UMass 73

Will UMass have a larger available roster this time?
Will the top 3 point % shooter return to GMU after missing 10 games?

 

[plydogg]

Will UMass end the seasons of both the Spider men and women?

Jesus. Worst possible draw for Thursday attending.

Respectfully, please leave the name of "Jesus" out of the comment. Inappropriate.

NYC ➡️ RVA? Did we already forfeit and head home?

whatever we are paying the intern to run the official twitter account, IT'S TOO MUCH

Just completely classic from the athletic department. We overpay for underperformance in every aspect.

I’m fine with Mooney getting another year if Hardt is fired now and we hire a real AD for next year. We need a good AD before we hire a new coach anyway.

we bash Hardt here and it may be warranted. I have no idea what an AD actually does, besides hire new head coaches. is Hardt bad simply because he extended Mooney, or is there more to it?

More to it how long u got…I’ve said for 5 years how pretentious he is…think u really just need to listen to him speak but maybe u have to meet him.

Mooney is biggest piece as hoops is the main draw here. But issues w number of sports & coaches. Remember he was part of a sham hire process…while that’s not his fault…I do believe he knew he was coming into a don’t rock the boat during the “Regatta” situation. Maybe he can pay Lunardi more $ and all will be overlooked.

Also don’t forget the SLU fiasco the A10 commissioner showed how much respect she had for him.

My personal sense is he failed badly when he said he needed more time to evaluate CM after the first 20-loss season and then agreed to extend him after the second one based on the promising talent returning.

Has that bet worked out? Kind of. Not sure we should have a ton of confidence that Hardt made the right bet four years later.

this thread turned out predictive. won't pile on mentioning his favorite pg

last 2 minutes summed up about 10 plus years of Richmond hoops. CANNOT CLOSE OUT GAMES, it’s pathetic

Yep. 2-11 in the last two minutes. How many times have we seen that vertical spike in the opponent's win probability after the last official time-out?

when we were up 4 with 2 minutes to go I knew it was over.

I thought the TO about 2:08 was ours not officials' ?

It was.

My question was rhetorical. A spike from favored to loser in the last 4 minutes. We see it far too often.

Utah Valley was up by 3 points with 4.4 seconds to go today and lost in regulation. Rumor has it they’re negotiating a buyout for Mooney as we speak

That was an epic meltdown and final collapse. And despite it all, that one dude still had a layup attempt at the buzzer to win it for UVU and it just rolled out. Brutal.
