Mens: Marist Game Thread @ RC: Sat 11/9 6pm ESPN+

Harvard pretty easily handled Marist 79-66 on opening night. Spiders will go to 2-0 and win 85-62.

may as well discuss this game (man, our OOC schedule is uninspiring.)

In terms of overall improvements, I'd like to see better 3 point shooting, better wing defense - feel like we had defenders get shook off the dribble too many times - and a better first 5-8 minutes. It was a 2 point game after 9 minutes against Mt. Olive.

Hope Soilis gets more time against Marist. It looks like his body went through some of the same transformation that Golden’s did after his freshman shortened season.

Also hoping all the first game jitters are gone and we see less panicking by a few of the less experienced guys.

Even though the OOC is uninspiring, next week’s games are the most competitive ones of the month. Need to see some improvements.

Worth your 10 minutes listening to Coach and Walz is just amazing at interviews ...

Really enjoying seeing Walz step into the spotlight this season...agree he's an excellent interview.

yeah he and his comments represent why UR can and should be net positive in the Transfer and NIL era and given the TB, Grant, and TJ all view UR as their offseason home is unique ...

Fluidity
Compete
Hype the other team's guards

Moon BINGO!

Yes. Mooney has won the long game. We are competing. I want to see Boyden turn Tanner and Glou into Dawgs. This would allow us to have a high ceiling.

Agree Walz impressive. He’s going to be a success off court too.

 

[Spiders4ever]

Blow them out.

-9.5 line is smaller than I would have expected

Is the RC as empty as it looks on tv? The angle we just saw looks like there are barely 50 people there

Edit: they zoomed out and the view we were seeing looked to be about 30 minutes before tip. Timer above the baskets was at about 23 minutes and counting down.

If Walz is being subbed out for Beagle less than 2 minutes into the game, Beagle should just start.
