looks like we actually had more people in the stands last year on Thanksgiving Saturday vs Boston U:

Boy was that an ugly game, looking at the score and shooting %.
Fortunately, I've completely suppressed any memory of that one. At any rate, I'd be surprised if home attendance improves against the A-10 except for GW and any team currently ranked in the top 25. Casual fans aren't likely to pack the Patriot Center for the likes of St. Bonaventure, Fordham,etc.

We don't get vcu at the Patriot Center either, which is a tragedy. Not having JMU and ODU at home this year might actually hurt our overall attendance.

But maybe home games with UMass, Dayton, St. Louis, Richmond and GW will make up for it.

Miller said in the preseason that Ohio State transfer Jordan Sibert had separated himself as Dayton's best offensive player, and through seven games he's leading the Flyers in scoring, averaging 14.4 points. The 6-foot-5 guard is also shooting 51.4 percent from three-point range.

"He's very hungry offensively," Miller said of Sibert. "He's confident in his shot and he's not a one dimensional player. He's gotten much better at driving the ball to the basket. He got off to a little bit of a slow start but he's really found his stride lately."

And so has the rest of the Flyers' roster.

The biggest difference in watching Dayton this season compared to last? The skill level.

"We've got five guys on the floor now who can make a play," Miller said. "When we sub, we're bringing in guys that can make an impact. We're bringing in a guy like Vee Sanford who's averaging 9.4 points per game, or a guy like Jalen Robinson who had 17 points and five rebounds in a win against Cal. We're also getting good minutes from our freshmen --Scoochie Smith, Kyle Davis, and Kendall Pollard. Scoochie is playing close to half the game, and we don't beat Cal without Kyle and we don't beat Gonzaga without Kendall."

The A10 went 6-2 last night with the only L's being ours and St Joe's losing a Big 5 game at Temple.

Good job GW. Almost Masoned that one.

GW has to be laughing all the way to the bank since they manged to avoid a certain 4-star recruit and his coaching counterpart...

Oh, how I wish Mason and gotten Lonergan. Success at every level and has GW playing well in his 3rd year.

Lonergan is the anti-Hewitt in so many ways: hyper-intense, detail-oriented, obsessed about defense, and a hot temper to boot.

Of course, not many people talk about what a "nice guy" he is, lolz.

Almost! G Mas wishes they could beat Maryland! Dopes couldn't get any run on GW.
