I'll say top 40 if it will make you sleep better at night, but if buffalo is 25 right now I don't see why we can't be. Monmouth was just there 2 years back. We will have more talent than they had to be honest.

Can't overlook Norfolk State...they played Michigan and South Carolina pretty tough. They can shoot the ball well. Siena is a 4.5-point favorite from Vegasinsider.com. The team has had 8 days off which is a lot early in the season.
We have to handle some success coming off a road win. I do know we will be prepared tonight. We're not good enough to overlook anybody. The team will be ready to go - hopefully we can keep shooting it well from three, limit turnovers/fouls and make our FTs when we get to the line.

We will be a top 25 team next year. I'm putting it in words right now so its noted and I will hold to it...Southerland and Walker are legit recruits and are huge!!! 6'6" and 6'8" or 6'9"respectively, both can shoot and play defense. With the team as solid as they are now and with Carey, Pickett, Seymour and Ratliff all I can say is I have seen enough to know the direction Jamion is taking this team. We will continue to be the most conditioned in the country and with our size and shooting ability all it does is stretch defenses and open the floor for opportunity. This dude knows what he is doing and again I'll hold to my words and hope some of you see whats coming down the pipeline here. We are on the verge of blowing up everyone and lets enjoy! Potential lineup for next year may not have a guy under 6'6" on the floor and they all can shoot and play D. Think about that.... Lets take care of business tonight! One game at a time. Hahaha Love your enthusiasm, but I have a much more cautious outlook. I think the team will be fun to watch this year, and I agree they are well conditioned, play together well and can shoot- but the truth of the matter is we aren’t that talented- front court is extremely slow. There will be nights when shots are not falling that this team will struggle. I do wholeheartedly agree program is headed in right direction and I think we may seriously contend for title as early as next year—top 25 maybe a few years away Top 25 prediction is nutty, but if they somehow manage to compete this class with Ismael Cruz they could contend for the MAAC title as soon as next season. The talent would be in place to have a similar turnaround to McCaffery season 2. But it wouldn't be until JC season 3 before they're really ready to roll. He needs 2 full-fledged recruiting classes for 2019 and 2020 to fully remake the program with the personnel to run mayhem as intended.

We will have more talent than they had to be honest. in Siena's history they have never been top 25 for more than maybe a millisecond, so after an abysmal 10-year stretch, you see 2 games and a few recruits and have this team beyond anywhere hardly any MAAC team has ever been?? And not even looking, I would bet Buffalo's coach gets twice what Siena pays, have a much larger budget and play in a better conference. and who do you envision being Robinson from Monmouth on this team? one of the all time great MAAC players.

Was Monmouth ever in the top 25? Or maybe I am not following.

Just roll with it, but remember it towards the end of this year and next. I know its an outrageous thing to say, but we have all the cylinders firing now. I am cool with day drinking, but AM drinking is a bit much...... would say you are a bit delusional at best. Top 25, come on. I love his attitude! I would say he's a little overzealous as opposed to outrageous. I know one thing. We're going to be pretty good next year. (17-22 wins)

I remember this poster’s “takes” last year, he/she is definitely a fan in the true sense of the word (fanatic & I can appreciate that) but he/she makes pretty bold almost to the point of being ridiculous predictions.
Predicting top 25 based on 2 games 😏 funny stuff!
