We were outmanned and outsized, but we played with a big heart. Really proud of the effort. Marist, imo, is better than what a lot of people think, but we'll be at home and that should be a big help. It's always your opinion you don't need to tell us imo coach 59 |

In case you really want to know and are not just stalking me, I'll say that over the years in following Iona BB, that's the way it seems to play out. Later, rather than sooner. So, come Wednesday night and I arrive at the HAC not expecting to see JB playing and find him ready to play, then I'll be ahead of the game. That is, until EP tells me that ........... is hurt and wont be playing.  |

You'd think in Colorado with this altitude and a short bench they would not press all game, it makes no sense. begaels, what you say makes a lot of sense in most cases. However, chances were slim to none that we were going to knock off a ranked team, on the road and playing down two starters. So I'm sure that TA figured that we'll defend the way we usually do and use it as a learning experience. In fact Idan Tretout, in the post game interview, said that in the first half our press caught them off guard. We scored 37 points in the first half and 31 in the second, probably because as you pointed out, we were exhausted. At least, that's the way I figure it. |

I think the way you put it makes sense, as opposed to others who only responded to personally insult me. Glad there are nice people here to chat Hoops with! |

begaels, don't take responses personally. People who post here are really nice people. Continue to post and I think you'll end up agreeing with me. A belated welcome, and if you feel like it let us know your connection to Iona.

Would this game be considered a ‘Buy’ game? Did Iona get compensated with a guarantee?

Iona prominently on the wrong end of Cody Williams highlights at tonight's NBA draft.
Williams was the 10th pick by the Utah Jazz.
