I saw both Washington and AJ in each other's face. Dominique pulled at Washington and by that time everyone was on the court. No punches thrown You didn't see the ref thrown to the ground? No. How did that happen?

What I saw, tau, was AJ going back into the crowd and a ref grabbing him by the waist and AJ shook him off. I do not think that AJ knew he was a ref, he was facing forward and was grabbed from behind.
Go Gaels!!!

I'd be surprised if there were any suspensions.
The refs lost total control of the game. Complete shitshow. This is on them.
Desi and AJ talked shit all game, and Desi instigated again at the end. AJ showed up him, as we know he's not one to back away.
AJ did throw a ref off him but I am fairly certain he didn't know it was a ref.

We stole one for sure. In all of the Cluess years - I can't remember a game that we shot the ball that bad. Great loud, crowd tonight, however.
There may be bad blood between the teams, but the refs were a complete travesty tonight and allowed insanely physical play at one moment and then called ticky tack nonsense the next. They lost control of the game, even with the ridiculous techs. All of that def boiled over at the end. Suspensions would be absurd. No punches were thrown and I actually thought the coaching staffs did an incredible job separating the teams quickly.
Ryden was quick to stick his neck into the scrap -I'd love to see him play with that intensity. Maybe this will rile him up.

I'd be surprised if he didn't get a game, I agree I don't think he knew it was a ref, but that ref went for a loop!

Every game against St Peter's seems to set basketball back 75 years. Horrendous basketball. Yes, Iona shot and played like shit, but St Peter's "style" of play is so hard to watch. I hope to hell we avoid them in Albany.

Sherman and Kennedy were right on top of it. Both said immediately that it was wrong for AJ to provoke the matter and to get in the face of Washington.
I was concerned when I saw IW, with a walking boot, attempting to mix it up.
Amayo wanted a piece of anyone available.

Those refs were loopy all night. AJ does not deserve a suspension.
Go Gaels!!!

Forget about after the game

I watched the game on ESPN3 and I have to say that I can't stand Doug Sherman. He is the sports guy on CBS 6 in Albany and I always felt he was an Iona hater and a Siena lover. At the end of the game he accused AJ of bad sportsmanship. As if St' Peter's had nothing to do with all the cheep shots that were taking place the whole game. I've never seen AJ being a trouble maker before. He was targeted all night for rough play.

Horrible shooting night and terrible performance (especially by aj for 39 minutes) but what an amazing clutch steal and 3 by AJ and then an amazing pass, AJ is clutch, and this team has pulled out a few games they should never have won.
Refs were horrendous both ways and that is why the ending happened. I was at the game and just watched the replay ending 3 times. Aj and Dez got in each other's face and it appeared aj was more of a Jerk but the other kid wasn't innocent. As for aj tossing a ref all I saw was him trying to break away from who was holding him and that happened to be the spastic ref who went flying from his un athletic clumsiness. Announcers over stated iona being the bad guys in the end, Amayo went running around the other side to try to stop IW, not to get a spu player. IW was the jerk in the fight he was trying to instigate and had no business doing that especially with the boot. No punches were thrown and I honestly don't think anyone deserves a suspension but would not be surprised if we get some and that could cost us Monday night ( if it doesn't snow).

Didn't look like AJ instigated it. Boy Sherman was quick to blame AJ and go after Amayo. That came to the surface real quickly.

Amayo didn't immediately get involved. Someone said something to prompt it. That's what is needed to be known.
I suggest you guys steer clear of the MAAC board, as the resident assholes are fulfilling their fantasies by blaming everything on Iona. Desi could have been holding a "fuck off Iona" sign and they'd still blame Iona.
