Last time we won a road game was over a month ago. Let's end the drought in Albany.

Siena good at home, we stink on the road and will be shorthanded. Not optimistic.

Anybody not hurt for this game? As a Packer fan this injury stuff is really getting old.

Maybe the spate of injuries will cause the team to pull together and go out there with a real chip on their shoulders. That's what I'm hoping for.
This is going to be a tough game. AJ, Tre, and Hinds will have to step up and have big games. Hopefully Sean and Laury can contribute.

When your back's to the wall time to band together and win or go down fighting

Losing Laury would be crushing but still believe we can win tomorrow even if he's out. Lineup would be:
English Armand Bowman Williams Hines
Bench: Poole, Gomez, Ellis, Sledge (?)
This lineup can still take down Siena. Won't be easy but we can do it.

How about Sledge? He has been a positive for us off the bench. Both he and IW can provide / have provided instant energy and aggressiveness. Change game tempo. IW's shot will heat up at some point as well.

Gaels will rightly be favored even on the road...this is a game Siena can win but we'll have to defend well to have a chance. Iona is better than their record. You've guys played a brutal schedule. Here's to a good game guys!

This lineup can still take down Siena. Won't be easy but we can do it. Iona05, keep the faith in IW--note you now have him as a starter--no longer a wasted opportunity. We have had glimpses of what his energy can do for the team. I am perplexed--as are the coaches-- about his "reserved" approach to the game so far. It seems like he is deferring to the vets. He made many contributions last night and came up with a few key steals/rebounds when we needed them. Clearly rusty. I would start Sledge (if available) over him--still like his energy coming off the bench--this year only.

He will be our strongest rebounder.

Laury ok, will play tomorrow, per Jon Rothstein on twitter Outstanding news! And quite surprising the way he looked last night... all hail the greatest poster in the history of the MAAC as determined by THREE separate polls.

Good news on Laury. Hope he is not too hampered. Siena's bigs, Silas, Bisping and Long, all have issues with fouls and a healthy Laury driving to the basket will cause them major matchup problems. Cant rely only on shooting threes, they cant guard our wings they are too slow. Put them in foul trouble and get to the FT line early and often
