       And don't forget women's lax...yeah yeah I know. On the bright
       side (if there is one), instead of one and done in the NCAAs,
       perhaps they'll make a splash in the NIT and advance a few
       games.

       Lax i agree. Brenton was sleeping the last 2 games. I think his
       Fan favorite award went to his head.. My 9 yer old son even knew
       Black was going to be the one getting getting the ball the last
       14 seconds. Why didn't Pikell put two gurads on him and take the
       chance of him throwing the ball to the perimeter for a 3
       pointer????????Instead he makes the layup. Sad indeed.
       I hope we do better in the NIT....

       Can't win the big games.  Choked three of the last four years
       when they were the best team.  I think the "best in the
       conference/sweeping the awards" meme might have made them a bit
       overconfident.

       Lets not let this loss take away our pride. We are all
       Seawolves! It was tough to be yelled all sorts of crap by Albany
       fans. But that's basketball. Passion, talent, and a bit of luck
       is what makes College Basketball so special. Maybe our team
       didn't play with those three in mind but No reason to feel down
       about it. A loss doesn't outweight All the great times that we
       had throughout the season. Lets go Seawolves
       On to the NIT!  ;)
       For those that are still hurt. Stay away from the
       BasketballForum for now. Those guys are being ****s. It is what
       it is.
       If we keep winning regular season championships the day will
       come in which we make it to the NCAA and it will be more special
       then.

       Probably all kind of smack talk going on over at the Albanian
       and Vermont boards. I just want to make a couple of points.
       First, Pikiell's stock is going down. He was seen as an
       up-and-coming young coach who is going to be scooped up by a
       power conference team sooner rather than later. Uh uh, ain't
       gonna happen anytime soon. Not only hasn't he gotten his teams
       to the NCAA Tournament, but he hasn't even beaten a team from a
       power conference (let alone a Top 25 team). Not once in all
       these years.  He'll be around SB for a while. The other point is
       that hopefully SB can make an omelette out of this cracked egg
       by winning in the NITs and making it to Madison Square Garden
       for the NIT Final Four. THAT would be huge...bigger than "one
       and done" in the NCAAs. At the VERY LEAST, they need to win
       their first game in the NIT, which will be against a weaker team
       (SB should get a decent seeding). If they lose that first game,
       then there truly will be no joy in Pikiellville.

       I think a number of the SBU sport nuts are very frustrated now,
       not so much because they lost but because we all know SB
       Basketball is much better  then how they played last night.  I
       think 75 % falls on the coach and they other 24% on Brenton and
       1 % on the rest of the team.. Pikell should have done a better
       job on Offense and somewhat on Defense. yes, the second to last
       play of the game was the defense but, the rest of the game fell
       on the offense.. Why didn't Pikell let the boys throw more 3
       pointers the last 10 minutes of the game? Why was Warney so
       quiet? I don't know but the Brooks are a much better team then
       what they showed last night and i think Pikell knows there is
       tension in the air at the University and he should change some
       of his styles and let the boys just show there true talent.
       I think we go into the second round of the NIT, and Brenton will
       be awake for that !!!!!!!

       Hopefully we get a good seed in the NIT based on our previous
       visits and our record .    There will be some good programs we
       could face  from the power conferences.  Would need to win two
       straight at that level.
