Finally! This guy is a dud. Talk about backhanded compliments? Not stylish? Blah blah blah. However, just wins. I'll check out more analytics today and see if I can find one for "style". I wonder, did he write anything positive on the 2022 NCAAT? Repeat, NO MAAC team will ever reach as far as SP did, unless the Power 5-6 separate and have their own tournament.
Big game coming up with FF. Go Peacocks!

Peacocks seldom get their respect and when they finally do make it to the top of the power rankings, it’s paired with a quite condescending article. Io Pavo

Let’s enjoy our early success but remain cautious. We need to clean up some things.
Reid plays with great heart and desire, but his last three league games, 21 assists, 11 turnovers. Less than 2/1 ratio. Not very good. He needs to clean up his handle or it will come back to bite us. Right now, that would be my number one concern for how far we go. We will really be taxed on the road when the full court pressure is on. It is not an easy fix and there does not appear to be a better option on the roster. Let’s hope Coach Bash can find some creative solutions against full court pressure. If he can solve it, this will be a team with great potential. The amount of fouling we commit has been cleaned up and improved from earlier in the season. Maybe we can do the same with our turnovers. Hope so.

Wish we knew more about Hough status. Was he suited? We need his board effort. We also will likely not know anything about Zeigler until Friday game time. No point in trying to learn anything about Oumar. Gotta assume he’s gone for the year.

Thought I saw Hough on the sideline not in uniform. Agree, we really need him.

Hogue was there but not suited up. Hopeful we see him Friday.
Really worried about Zeigler. I’ve watched the play 4 times and can’t find a scenario where it’s not a serious injury. Hope I’m wrong. He didn’t seem dejected on the sideline and Bash was in good spirits in his presser so that gives me some optimism. We rarely get injury info unless it’s season ending so I’m going with no news is good news.

Our Kenpom rating stands at 196. Curious what preseason ranking was.
Iona at 178, a team we beat head-to-head. Lol…no respect. SMH

What's with Daly's comment that we are an "Unlikely Leader" in the MAAC conference? We have a good team and have been playing without Diahame, Tanksley and recently Houge. We are the Rodney Dangerfield of the MAAC.

SPC91, and to your point, Canisius had a higher NET than SP. I really dont understand the theory that Canisius is a good team. FF throttled them at Canisius. Thankfully, they have 'Spoon. I hope he has a lifetime contract. In my opinion, there isn't a dimes worth of difference between them and Manhattan.

No respect…no respect at all.

We are the Rodney Dangerfield of the MAAC. They say “unlikely leader” to cover up the fact that they don’t know shit from shinola and picked the Peacocks 10th in the preseason.

For a laugh, Siena was picked 5th. 😂

Don’t know the kid on Siena (Durugordon) but he may be a new stud that became eligible or back from injury just within the last five games. He scored 36 today in a win at Niagara and has two thirty point games in the five he has played with the other three in the 20’s. It appears that the Saints may be turning a corner to respectability. Hope not. I love seeing them getting their ass kicked more than any other MAAC team.

Dreamweaver, he transferred (again) from Austin Peay. He and a few others, filed an injunction to play. Won. He's the real deal, but Siena lacks a point guard. Today's game at Niagara was a total anomaly. They scored 60 in the second half. They average 60 for a game. They shot 62% for the entire game! They are the worse shooting team in the MAAC. Believe me, they fade. Maybe 6 wins in the MAAC? Having said this, it all comes down to the MAACT and who gets hot at that time.
