If true SF yes. If you think its negative to say we lack athleticism then why do you keep saying it? did you not understand what I said? Williams is not going to say anything negative even if he thinks it. You posted implying that because he didn't say it it must not be true. That being said... addressing your latest defense of the lack of athleticism... the team has strengths and weaknesses. the biggest weakness I see currently is the lack of athleticism. The strengths I see are depth of playable talent, the team plays hard and as a team. The team isn't as talented as I would like to see it but it is great that there is little drop off from the starters to the bench. I am very interested to see how Patsos plays this to the benefit of the team. He has to find cohesive units that produce together and take advantage of strengths and hide each other's weaknesses as much as possible.

No ...saying the team lacks athleticism is an opinion that Gary Williams does not share with you. If he said it that would mean he believed it to be a weakness that would hinder our success...but not saying it means we have enough to win with. If the guys continue to work hard in practice and become a cohesive unit accepting their roles. Coach Williams did not leave out a need for athleticism to win because he didnt want to be a meanie lol

You are. Williams is not going to say ANYTHING negative no matter what he believes to be true while visiting his friend at his job. In other words... you don't know if Williams shares that opinion with me as I am damn sure that there was plenty of opinions about the team that Williams didn't share with the press.

You're right on that. I would hope that he would advise Jimmy on the team's strengths (and what they can do to use it to their advantage) and weaknesses and how to combat them. But I agree he's not going to acknowledge the question marks Siena has publicly.

You are assuming and putting your opinions in someone else's mouth. You cant do that here. Saying the team needs more athleticism to win games is not negative. Its an opinion. ..Williams say playing hard in practice and everyone buying into their role is what you need to beat more talented teams. I would put more athletic teams in that category and say Williams believes we have enough athleticism to win. So that's why he did not mention us lacking it...

3 things
1) That’s coach talk from Williams- what’s he gonna say you guys are screwed if you go to NCAA’s
2) I don’t think anyone is saying this team isn’t athletic enough to win games- obviously we will win and win plenty- maybe enough to win MAAC even
3)I think most of the long time Siena fans have a real good idea what kind of athleticism it takes to win up games against good opponents. We will be better this year than last , but were are not quite there yet- team has to keep improving via the recruiting trail

Tony - we don't need any 3 star recruits. We just need players to work with Dan Taylor and keep practicing

I believe the actual games will prove you wrong.
