George Mason's roller-coaster season ends in NIT heartbreaker against Liberty

Jahari Long played all 40 minutes and scored 27 points, but it wasn’t enough for the George Mason men’s basketball team to overcome a 15-point deficit against Liberty as they lost 77-71 in the opening round of the National Invitational Tournament. About six weeks ago, everything was going so...

Late on commenting on NIT game, since that forum was shut down by admin, I am posting my games season comments here. First the game, typical cold start , team tries to comeback too little too late. Bad TO s , terrible D you all know the story the last 10' or so games. I ve been saying Kanga should have been our 5 starter since the OCC games but a few of you kept talking about Riley's offense and we need him etc etc. If you want no D or hustle then Riley is your man. I ll take Kanga every time . For next season , we must keep Kory and Kanga , O'Connor too, everyone else can go . We need a dog on this team someone who is willing to do the dirty work . We need a hustle guy and finally a lock down defender or as close to one as possible. I have faith Tony will get as many of these types of guys As he can with the limited amount of $$ that he has. Let s hope he can get back to team 59 on defense and we can get the guys he needs to have a competitive team. PS: I posted this in the attendance thread when Matt shut it down, thought i would bring it back to correct place.

Add Fatts and Long and I’m in.

Hill needs to commit to playing better defense. He was not quite as bad as Troutman was, but he was part of the ole crew in several of our losses mid-season.

Caveat: It will also help if he never has to play the 4 ever.
