Siena's next four games (A hot Marist team, Iona, @ Manhattan, @ Iona) is probably the toughest stretch until the late February slate (@ Marist, Canisius, Manhattan, @ Rider, @ Quinnipiac).
What are fan expectations for these next four games?

Marist is a big game...don't want to go into a skid so we need to protect the home court and beat them on Friday night. Iona is very beatable at home but won't be easy. Any game on the road will be tough for us but especially Manhattan, Iona and Quinnipiac which might be the three best teams in the MAAC (Canisius rounding out the top 4)

I said 1-3 because Long and White are too up and down, as is usually the case with freshmen, to expect anything more.

I said 1-3 simply because we are playing 3 games against the two teams in the league that I don't know if this Siena team can beat. I will be thrilled if they can protect the home court and go 2-2.

Home court streak will continue... Wright and Long have been consistent in their roles starting as freshman and Poole Bisping and Silas have provided leadership. Hymes is a spark off the bench the bigger the game the bigger he plays. Patsos is still looking for that top 8 or 9 to run through the rest of the season...I believe they will emerge to continue the home streak

I'm going with 2-2 after watching Iona last night. There are ways to take them out of their game and I think our kids might have a chip big enough to do that. I don't think we have a chance against Manhattan, but hey, you never know! They are really going to need the crowd this weekend more than ever. Sure wish we could identify a dog pound member/leader as a contributor to this board and fast!

I think there is little debate that Wright has been consistent.

I think there is little debate that Wright has been consistent. I know what he said...And IMOP the 2 freshman I listed have been pretty consistent filling their rolls in the starting lineup all season..

I'll go with 1-3 and be ecstatic with 2-2-- Iona and Manhattan along with Quinny will be tough match ups for Siena this year- they are too quick and athletic for us -- Siena is a relatively slow team and those 3 teams in particular will make Siena pay for that-- but hey that's all right we knew we had some "holes" coming into season

Quinny is insane. Last night was too much. They are playing lights out in front of a vocal 63 fans. This is tough 2-2 is my pick with great hesitation.

I would think against this caliber of teams the record would be something like 1-3. I voted 2-2 because these kids have shown us the ability to do a few things we didn't think they would be able to do their first year together.

We're still talking about MAAC programs right not Kansas, Ohio State and Arizona? Don't get me wrong we'll probably be underdogs in 3 out of the 4 games and I wouldn't be surprised at 1-3 but we can beat any of them if we play well.

I went 2-2 but I think it is a best case scenario. But hey if they start to "get it" anything can happen.
