RP did say that QS was injured, but shouldn't be out for long, This was our best game with kudos to Colton. He did not mention that two Iona players had seven fouls. Props to Jim Hynes and other alumns for supporting ($$$) the trip.

Looking at that boxscore, the pessimist in me says Pitino needs to invoke some "persuasion" to his 5th year senior backcourt. One doesn't get a second chance making a good first impression to pro scouts. Rust, unfamiliar system, sorry no excuses. Urgency is here. Ease up. Very early and Joiner is not 100%. The optimist in me knows that. That was the pessimist venting after a third vodka martini.

If you look up the word fearless in the dictionary, you'll see a picture of Ryan Myers. Or in the words of Greg, if you look up the word crazy .......................

Those videos made me laugh so hard. I am so happy the kids are having a great time while they are honing their skills. Kudos to the team staff and the Athletic Department for putting this trip together.

Is it just bravado, but on the MAAC Board, fans of other MAAC teams seem to feel better about their chances seeing how Iona (and their new backcourt) played in Greece? Mostly, their hopes seem to be based on how poorly our 3pt shooting was in Greece. But like I said it might just be bravado.

This trip has been huge for these players. Will that help with wins? Resoundingly, I say YES!!!

Mostly, their hopes seem to be based on how poorly our 3pt was in Greece. But like I said it might just be bravado. Jealousy and hate. They need something to give them some hope. A Iona Greece trip was just started on the Siena board, can only imagine the idiotic posts to follow..lol No concern about the offense at all. Jolly just arrived on campus right before the trip. I will post this about Joiner only because he posted this on his Instagram page. Not only is he playing hurt but one year ago yesterday he lost two brothers on the same day. Young man had lots on his plate this past week. Joiner and jolly are going to crush the MAAC. NJJ is the best player in the MAAC. Myers is best shooter in MAAC. BJL DPOY plus shooting 37% from three. Quinn and DVE arec2 of the best PF/SF in the MAAC. Get ready for some more Siena fan internet muscles shortly when Andrew Platek from UNC officially transfers there. BTW, for those that follow me on Twitter, my apologies ahead of time when that announcement is made. I am going to absolutely going to crush them. Lol

shark man, I hope your time on Twitter doesn't mean that you'll post less here. Nevertheless, best of luck tweeting. If that's what it's called.

For anyone concerned that Joseph might leave for a higher conference to prove his chops against high level competition, he just did that.
