Need to sweep the weekend. Jaspers in dead last, so hopefully we don’t make this one interesting.
Go Gaels!

Guaranteed to be interesting if, like last game, the coach rewards a player with the MOST PT, for this performance:
Minutes-37
FG-0-5
3pt-0-5
Reb-2
Stl-1
TO-3
Pts-0
It's a miracle we only lost by four.

This reference convinces me that when Tretout returns, we have a 6th man, first off the bench. Not because of his one game performance, but thinking his energy and explosiveness when he has a good outing. I’ve felt all along his 31 MPG didn’t make sense; 37 on Saturday with these results made no sense to me. Love the guy but thinking of the teams best interests… |

As is my prerogative, no offense, but I'm going with the theory that Tobin knows his team and knows who gives us a chance to win better than you guys do. Sometimes it doesn't work out.

One of the reasons he plays a lot is that he's a good defender, and at his height there's value in that.

Two things:
1. Is the Manhattan game on ESPNU? I see both ESPNU and ESPN+ listed.
2. From time to time, I've seen boxscores that list a plus or minus rating for the individual players. Do we have that or access to that?

Do we have that or access to that? Game is definitely on ESPNU. www.sports-reference.com/cbb/schools/iona/men/2024.htmlIf you click around the link above, you'll find all sorts of deeper dives into data, including cumulative plus-minus ratings etc. Be warned, someone obsessive like you can spend HOURS on a site like this LOL |

First off, I wasn't expecting the game to be on network tv, so that's a good omen. And, since I'm a big believer in omens, that tells me that Idan Tretout will play. The second part about spending hours on a site like that, you are definitely correct. And that just counts the time it will take me to access (hopefully) it. |

LOL! Hope you're able to navigate it. It really is a fun site. In fact, I'll probably pull some numbers from it and turn it into an Iota segment for the next podcast, which will come out next Monday.

Guy, it is a great site. Just a quick question for anyone. One category shows an offensive rating and a defensive rating. While it's kind of obvious that the higher the offensive rating the better. But on defense is lower better?

One specific thing that I'm looking forward to on Friday night is the battle between the two rookie floor generals, Jayden Winston and JQ. While I have no idea how they did against each other in HS I believe I read that they were in the same HS league. Any info on this?

A post or promotion would be nice. The game is Friday. Not one post about it on Twitter or Instagram. I guess they are expecting a sellout regardless. Maybe a promotion to get students at a nationally televised game?
