Game 20: HOMECOMING. GMU (14-5 / 3-3) vs Rhode Island (9-10 / 3-3) on Saturday, January 27, at 4:00PM.

[NewPatriot]

And during tailgating the lambs will be slaughtered and cooked. It's GMU's own little Eid al-Adha.

So Mason fans are now required make sin offerings ala Leviticus? I am gonna need to kill alot of sheep.

1 game out of 4th! and 1 game ahead of 10th yikes!

1 game out of 4th! and 1 game ahead of 10th yikes!

Feel like this happens every year in the first part of conference season, and then by like game 10 you finally start seeing the separation occur of who is really a top 6 versus the bottom 6.

Pending some sort of miracle, it looks like the pillow fight will definitely include Lasalle St Louis and Duquense.

Hey! If you plan on swinging by the tailgate, just hit like or send me a DM so I can get a headcount. I LOVE YOU!

 

[Falco]

is it normal to have this long break between games? I hope Mason doesn’t come out flat.

With 15 teams every team will have a bye at some point during conference play. We also have 8 days between GW on 2/13 and Dayton on 2/21.

They also for some weird reason gave us a short turnaround right before that @Davidson on 2/10 and GW on 2/13.

May pop on by as I make rounds with my friends.

I've noticed that since Loyola joined the schedule has gotten very wonky. Used to be a very consistent two games a week, now I feel like there are a lot of bye weeks coupled with short turnarounds. The obvious solution is to boot La Salle.

I think the league is waiting to see what the next move is that impacts them. Whether we go to 14 because someone leaves or go to 16 to even it out is just the question.

Anyone have an extra Gold Room Pass for tomorrow?

What comes first- Charleston to the A-10 or UMass to CUSA? That's the play in all this

I'll be floating around with @mkaufman1 and a few others.

I'll definitely be at the game, but don't know if I'll make it to the tailgate. The GMU Recreation Alumni group is having a gathering/hall-of-fame induction at Auld Shebeen during tailgate time.

But feel free to say hi if you see me - I'll be wearing a big hat.

The GMU Recreation Alumni group has a hall of fame but...

Okay I'll stop, LOL. Sounds good hope to run into you.

Not to get too off topic, but I nominated John Linn and he is finally being inducted this year. This was my write-up, he was a hell of a man and I am saddened that I never got to meet him. Hell - he belongs in any athletic hall of fame that GMU ever creates. Now, back to your regularly scheduled game-talk.

"I'd like to nominate John Linn (deceased), former coach for the GMU club Trap and Skeet team. From the mid-1980s to the early-1990s, Coach Linn led the team to seven consecutive national championship titles between 1985 and 1992. Since his passing in 1992, the Trap and Skeet team has won an additional 4 national titles, making it (to my knowledge) the most successful program in GMU sports history. Trap and Skeet is the second oldest club sport at GMU, second only to rugby. Coach Linn also served as an advisor to the 1980 Venezuelan Olympic shotgun team and coached the U.S. Junior Olympic shotgun team. If one only considered his Trap and Skeet accomplishments, Coach Linn would be more than qualified to be inducted into the Recreation Hall of Fame.

However, Coach Linn also served as the head coach for men's basketball at GMU between 1971 and 1980, which at the time was only a part time position. For men's basketball, he was instrumental in guiding the program to join Division I in the 1978-1979 season. When he resigned that position in 1980, the following coach (Joe Harington) was the first full-time men's basketball coach employed by the University. In recognition of his many contributions to GMU recreation and athletics, the Linn Gymnasium was named in his honor and dedicated in April 1993.

In his 22 years as an employee of GMU, Coach Linn also served as cross country coach, assistant baseball coach, intramural director, and assistant athletic director.

I can't think of anyone who's name belongs in the GMU Recreation Hall of Fame more than Coach John Linn."

Basically thats the game that everyone is thinking is going on.

I personally would love to have Charleston join us in the league. Great city, great program.

I like having Umass in the conference. As much as I make jokes about their twitter folk thinking they are winning the national title every offseason, I feel like they are a lot like us Mason fans. Just seems like they have many more than us (even though their attendance is as bad).
