Moving forward for next game, what kind of team are we supposed to be? It's 2 years and I have no idea if we are a defensive team, offensive, pressing team, inside team , 3 pt team.... Even when we started out under Cluess there was a plan, I don't see a plan in the recruiting or the results of games what exactly we are . Bahamas could be a mess. |

Worse places to be a mess in I guess. |

Gotta beat Tarlton St. they are 0-4. We will be underdogs against Rice and Indiana St. |

Gotta beat Tarlton St. they are 0-4. We will be underdogs against Rice and Indiana St. Baylor blew out Tarleton the other night. On the ESPN+ broadcast the announcers mentioned numerous times that Tarleton was missing 6 of their top 7 players to injury. Not sure how many will be playing in the Bahamas. Billy Gillespie is a good coach. |

Well, we've been missing our starting PG all season, so there's that.

The trip might help the team pull together.

You might want to add Rupert to the question Rupert was awol second half. Hopeful Barr is not injured. I think I saw Winborne on the bench. He is being set up for failure in that offense |

The game was over just 7 min in. Barr didnt play at all and Rupert only played the 7 minutes, and he gave guys who have struggled or have not seen minutes lots of run because honestly there's no difference between losing by 20 and losing by 40 at our level any more. He did that because he thinks it will help us in the long run. Hopefully it does. |

Flat out embarassing. I miss Pitino. I don't miss the scumbag!! How could you not miss Pitino? He got players to come to Iona that we were never able to get before or after. We played a very good schedule, in big arenas, we had an ATEN team come to New Rochelle. Yeah, he wasn't an altar boy, but all that mattered is we won a lot of games and made the post season every year. What we now have is an embarrassment for a program. Sad. |

We never played once at MSG (yes I know one game was cancelled due to covid). |

Too bad you're not the coach. He hit a 3 and got a block, why play him? You can make an argument that the coaches thought that he was showing up his teammates. |
