No kidding, its a real tournament at a neutral site, lose and go home, win and advance. It's a chance to be in Vegas four days if they win. Obliviously they would return when they lose. It's the best option at preparing for next season and winning the maac tournament. best option for prepping, huh? ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png) ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png) ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png) ?.....................not sure you have your head on straight, impossible for you to claim that..........................me thinks you saying this because of the extracurricular activities that you (fans) would enjoy going to that event/location..............albeit Jimmy is resourceful enough to find "field trips" away from the gambling tables to keep the kids occupied (Hoover Dam for sure)!!!!!!!!!!!! They are there to play in a basketball tournament. Win 4 games in 4 days is prep for next year. If they choose to enjoy Vegas for other things good for them and I hope they have fun and learn a few things.

Moot point anyway. They went the easy route and chose to pay to play at the TUC.

Maybe we'll see Robert Morris and Rice in the tournament? ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) I'm having a hard time finding those Andy Toole and Mike Rhoades fans lately. After three years, it's pretty clear we hired the right guy. Next year should be a fun one for our fanbase.

Conference champs, and NITs since his first season in 2010. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Toole

Jimmy had a great 1st year-- shaky second year - very good third year. Jimmy has shown ability to improve..I think he now "gets it" that Siena is not Loyola. Recruiting is better- coaching staff is better- talent is better. In fairness to Jimmy he inherited a mess. Siena talent level as team was as low as I had ever seen it when Jimmy took over. Jimmy is getting very close to me saying he should be extended. Maybe after next year? Scheduling needs to get better-- but we can work on that next..LOL

In an attempt to save the event it sounds like the Vegas Sixteen is going to be the Vegas Eight and they may be changing the dates of the event as well.
Giant cluster you know what.

I really hope they keep Albany and Siena on opposite sides of the bracket if they both make the semis. A 3 game series in the championship would be amazing, game 1 at SEFCU, game 2 at the ARC, and game 3 at the TUC.

Scheduling needs to get better-- but we can work on that next..LOL JPs done some nice things while here, but before we anoint him the savior of all things Siena (like a few here believe) we need to see how he handles the loss of Brett JO Wright and Long. How will be recruit? Will we reload or rebuild? After 3 yrs he's still 500, granted yr 2 was a disaster and largely beyond his control. However, I wouldn't extend his contract until I see what the team looks like after the major departures next year. I'd keep him honest. Ive been pleased so far with our progress. I hope we keep moving forward, recruitings the key and critical over the next year. We need athletes.

Reload? We are not at the top yet.. Not exactly what I meant, reload as in no drop off and we're getting better vs rebuild as in we drop from consecutive 20 win seasons to 500 ball.
