Re: "Second-half struggles stump NU "/ RP's comments/ MBB MAAC Thread

Announced attendance was 2500 last night an uptick from 1,750-2,000 in the previous sessions.

I think the new Commish will tweak the Tourney schedule regarding seeding and the number of qualifiers. Also , why are we completing against the BE , ACC, A10, SEC , B10 during this time frame? The MAAC desperately needs to get back to the first weekend in March with a F, S,Sunday , Monday schedule structure . Who is going to attend mid-major PIG games on Wednesday and Thursday?

Vin, maybe if your son has any remaining eligibility he could suit up for X who need an emergency unit.

Dunne's team is within 3 with 12 remaining.
No one cares what the hell he's wearing.

Kudos to the Iona folks whom traveled well tonight to AC.

Kudos to RP for pulling off 14 connective wins without two key starters in Slazinki and Davis. They are the class of the MAAC. Go win a few games in the NCAA. Welch just said they are likely a 12 or 13 seed.
