I just saw Wofford +5 on CBSsports[/quote] This game at this point is all over the place...Just saw one that has us a 2 1/2 point favorite with a Iona pick...Wofford is 2-8 against the spread last 10 OOC games... I have not made a basketball bet in over 30 years, but I have in past days made my share... IMO this game is tempting..... We average about 80 PPG......They are not within 15 points of that....Unless we have a complete breakdown in scoring they have problems. We beat them at home last year by about 17...We out rebounded them (unusual) by one of our biggest margin of the year...We will have the height advantage...Their offensive derives mainly from guards which for the exception of Casimir are smaller then ours... Cleveland State made it a point to concentrate on English with less concern on Casimir...I am sure Wofford will not make the same mistake...Expect big game from English...and Williams.... They have gained experience, but not much in added player value this year... Don't hesitate to haze me in case of a loss...But, I have learned over long years to withstand it from the best.

Wofford is favored by 2 per VegasInsider.com. I told you there was no way Iona was going to be a comfortable favorite.

Liked what I saw in the first half. Coach using his bench big time. Liked Casimir on defense, pushing Ellis into position. GO GAELS.

I posted yesterday that I thought Ellis would get involved today. Do like his O! Great to see Hines and Robinson out there too. GO GAELS!

My questions:
1) Where was Dublin in the rotation? 2) Why so much run thru Laury in the 2nd half? 3) Why so title IW on offense? 4) Why is my cup of coffee cold?

Can't remember when the Gaels looked this bad.

Can't remember when the Gaels looked this bad. They did not play as a unit and the staff did a crap job with adjustments in the 2nd half. Shit happens and they need to learn from this.

Can't remember when the Gaels looked this bad. Road trip to South Carolina for a 7am start? I take nothing from this game. Surprised they looked as good as they did in the first half.

OK, if you say so. They still looked terrible on both ends of the court. Do I think they are this bad? no, but today they were.

I don't buy into the 7am road trip excuse. We won't win many games with IW not into the offense. And a few dunking drills wouldn't hurt. Defense is as bad as ever. Last game that Dublin starts?

Backups were awful on both ends of the court. 2) Casimir is going to be very good. Bad (caught up in the air) T/O at key point in game. Only 1,970 points away from Joebird's 2,000 3) Which team flew cross country? 4) Did anyone see an IW sighting on the offensive end? 5) Wofford a good team was at home and killed us in second half. 6) Learn from it. Move on.
