I want to see more McKenzie. He's not very exciting, but I think
that's what this team needs

Oh I'm watching alright. I want to point to last year was still
mostly Pikiell's guys.

season for certain

nice win for UML. they deserved it. maybe weve hit bottom.
lots of games/time left to sneak into the tournament and maybe
pull an upset.
hard to see how it can get worse. PS vermont beats albany.
GO SB

We could easily be 1-6 in league play, if we lost 1st 2 games
against ME and Hart. I’ll say it just one more time; overall,
this team has more talent than last year’s team, imo. There is
little consistent flow on the offensive side of the ball, we
make too many panic mistakes, the lineup seems consistently
haphazard and capricious, and the FT shooting just plain sucks.
Coach has taken 1 giant step backwards this year, and we
desperately miss ‘ol Woodhouse, who was such a stabilizing force
last year.

Horrible loss. This team is deeply, deeply flawed. Boals
succeeded last year due to Pikiell players especially
Nyama/Yeboah and most importantly Woodhouse.
His recruits have not done much of note with the exception of
Cornish. Iroegbu is an OK player but would not be starting on
most AE teams. Saintel is a solid depth player. So far the
freshman class has disappointed- with the exception of Olaniyi,
not sure if you can say any of them have had an impact. Even
worse is the fact that I feel several have regressed from the
Pikiell era- Sturdivant and Sekunda have not improved. The free
throw shooting has been downright embarrassing all year- that's
gotta be on the coaches. Only reason this game went to OT was
our horrible FT shooting.
Obviously, he's not going anywhere but this team needs a LOT of
help. Next year is a big year for him as the team will be
largely composed of his guys at that point. Stony Brook is a
very good mid-major job so we should not accept mediocrity.

our starting big had a goose egg for o-boards, in 34min. a
commentary on where his priority is???
petras? 3 in only 11min. why not experiment, keep him in the
paint and maybe we get a few putbacks.
this saturday night- i expect a steamrolling from albany.
that'll be nice in front of the home crowd.

Well...amid a long series of poor performances since the Norfolk
debacle, this was probably the worst. I think a lot of you were
there already, but this one shifted my brain to next year. This
team, for whatever or numerous reasons, seems cooked.
So in that spirit of looking ahead, my Silver Linings:
Good to see Olaniyi get back to having a pretty solid game. I
say start him and play him 20 plus minutes from here on.
And...Mackenzie had a very solid game. He's not a scorer and
he'll need to become at least an honest threat, but he played
some solid defense and distributed the ball smartly in ways that
no other SBU player can. He's got work to do, but I think he
played more within himself and showed what he can bring to the
team.
To add, Ochefu needs to play. I know I don't know anything about
all that goes on during the week, but I'm ready to say these
three freshman need minutes and experience to build for next
year. Yes, even throw them to the UA and UVM wolves this year
and let them get stomped. Give Yeboah his 20-30 points a game so
he's a first-teamer. UVM ain't losing again until the NCAAs
anyway, so what's it matter...
