmen will ultimately determine how far the team goes. You forgot #3 Hurley ...

I will agree with Rhody83 on one thing though, not all 7'1" players are worth taking a shot on. But seriously, no harm in kicking the tires on any of them, right? Glad Naheem came to campus, hopefully he really enjoyed his time and hopefully he develops some basketball skills to go along with h...

Watching him last year you can see the potential he has but he definitely could have used another year at UD That's not how NBA teams see it. They can obviously "see the potential" better than we can, and I'm sure they would rather have him playing against tougher levels of competition in...

The A-10 needs to work toward something like this. It is hurting itself with no challenges or other arrangements with leagues. https://twitter.com/AlexHalsted/status/996110323710033920 I am sure it is not for lack of trying. The A10 is not in a very high-leverage spot in any negotiations like that....

Yeah, We're only competing against 20 other schools . What's not to like. Surprised he's not paring it down to a more manageable dozen schools. I mean, if you read the offers left-to-right and top-to-bottom we come first, so obviously we're in the lead. Penn State is closest to his heart, so gotta ...

After watching that video had to look up the abbreviation "MLI" - apparently he is from Mali!

Gonna be real interesting to see how his game translates to a higher level of competition. Not doubting him at all, but he doesn't have any real easy player comparisons.
