Siena a 7.5 favorite today. 5-1 FF vs 2-5 Siena. That shows how hard it is to win on the road. The guys who set these lines don't like to lose money. OK. So, who you got? Good betting game. Siena 3-1 vs spread only loss coming at home not covering vs Cornell. FF 2-0 vs spread. Taking the points looks like the way to go. I'm hoping for the best of both worlds a Siena win but under 8 points. |

It's better than going to a game to rag on the coach the whole game. |

Bingo. Skippy wants to call me out when in fact he should be directing his disdain towards the head coach. The depth of your posts are impressive: JP is an idiot, EF sucks, UA gym is a dump. I can see why posters can't wait to hear your in depth analysis of the Fairfield game. With all due respect the 3 items above are facts. |

This board is almost as unreadable now as the PPC days.

So true as an outsider but an alumni who reads daily, but posts rarely, the sentiment of this board is sad. Not only is there very little support for the coach of the program which is sad, but the nonsense that is spewed against 18-22 year old young men is sad. Making the trip up with my boys for the game, win or lose I will continue to support my school! By the way recruits look at this board, I know factually one player who removed Siena from consideration because after reading this board he felt that our coach was not safe. The kid is being recruited by other MAAC and A-10 schools, and will be a great MAAC player if this is the level he settles at. I get that coaches are paid to win and subject to scrutiny, but what happens here often crosses the line from scrutiny to ridiculous! |

The depth of your posts are impressive: JP is an idiot, EF sucks, UA gym is a dump. I can see why posters can't wait to hear your in depth analysis of the Fairfield game. With all due respect the 3 items above are facts. Not sure why you included "With all due respect". There is nothing respectful in the post. Never been to Albany's court, so I can't comment on that reference. With respect to the other two............ Jimmy is far from being an "idiot"; a whole lot brighter, smarter, intelligent than you and many others give him credit for. Evan does not "suck", and I'm betting that you will have to eat those words some day. Easy to take shots at someone from the cheap seats, but maybe you've been in the college basketball arena yourself at some point, and have some frame of reference as a former player for saying that Evan or any other player "sucks". If so, would be interesting to know what your playing background is so we (I for sure) would have some idea of what level of expertise you bring to the discussion in making a statement like that. Maybe then we could have somewhat more respect (there's that word again) for your opinion. |

That reference in my post is a product of Tony's clever auto-correction. |

Thanks for saying it as well as you did. |

LOL. Any recruit that's makes a decision based solely on reading a message board with comments from a bunch of armchair QBs (present company included) is free to move on, he's probably not that bright in the first place. BTW HS coaches, Prep School & AAU coaches and handlers are already pretty well informed as to a college coaches reputation and have far more of an impact as to who a player should avoid, more so than a bunch of people post on this board.

As I often Say, Rene Descartes almost had it right. He said I think therefore I am but for so many people I complain therefore I am is more correct. If they are not complaining they feel like they are not alive. Thanks Dr. Longwood.
JP, I can't use Jimmy or it gets changed to So-So jimbo which is not my intent. I hope it has been changed Tony. You run a good board and it was cute at the time but please. Is our coach and will be our coach. Dissing him is dissing the program as a whole and given two 20 win seasons and two post season trips, even C level tourneys, is not grounds for dismissal at Duke or Indiana. Neither should be losing on the road at Kansas, GW and St. Bona. Just saying
