Some/most on this board will never learn. All the talk about running through this OOC schedule with the exception of Auburn was wishful thinking. Mooney is a Princeton grad. He knew what he had when the schedule was put together despite all the it's so hard talk. Keep drinking whatever is in Mooney's cup. LOL
Just found out it was Marist’s first buy game win since 2018…… yikes

2024 Presidential Election

Presidential experts and historians don't agree with you, Biden 14th, Trump last. But you have to be right because its your opinion, correct?

What a joke. How anyone could believe this amazes me. No offense intended and hope non taken, but damn.

Do you believe these to be impartial arbiters of truth or rank partisans suffering from TDS?

Voters answered the question Tuesday. Most folks do not believe this BS anymore.

3 of 4 times we have come int a half and looked terrible. That's coaching and understanding your team and putting guys out there who can play well together.

When Moon took a timeout that wasn't after a score by us (or even by Marist) and there were still 5m left, it was obvious he knew the panic button had been pushed. 15 points in 15 minutes of a half culminating with a couple of awful turnovers/dreadful offensive possessions finally got him to break the glass and use a TO. Jordan King wasn't out there to cover for him tonight.

Pascarelli (number 5) was 5 for 8 from 3. He looks like a Jordan King. He killed us down the stretch. Price (24) was 6-10 from 3. I thought the Spiders D overall was good, but those 2 had some daylight and were just great from 3. They were easily the best shooters in the game. However, the Spiders' offense, especially in the second half was lost- pass the ball around, no shots, small guy drive and try to throw up a shot-look familiar?
We have two bigs-never parked near the hoop-no shots. I didn't see the Mount Olive game, but after the Spiders scored 101, I had visions. Tonight brought me back down. Marist looked poised on offense, Spiders did not.

2024 Presidential Election

I assume this is a joke; total fake news BS. 70M voter will disagree with your post. Why and how you could ever believe this administration is anything other than the worst in modern history defies logic. The far left woke element has all but destroyed a once great party and unless those with proud roots can drag the Dem masses back close to the center the party will drift aimlessly. I was a member of the party until the party left me. Since Bill I don’t recognize anything that I would support.

It’s comical at this point. I was just laughing at the end. Typical Mooney, who got extended before this year btw.

Marist clearly looked like the better team. Faster, more athletic, and wanted it more.
This I found very concerning. They were longer and more athletic and shot right over our diminutive guards. I have beat the drums about our wings not being athletic enough, but didn't think it would be so obvious vs Marist.

Burn JROB's redshirt. NOW. Section 9's eyes don't lie. We need dudes that can compete.

that made me laugh actually.

agree on 23's comment above. last year, the UR defense could switch all screens not involving Neal and Bigelow/Dji could pick up the guards no problem. This year, it's two small guards flanked by wings/forwards who appear to all be sub-par defenders, and when Beagle is in, a big who isn't good on defense either. Tonight it led to nonstop breakdowns, open shots, 2nd chance points and getting trolled by Rothstein.

Last year appears like the aberration. Extend Moon (retroactive to last year's success, which will be cited for 4+ more years.)

everything about the "bad" mooney teams all wrapped up in one game. The single worst thing about this is how little impact last year seems to have had on Moon and his philosophy. We were an "anti-moon" team year. Defensively oriented, not totally three dependent at all, actually rebounded (at least defensively) etc. and surprised everyone. Looking at this team, its like that never happened. We can't keep anyone in front of us and our help and recover and flying dutchmen kicks in.

Don't love that at the first sign of trouble we turn to 3 point shooters who dont offer much else and, as it turns out, don't actually shoot the three all that great either
Exactly. Last year was apparently the result of accidentally recruiting tough athletic defenders. Bigs was basically a perimeter shooter at Wofford. And the player from WCU was a last last second pick up. Boydens emphasis on defense has not been put on the backbone, but thrown entirely out of the kitchen.

6m left first half - 37-28 Spiders
5m left second half - 67-59 Marist

Outscored 39-22 over 21 minutes of play throughout the middle of the game. By Marist. Who just lost to Harvard by 13.

I'd say that I can't wrap my head around it, but of course I can because we have a leafy campus and a coach-for-life who wins at a 55% clip. Nothing will ever change. I don't know why I expect it.

My expectations are clarly the issue with my enjoyment of the program.
