Join Bill Rohland for the exhibition game today, live on youtube. This is a "test" for a new way to cover Mason road games, since the AD has decided to cut those broadcasts.

Is that behind the basket? What happens if a ball bounces out of bounds into the concession area and knows over food or hits a fan in the back of the head.

Worse yet, what if a players submarines a fan in line diving for a loose ball out of bounds?

...then it's a basketball game! A contact sport. Advice: If one sits back there then don't wear one's Sunday Best.

Even with all considerations paid to the level of competition today, we is gonna have fun this season! These guys are quick and dialed in on D. It's definitely going to be Baraka's team!!!

Like being in the front rows of SeaWorld/Shamu, Gallagher or Blue Man Group....anything could end up in your lap....

I saw this yesterday at the women's game. It would be fairly difficult for a ball to clear the risers that the two rows of bar stools and drinks rails are on, and make it all the way into the Courtside Club.

I like that they include the box score on the screen. Much better than just seeing an empty radio booth.

Its the answer for now. This is an experiment for ROAD GAMES ONLY. (We would not have rights to their video feeds)

All home games will be avail on the usual locations.

Where the 3's at? 1-6 so far.

I imagine it was not in today's game plan necessarily. Defense and half court set ups.....

Trying to read the tea leaves on who our top 8-9 minute getters are going to be and it seems the obvious 5: Okojie, O’Connor, EOE, Jones, Kanga

Then: Valentine, Presley, and maybe Pendergrass (as the ninth), but trying to figure out who is going to spell Kanga at the 5. Is it going to be Jones? Maybe Adair? No Marcus sighting today in the first half.

Good call. The wild card is always what player decides they want to be on the floor the most.

Mendy looks like he could be serviceable in this role, at least as a second option (that, 3rd level) behind Kanga or for "emergency" minutes. Mendy needs more run to develop, but he could be good for us in the long-term.

3 Bid League question for Mason in the season preview asked: Will this defense be good or great? I’m going to lean toward great.
