Munford leading the A10 in FT shooting then misses 2 today - tough shooting day for all of our guys today

horrible foul by Nik - come over the back like that makes it so obvious then he acts like he didn't do it

Which came right after Bigby got a pass through right to himi at the top of the key and he fumbled it away. We can't buy a rebound in this game on the offensive boards. Ugly game.

Canty stinks and he is killing us
Hard to watch

I like the elbow to Canty's gut by Hare - notthe greatest sprotsmanship but I like the toughness in Hare on that.
We are making Canty look like an All Conference player and he stinks.
Rebounding is #1 priority for next year

That was a bs runor. I can't be worried about whether Hurley leaves or not, one day he will leave. More important is what he does now while he is here. He needs to recruit strong, turn this team completely aroound next year and fulfill the expectations that we all have of him. We have to make this U...

agreed Rod, our big weakness this year is on the boards and Holton led the A10 in Offensive Rebounding as Freshman. Billy Baron had 9 rebounds last night for Canisius playing Point Guard. Both of these guys were strong. Baron an excellent rebounder for a guard and Holton dominant on the boards. We d...

Fordham just lost to Dayton (1-3) by 45 points. Dayton's first 3 games were losses to Butler, VCU and LaSalle - not exactly an easy way to start the A10 play against those 3 teams.

Much of our problem continues to be in the rebounding department. We lost a lot with the loss of Holton who was 3rd in the A10 in Rebounding and led the A10 in Offensive Rebounding as a Freshman - nobody has stepped in to come close to filling that void. Billy also was strong and grabbed his share o...

Charlotte moves its record to 12-2 with an OT victory over UNC-Asheville, 71-63.

There should be an equal number of people on each side of the 20 point spread. Just as much money (not necessarily people) is above 20 points as is below 20 points.

Catholic 7 not very impressive performance in the 2011-2012 Big East Basketball Season.

Butler with a 2 point lead, Indiana with the ball with 23 seconds to go, would be a great win for the A10. Has been a strong day for the A10 so far today.

ramster

Well, as usual a team allows the opponent to take a 3 with 5 seconds on the clock to tie the game. If Butler fouls, then Indiana goes to the line for 2, has to make the first, miss the 2nd on purpose, hope for a rebound and make the two. Or allow a 21 foot jumper for 3 - and Indiana hits it.

That would be a Jim Baron move.

I believe that Dan Hurley is making his decisions to win games, not based on what Class level they are in. Brooks is not playing the same as he did in 2011-2012
