Re: NEC 2022
If you have really been following them, they have not really been improving. In fact I would say they have digressed. They have players on that team that should suggest that they should be playing much better. Especially on offense. Way too many turnovers, bad shots, and individualism. I blame that on the coach.gymman1031 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 25, 2022 7:33 pm LIU, even if not this year, is going to win the conference tournament soon.

Re: NEC 2022
Unfortunately the whole conference does not look very good this year outside of St Joe. I think there are a couple of teams that on a given day could play well and give St. Joe a challenge. The bottom line is that St Joe is really the only consistent team that looks good to me as of right now.

Re: NEC 2022
Ketch , I always love your posts they show great insight into the game , the team and the Colleges .
But the two strong players out is not an excuse , all teams have players out over the course of the year , “next man up” guys need to be ready to step up and carry the load while Madonna or others are out .
As old bartman says this doesn’t fly at the D1 level
Being field side Saturday the energy and purpose of the team was way off.

Re: NEC 2022
Next man up is true, but I saw faces out there I’ve never seen before and they weren’t ready. We need to get those guys game ready, and fast. Gotta believe that Baltzer, Dattelas and Madonna would have made the difference out there.catchnshoot wrote: ↑Mon Mar 21, 2022 11:37 am Ketch , I always love your posts they show great insight into the game , the team and the Colleges .

Re: NEC 2022
Yes!! They should have been ready, next man up... the reason they weren't is the coaches shortened the bench immediately after the Canisius game.Ketch wrote: ↑Mon Mar 21, 2022 12:24 pmNext man up is true, but I saw faces out there I’ve never seen before and they weren’t ready.

Re: NEC 2022
I agree. Back in February I saw a whole string of guys running. Wondering where they are now.
There was a bright spot with Bach coming back. That's what we need ... someone out for two games steps back and puts three in the back of the net.
In any case, St. Joes is the team to beat in the NEC.

St Joes certainly seems to be the class of the league , but never count out Presslers teams they will be Bulldogs to the bitter end.

Re: NEC 2022
Bryant moving to the America East conference. Will the NEC allow them to play in the NEC tournament if they qualify?

Re: NEC 2022
We are wishing we had a functional goalie at the moment. Been a problem since second half of 21 season.
Now I love those cowboys, I love their gold
Love my uncle, God rest his soul
Taught me good, Lord, taught me all I know
Taught me so well, that I grabbed that gold
I left his dead ass there by the side of the road, yeah

Re: NEC 2022
Hopefully St. Joe doesn't get upset in the NEC tournament. If anyone but them get's the AQ, it will be embarrassing for the NEC.
Not sure who said that LIU has a bunch of gamers, but I am assuming it is either a parent of a player or someone that has not watched them at all. Their offense is horrible with maybe 1 "gamer". I will give it up for LIU's defense this year though. I think they have improved.

Re: NEC 2022
I know Ryan Archer or another 5th year is likely to get
NEC player of the year,
but Tucker Brown is just about unstoppable these days,
he’s an all american, as important as Zach Cole to St. Joe’s.

I think Cole gets NEC player of the year. NEC offensive player of the year is a coin toss between those 2.
Re: NEC 2022
Cole caught one in the knee, a freak play on a scrum.
He did come back in the game.
