I saw that, Jay should have speared that creep on the court.

Heck yeah. Everybody gets a better deal with The U. Each year since OCM left, I get a letter in the mail to be a "streaming season ticket holder" for $49.99 plus a free t-shirt.
Yeah that was crazy. One of the staff for St Joes on the bench actually was laughing when Jay was yelling at him and Jay got more upset. I'm glad they were told.
As for the Hawk, I'm intrigued if they try to do silly things in other arenas and get away with it. Oddly enough in the 90s they got into a bruhaha in Rhode Island

Question. Is the streaming package in Mason SD? Or some fancy shmancy HD?

The Miami feed I was referring to is in beautiful HD.
We're staring 0-8 in the face. Who's excited for the game at St. Louis? Woohoo.
I get to crawl for an hour down 395 to get to Wednesday's [sure to be] rout vs. UMass. I'm dripping with anticipation.
Don't believe everything you read.
Haha I don't- but it certainly seemed like that many people were there.
It sucks that 5,000 in a 10,000 seat arena is considered a good crowd.
I agree that the Patriot Center is too big. A 7,000 seat arena would be ideal.

Been saying that for years. I think a little smaller would be better though. 5.5K or so...
I've got a recipe for immediate, guaranteed success: Before every game, Hewitt should decide what his instincts are telling him to do against our upcoming opponent, and do the exact opposite.
I know we're not a great -- or even good -- pressing team. But SJU has very little depth at full strength and even less than that with both Roberts and Miles in street clothes. So can somebody please explain to me why we didn't press and push the tempo in an attempt to get into the Hawks' sorry bench?
Letting them walk the ball up the court and play in the halfcourt against our awful defense was playing right into Martelli's hands.
We outscored their bench 27-2, but not that it made any difference; with help from Hewitt, Martelli was able to play his 5 starters for all but about 10 minutes.
Brilliant!
Even Pete Gillen, who was never a master tactician during his coaching days, wondered aloud multiple times why we weren't pressing. When Pete Gillen is second-guessing your coaching, that's just about rock bottom.

Jay needs to be careful or that other hip could be in danger.
