Nice to have a laugher, may be the first one of the year. Shout out to Coach Arnold for righting the ship. This is our 4th 20 point win in this 7 game stretch, the majority of games have been laughers since we “flipped the switch”.

I thought last year was crazy but this year is positively weird. We went from horrible to good right after Crawford’s tweet. It appears to have woken the team up filled them with a resolve to play their best. Maybe all the crap we said on this board about how bad they were got to them too. Whatever it was the Gaels are back and fired up. A lot of credit also goes to Jelly

Defend, and good things will happen.
What an amazing turnaround this season. Credit to everyone on the staff, and of course the players. What the hell do the idiots on this board know.

We know thay what we saw before February was borderline garbage efforts. They sucked it up.. looked themselves in the mirror and clearly realized that too. Its not magic.

Actually, it kinda is, or every underachieving team would do it.

Frankly, I believe most board members expected the season to go the way the last 7 games have played out. I know I did. What with two pre season 1st teamers and 1 second team Member, given that we only lost Rickey from our championship 2018/19 team and picking up Jelly and others, how could we not be dominating the MAAC. Unfortunately, not all was as anticipated...

Ok I’ll admit it, I’m an idiot. I’m stupidly passionate about my alma mater and the basketball team. That passion sometimes results in knee jerk reactions that on second thought shouldn’t have been said. But I do know the difference between good basketball and bad basketball. Guy is right it all starts with team defense. You can’t have good defense and selfish play. The two don’t go together. Good defense will provide for better offense. Credit to all involved coaches and players and these board members who will always stand in support of our Gaels no matter what.

Great turnaround. We would have won all the close games if Cluess was coaching and they boys would have been playing like this much earlier. We also would be a better seed after getting #5. Ross has also found his sparkle not splitting time with Gist. Rust is off Jelly and he’s playing like expected.
We seem to be peaking at the right time though for tourney play!

I give Arnold credit for righting the ship but we all know TC is involved now in video capacity coaching them . So let’s be honest

Won’t be able to make AC bc of back surgery so guys represent (that includes you Guy get the Iona faithful rowdy). Let’s bring home #5 to Hynes. Another gold ball & nets. The way we are playing currently seeds mean nothing.
