yews SaintsFan you are right. Long is a good enough player where if he was surrounded by other players with speed and athleticism he would be a much better contributor.
Difference between this year and last obviously Besping and Silas. Mid season injuries to Poole and Long. Same coach's? Obviously they want to win. Game tonight some of the kids were hustling others not so much. Question for the herd here is it the coach's, kids, injuries or a culmination there of.

To Lavon's defense, tough assignments tonight. Though 2 of the fouls were frustration fouls. Kid will have hos epiphany, wish it was now but hopefully before next season. Game was not on him. You got all this from the radio? PPC and yourself would be welcomed subtractions from the board. Only 2 more games!

Anyone worried about losing Poole and Hymes needs to have a mental evaluation, they are losers and dont know how to win. I dont want to hear this 1000 point shit, who cares about individual accomplishments when the team does not win? this team is better with out them and adding more hard nosed athletic players. Dont get me started on Long, he is not a 3 and needs to stop fouling, the coaching staff keeps telling him and coaching him but he does not or cannot make the adjustment. Its not only the players the coaching staff screwed us fans by taking a year off and recruiting 2 role players and not filling our needs of athleticism, speed and overall basketball IQ. I am a 20 year season ticket holder and fan, so I think I can say what I want. Now all of you can rip this post apart but wow this team needs improvement in all categories. Poole. Hymes. and could you add Long?

Jimmy's post game comment - preaching about fouling for 19 months and its not working - Hello!!!! Promised yet another starting lineup on Sunday! Question - could Lavon find a way to foul out if he DIDN'T play? Your BS is getting VERY old ! No, the BS is all Jimmy's. I simply asked a "tongue in cheek" question. Your reading comprehension skills are similar to your use of punctuation. Go back to videos, it's safer for you.

I can see no competitive drive anymore .... Mentally the team finished the season 4 or 5 games ago ... Appears they are only going through the motions hoping to put this season to bed early and that it will become a distant memory

Appears they are only going through the motions hoping to put this season to bed early and that it will become a distant memory Sitting behind them last night, I felt the same way. They look exhausted (hell, who wouldn't be from all of that running in and out with the substitutions) and frustrated. The last time I saw this demeanor was two years ago in Springfield during the tournament. Some look like they would rather be anywhere, doing anything else. UGH! On a side note, nice of the MAAC on Thursday to have a 'flash sale' on all session tournament passes. People were able to get seats in lower bowl sections for all games @ 55.00. Another slap in the face to the die hard fans in this league.

The morning sports report on Channel 6 said the team bus was involved in a minor accident on the way to the game. Glad no one was hurt and it didn't appear like it had any impact (no pun intended) on the kids as they came out strong, at least for a while.

Everyone talks about slow foot speed and lack of athleticism on defense being our problem. What about offense. I would imagine that someone that is recruited to a respected mid major program would be able to put put the ball into the basket. If I remember correctly that was even a requirement in high school. It has been quite a few games since the loss of Bisping and Cole. Our offense looks like it is the first time they have played together. There is no crispness with the passing g...there is no pent rate and kick out and do there nothing that resembles a well coached team. I realize that we have lost people and there are injuries but that does not justify the cluster_ _ _ _ We have for an offense. That is all on the head coach,

I believe they were 160.00 prior to Thursday, when on the MAAC website, they announced a 'Throwback Thursday" sale and reduced them to 55.00

and you are in the lower bowl, right? I saw that Friday the price went back up but there are plenty of seats in the sections 1-2 off center court which is 105 or 120 depending on what side you like to view from
