Intensity was there for back 2 back games. Very pleasing to see because we have seen glimpses only.
Great complete win. Only negative is if we made our layups, might have won by 30!

Like the moves Tobin has made: tighter rotation, Panzo off bench, Aranguren starting. Offense finally is starting to get his system, Defense getting better and better. Gordon not fouling and being able to stay on the floor is really making a difference. The biggest difference overall maybe that Shema is getting healthy, he looks much more mobile, and by him being able to stay on the court, we have an invaluable coach on the floor which is helping everyone else play better. I expect us to battle for the Maac title the rest of the way. This is a far better team than what we saw 2 weeks ago.

While there were glimpses of goodness, we did beat an average MAAC team missing 2 starters at home by 12. Canisius is not a good defensive team. Not nitpicking here, just being cautiously optimistic as we get ready to face a stronger opponent (Quinny) on their court. |

Yes very true, however Iona’s offense looked horrible most of the year, including against some not so great teams. There is so much better ball movement the last couple of games and I think some of the reasons I gave in the previous post have a lot to do with that. |

If you watch the replay many times IONA has a good 4 feet between player and defender. Kind of agree with broguy from earlier, I think if we made a few more open looks, this could of been a 25 point W! |

Farias is gone. No details given, other than it didn't work out, sounds like for multiple reasons. So, another ship for next year.

He had a short video from right behind the official scorer hyping Joel Brown. Thought he had upside from his "resume" but this explains Tobin recruiting multiple guards, HS and JUCO |

Gaels checked all the boxes tonight.
Best I've seen them play all year. Oz lifts this team to another level.
Upcoming road games will reveal what kind of team we have entering the MAAC tourney.
