What good is 360 seating in the MAAC when no one goes to the game? Your school is new to a conference and your team is hosting the defending champions and the joint is a ghost town? Looking at all the empty seats on TV is distracting. Has there been a Quinny possession where they did not at least touch the ball on one of their missed shots? It's all hands on deck for the offensive board. Still winter break. No students in school. I caught a little bit of college basketball on TV this weekend...all packed arenas and their students are on winter break too. You don't need "arenas" in the MAAC. |

For those of you guys who are in love with Laury I wonder if you have ever noticed that he has no idea what to do when he is on defense. I find it hard to belive that he is even being coached. as a matter of fact I find it hard to belive anyone on this team is being coached. English, Hinds and Sledge are the only players who seem to care. Laury has huge offensive skills, but he gets into these funks where he retreats into himself. The coaching staff can't get him to Play D at all, and Laury's overall game isn't improving. This isn't all on Laury. The coaching staff doesn't seem to be getting through to him. |

Too little too late. This team was not prepared, and only a few played with heart tonight. The final score won't reflect what a debacle this was.

ic 59 I agree with you 100 percent. You can't have a guy out there who has no clue how to defend. Someone has to make him learn how to defend.

Outrebounded 50-27. I guess a lot of that comes when the treys aren't falling.

This Gaels team reminds me of the little girl in the poem by Longfellow:
THERE was a little girl,
And she had a little curl
Right in the middle of her forehead.
When she was good
She was very, very good,
And when she was bad she was horrid.

I'm not as displeased with this loss as I thought I would be. In the past we might have lost by 30+.
We found the leader of our team . And he's a sophomore

Quinnys bigs Azotam and Drame are very good. We can't beat this team without a strong effort on D. We can't watch guys shoot open jump shots.
Got to think part of the attendance issue for this game is that it was moved and moved to a night when the BCS championship game is on.

We're lucky only a few people saw this. Too bad it was televised.

Let me sum up my night, 7:00 I tune into SNY to see the game, 7:26 my wife comes by and tells me she is going grocery shopping, I told her its cold out, give me list and I'll go for you. My wife always does right by me!!!

Quinny had two stud rebounders and to me Laury looked, tired, disinterested and lazy tonight. Just like the OSU game, our glaring weakness consisting of lack of size and poor rebounding was exposed tonight.
Iona needs to recruit a kid like Azotam. The kid was relentless on the glass and finished or was fouled on offense.
