umass has plenty of question marks- but they are playing home, and make no mistake about it, UMASS recruits from a different pond than Siena right now. They will be bigger stronger faster more athletic than Siena at just about every position on floor. Siena can beat them, but it will be a mild upset if we do. I expect Siena’s lack of athleticism will affect us most in our “up” games. Saints will have to shoot the ball well and take care of ball. If we do beat Umass I expect Saints to run off a good amount of wins vs Non conf schedule—Since on paper Umass will be our strongest non conf opponent

That's pretty bold. I didn't know anyone could be more optimistic than me. It's a good sign that you think this.

UMass will be a double digit favorite. Its a good test and a good time to play them. Siena has everyone coming back and won their last game they are tied for the longest winning streak in the nation.

Siena's currently on a 1 game winning streak. There's at least 3 teams with longer winning streaks. Can you explain your last sentence? I'm not following.

Ok they our a team that didn't lose their last game and has everyone back. Win the game. You're such a nudge. I don't get guys like you....... oh I forgot the cbi is 2 out of 3 not winner take all.

Nudge? No, I'm simply not a mind reader. I didn't 't know what you meant to type. I could only go by what you did type and I wasn't able to follow your train of thought. Last time you referenced that the MAAC & some other conference (NEC?) only gets guys drafted by NBA once every 25 yrs, you got mad at me when I provided 4. (Three from one MAAC team in the 90s & one ECAC NAC team). Again , I'm just responding to your comments that don't make any sense. If your point was to say that no NBA player if significance ... , then say that so we don 't have to read your mind.

Any word is this game will be televised?! ESPN-affiliated stations? CBS Sports Network? NBC Sports Network?

Who cares if it is televised. It is just an hour from Albany. Get off your butt, drive a short distance and go to the game and support our Saints. Just think, last year you had to drive to the MACC tourney, now it will be in Albany.

It'd be cool to start the season off with two busses going.

Cady Lalanne is on 2nd team. They just forgot that he's on Umass and not Rhode Island. That's a pretty unintimidating 3rd team.

UMASS traded Lalanne to RI for a rack of basketballs and a JuCo transfer to be named later. Yup, definitely an error there. I guess if Rhode Island was really projected to have three all A-10 guys on their roster, they wouldn't have been picked 6th pre-season.
