Re: QF #3 Hopkins vs #6 Virginia Sunday @2:30

........ A good team at any of these programs is no longer a guarantee to make a Final Four This. Exactly this. Never was. The Final Four teams from twenty years were more than good. “Good” has never been good enough for the Final Four. This was true even in the 1970s and 1980s. DocBarrister Pay at...

Re: QF #3 Hopkins vs #6 Virginia Sunday @2:30

Seems to me that Hop fans should be celebrating the positive trajectory, not ripping the current coach because they came up short in a year when most of us preseason likely didn't expect them to make it to the final 8, much less a half inch away from final 4. Could you just say Doc? Because it's on...

Re: QF #4 Syracuse vs #5 Denver Sunday @ noon

Might be time to initiate a new tradition and strip the #22 for services not rendered. From what I have heard about him, he's a very good teammate and all about being a good teammate. Honestly, it'd be a real baller move for him to say. "I'm giving it up, and if I earn it back, I earn it back....

Re: QF #4 Syracuse vs #5 Denver Sunday @ noon

If Brennan O’niell catches as much heat as he does for being who he is than Spallina shouldn’t even be in the same universe as him. I agree, nobody hates the kid but all that hype and I just don’t see it. He has surprised me as an excellent passer though. Honest question, why does he play the way h...

Should we avoid the Christmas rush, and start hating Spallina for next season now?

Re: QF #4 Syracuse vs #5 Denver Sunday @ noon

Denver's defense is so good. Syracuse is way into danger zone right now. They've gotten better with each passing game. Not too to mention they are faster, quicker, better stick work, and have better footwork than Cuse offense. It’s gonna take some sexy shooting off picks by Cuse or transition goals...

Mark Matthews made that so sexy. Who you rooting for….tough decision, no?
Both! Can't lose. Just hoping for a fun, close game.

Or he was the recipient of a cheap shot off camera......

Still.... a dumb thing to do in a playoff game.

Re: John Tillman: Best Coach in the Game, Right?

I was at the game. I was saying the same thing about Tillman yesterday as Maryland clawed their way to the win. He's a tremendous coach. I will say though, that dominating face offs and getting solid goalie play when the opposing goalie is not making stops were the clear keys to this game. When tho...

Re: Coaches On The Hot Seat 2024

Fact is a dirty little secret common in teams sports is that an elite player can be dilutive to a team. I can cite an internal example of Alex Love. Good though he was the amount of focus and time the ball was in his stick was too much a jd guys wouldn’t move off bal and stand and watch. Hofstra w ...

Re: Coaches On The Hot Seat 2024

Is it time to add Danowski? We can now add O’Neill, Williams, Naso, Carpenter and Zawada to the longgggggg list of pro level talent to graduate without a ring since 2014. This has always been rather mystifying to me. Dano had 20+ years of mediocrity at Hofstra and was about to be shown the door aft...

"Dems like me" are not 100% happy with Biden, and don't pretend to be. But it is a reality that one candidate and one party are still interested in democracy, an unfettered right to vote, the rule of law and other outdated stuff like that. The GOP has rejected democracy; this is the lesso...
