On a separate note, any word on the whereabouts of Z73? Miss his enthusiasm and informative posts.

java, if you can't shoot you don't play in this system, i think 8 is perfect, college kids should be able to go 32 minutes each, that leaves 40 minutes for 3 bench guys, i don't want our starters playing less than 30 minutes. Tc played our starters alot of minutes because they could getplaying time at the next level in college, our bench wouldn't

1 call doesn't make it a badly officiated game, against a bcs school it was fine, you guys are going to be crying in the maac tournament if we play siena

Doesn't have to be simply a foul disparity to get jobbed AJ called for a travel at a crucial moment when in reality the defender is hanging all over him. Turnover for us; not a foul on them. I'm surprised we react the way we do when it happens. You want to beat a BCS team on the road you basically have to kill them. Homer calls are to be expected. Lets work on relaxing on the FT line. I simply can't get angry at our guys for losing a game on the road where we basically every call down the stretch goes against us. Even if they are 50-50 calls we're not getting them there. Can't argue with you and 1983. Some of us do not see it your way. IMO there is no way ALL the calls went against us down the stretch, I think it's a fabrication. And the crowd of 2800 or whatever it was certainly made no difference.

As for ESPN3 - I just purchased a new router and that helped, picture on my iPad was very clear and better than in the past but the game still got stuck 3 times, and I had to shut down and start over again. Still think espn3 is not where Maac semis should be shown. Its still not good enough, too many people don't have what is needed to make it work. Maac needs to get the semis on ESPNU. Still comes down to internet speed. I guess optimum just sucks, but my point is why do you have to worry about this. Lots of people have optimum, so this must be a problem for others. Better than having to watch on an illegal site but still too many problems for too many people. By now ESPN should put the Maac semis on espnu, almost every other conference has their semis on real tv.

For the limited time Dublin has played, he has produced by making interior buckets. Also, the reasoning for Robinson was to have another long body to help with interior deflections and boards. Perhaps I should allow super and QS the opportunity to expand on this as both were at the game.

Joebird, you are correct and maybe its optimum. was so bad on my laptop that I just turned it off and followed the game on cbs gametracker. very frustrating as I looked forward to watching the game tonight. At least Iona won!! will try to watch the game again on replay.

The bottom line is we got a great break with the technical call (no timeout) and the technical/last foul call to knock Thomas out. The ying and the yang of a mod major road W

Hines was good tonight, though we could use a few more boards from. Mohammad is a capable backup. Not sure what to make of Dublin. I expected him to have more of a role.

At least Iona won!! will try to watch the game again on replay. I had perfect HD reception and I cast it to the big screen. Some tablets and PCs don't have enough CPU to do a decent job in streaming video. One way to get around that is to buy a Chromecast for 35 bucks. When you cast to Chromecast from an iPad or android, almost all the work is done by Chromecast, which gets the data directly from the net and not from your device. Therefore, there is no drag from your device. I actually used my cell phone as the control device.
