If you are under 7 ft tall and can't shoot 60% from the foul line, you shouldn't be allowed to play college basketball. And Cayo shouldn't be in the game during the last 5 minutes.
I mean our defense is so bad really even in this game. We really have no ability to keep people in front of us and no desire behind that to rotate and be tough on defense. None whatsoever.
gilyard is exhausted shots not even close, so why is the play called after time out a 28 ft shot by Gilyard. Even the TV announcer thought it was odd.
Are any of the 81 watching this game.

That Fordham is letting Cayo shoot without fouling him is mystifying. Helpful, though.
Cayo saving our bacon today even if he cant shoot FT. Just hope he isn't somehow saving somebody's job.
kudos to the kids for overcoming the adversity that is their coach!
jeez, can't you just leave it at kudos to the kids?
Great job by the players to overcome the coach’s shortcomings!
Shit, after that, we should fire the coach now. Make a statement and fire him mid-tourney. Give us a chance the rest of the way. Damn, we're bad.
Fine, whatever. One simple question. As a total game performance (no specifics please) did you see any important in this team today from the beginning of the A10 season?
No I can not - - - not after watching that debacle. Quite frankly the kids deserve better than what they have coaching them! And I can provide PLENTY of details that show why we have much more of a coaching problem than a player problem. For starters just go look at our zone "offense". Fifth grade girls who practice 90 minutes a week run that offense. But I digress for the moment in my frustration - - - they deserve credit for playing hard and winning - - - despite everything!
I was thinking the exact same thing. There have better losses than that win today
I don’t think Mooney is a good coach, but I thought he was fine today. Guys just weren’t making shots. We should’ve had 70 at least if our guys had made layups and foul shots
Good for the guys to get the win and advance. Hopefully if nothing else these tourney games give us some more experience and positive momentum for next year.
I can't tell you how many moments I've have like that for many years now with Mooney's coaching. We all know the kids are good individuals and also know they need a new coach teaching them. I think I can say for all anti-Mooney posters here, we all feel for them more than ourselves.
love ya, Philly, but I have no idea what you're watching. that goes for most of you, so blinded by your frustrations that every thought is tainted.
Jacob is awesome. he was awful today. happens. but he got great looks. he didn't shoot 2-14 because of Mooney or a badly run offense. he missed shots.
Goose was 1-10. Grant struggled too. but no, our shooting poorly today isn't on Mooney.
and I'm not arguing that he should stay. do I have to repeat that again. too many people here can't think straight anymore. so for the health of the program, or the fan base, he should go if we can do it. but there's this constant warped belief that every missed shot, or foul shot, or rebound, or rain drop is Mooney's fault. it's ridiculous.

Thank goodness he was out there. He scored eight in the last 5:30 and won the game for us. I mentioned I wasn't sure he was a 30+ minutes a game player for us, but I'm glad he played a lot and carried us today. I have to give him a lot of credit. His game has improved tremendously, and hopefully he will get even better in the next two years. But, he does need to start all over on free throws with new form and everything.
