Good thoughts. I hope we see the zone press this year too. They certainly have the length and now with more depth hopefully they can be more aggressive, especially in the OOC. Also, if I have to see handoffs and then flashes to the middle by Oduro I'm pretty sure I will break my TV, and I will hear @Patriotsince81 screaming from Northern VA.

You got that right! Additionally, if we see a lob over the top inbounds play I will no doubt be arrested for disturbing the peace. I know a few others who may share my cell, cue @tblack33 and @sleeperpick . DP said due to Covid he's had all the time in the world to think sh&t up and be creative. We'll soon see. One week and counting.

Northeastern shouldn't be very good this year... but who knows how good we are. bringing an entire roster back from a shitty team could go both ways really.

Mason by 6

 

[Herndon]

We're going to beat that a**. Mason by 12+

I’ll be changing my cardboard cutout to a giant middle finger if we haven’t come up with a single usable inbounds play this off-season.

Can we ask for brown paper bags to be placed over our cardboard heads?

If we suck this year I 100% will start a Twitter petition for it.

It has been a long long offseason, with debates about Dave, Brad and recruiting. I for one am really excited to see the season get underway, and hope that everyone can stay healthy enough to play as many games as possible. Hopefully we can get a clearer picture on where the program is headed after this season. . .

It looks like the game, along with the others in the tournament, is now on ESPN3.

Does anyone know if games on ESPN 3 are also shown on ESPN+?

 

[JimP]

Looks like ESPN3 streams separately and is free. May depend on what type of TV service you have.

I am slowly starting to wonder if we will play much at all this season as the cancellations start to roll in......just curious to see if it is the players not distancing and attending gatherings or is it external staff bringing it in the facilities.

Historically, it has been the former.

country said you can watch it on plus but it is separate. not sure how correct that is but we will find out

 

[GreenLantern]

Us 69

OT!

GL predicts an overtime game so you know it’s GMU basketball season!

 

[GMUYoda]

Alright... I'll be that guy... we start out well in the 1st half and build a nice 12 point lead going into halftime. Suddenly, Mason can't find a basket for some reason in the first part of the 2nd half and NE comes back and ties the game. Goes down to the final minute... but NE is able to pull out a victory.... and we all groan as we realize DP didn't fix some of our 2nd half issues from last year

NE 68
Mason 66

ESPN+ should carry the recorded game for free. You'll have to wait about an hour or so after the game has ended before it becomes available to watch.

Hey, Mason was in a position last season that it has never found itself before... the Patriots ended their season with a WIN! Keep it going strong!

 

[GMUgemini]

New prediction: Mason 0 - Northeastern 0.

NU postpones start of their season until Dec. 18.

A cancellation would help my marriage tremendously, because it didn't go over well last week when I told my wife we can't eat between 2 and 4 on Thursday.
