Can't have those long stretches of inept play and expect to win.

Win the next two, get to .500 and hope for a Christmas miracle that the team figures it out.

After 10 games though, it pains me to say that I doubt Mason has the horses to compete at the top of the A-10. But hey, St. Joe's did lose at W&M.

Paulsen completely out coached tonight, this program is done. Can't see us coming out alive after 2 poop coaches.

I don't understand how the team can shoot lights out on the road over the weekend but then shoots miserably at home. Certainly, Vermont is a better defensive team than W&M - but still, only Kier had it tonight.

Zero home court advantage. Poor defense, inability to execute under pressure, this team will not win a single game against the top 7 A10 teams this season.

If Otis had shown up tonight, we win.

As someone said, JDS needs to stop standing around. Maybe that is why he hasn't got much playing time.

Other than Kier having a career night, the other positive is this team didn't quit when down double digits late.

What is he doing to put his players in a position to succeed? Because right now I don’t see it.
That Vermont team was well coached but I don't think their players were better than ours. Paulsen def didn't set up the team to win tonight.

Kier played great and made up for Otis tonight. However, we got zippy from Greene. Additionally, our bigs of Reuter, Calixte and AJ combined for 8 points and 8 boards. (I will not count Mar as a big as my high coaching IQ tells me he is out of position...)

We turned the ball over 16 times, but they had only 5 steals.

We can't shoot 3's.

I'm wondering if we were picked to come in 10th in the A10 that I wouldnt feel as bad. hmmm. But we've now lost 3 buy games. ugh

Vermont coach had a plan to contain Otis and our coach had no plan to counter that. Other than Reuter, Mar being completely useless that was the story of the game.

We may be overlooking how good Vermont is defensively, and how good that kid Duncan is offensively. Guy was having a great game. At this point we are a solidly mediocre ball club. We'll win games against bad teams, but we will not beat any top 100 teams.
