Yup, they won home games against Stony Brook, Penn St and Illinois St as well as 2 of 3 versus Fresno St. Was it a national championship, no. Was it a significant achievement for a team that most (including you) felt would win 5 of fewer games that year, absolutely. But, I get it, that doesn't fit the narrative. Penn State 15-17 overall 6-12 in the big ten that year. lost to 16-14 Bucknell RPI 115 (heavily inflated thanks to the Big 10 schedule) Fresno State ... yet another team that had a sub .500 record pre-CBI at 15-16 Illinois State... .500 pre CBI at 15-15 we all like seeing the names. But I would hope most are savvy enough out here to see that A) these teams were big time in name only and B) when the CBI is your only invite... especially as a big name school... it says a LOT about the "quality" of your season. It is what it is... a quirky tournament for mediocre teams. it was a good confidence builder (or should i say... SHOULD HAVE BEEN) for a rebuilding program. It was a National Championship for a young team with 2 all rookie players. I admit it went downhill after that. I am happy for the players that will stay and the recruits coming in the future. Siena is a place that is set up for student athletes to have success on and off the playing field. Now that Patsos is gone things can move forward in a positive direction.

I heard a mon whose kid got a $220K education for free was throwing him under the bus Mothers have nothing to do with the coaching nor administration of a program. Scholarships are not free either. You cant work when you are on scholarship. The scholarship is for participation in your sport. I get that you know nothing about this process, hater.....I was a scholarship athlete at Iowa. 4 year starter and blue chip recruit. #StayInYourLane

The words "national championship" and CBI should NEVER be mentioned together.

Since you're a woman, shouldn't it be 'pink' chip recruit?

You can’t compete with this guy so please stop Wow. You must be really impressive. We’re lucky that you can take the time to join us on the board.

Remember the time that he threatened to bench press Sheets (aka teen wolf). No, that is not a parody, he really did.

Plenty of times when I just have to walk away and not respond with the first thing that comes to mind. Don't know if that's better in the long run, but at least the delay allows for a more reasoned, and less emotional, response. Let's Go Saints!

My crew wants to bag season tickets. I'm 50/50. This is becoming ridiculous. Tick tock.
