"Perhaps things are just starting to come together for this team. The Patriots have a lot of young talent, and even though a lot of guy struggled at the start of the season, everyone’s starting to make his contribution and add to a successful movement in Fairfax. This team isn’t shooting the ball quite as badly as it did last season, which is definitely a good sign, and the Patriots are the 23rd best team in the nation at keeping teams off the glass on the offensive end. Limiting second chance opportunities for the opposition has been Mason’s forte, and it continues to be dominant in that category."

Freshman Phenom
09 Dec 2016
Men's Basketball



As Temple’s best player rose up for a corner three, a Penn freshman raced from the paint, outstretched his long arms, and blocked the shot. Moments later, that same Penn freshman scored a bucket on the other end of the court to help the Quakers come very close to pulling what would have been a big upset over the Owls.

Don't get blinded by the win column just yet, the strength of our opponents isn't very good outside of UNI and PSU. We lost at home to a subpar Towson team and an awful MSM team. Albeit this is a different team now, I think we'll have a better guage of where we are midway through A10 play.

Towson is predicted top 3 in CaA but yes msm is absolutely horrible

 

[MasonSAE4]

Man if we had beaten MSM we possibly would've matched our win total from last during the OOC portion of the schedule.

Are they saying we don't stink as bad as we used to here? Admittedly, most of the paragraph is worded more positively.

Paulsen mentioned AJ Brodeur in that short clip shown earlier and seemed familiar and quite impressed with him. There's another short clip (I think posted by Pablo earlier in this thread about 3 consecutive baskets he scored against Lafayette. He looked polished around the basket and he was beating the defense down the floor. (hopefully, he won't be doing that too often against us or Paulsen will have a fit). Somebody likely we'll be doubling on which means we need to come out of the double team to prevent wide open 3s. We haven't done too badly on that so far this year, but if they have a couple of good 3 pt shooters, as Petey indicated earlier in his thread, we may have to suffer through some stretches of needing to score at a good pace to keep up with their 3 pt scoring. Maybe Penn's shooting will tail off in the second half like Penn State's did.

140 is the over/under according to Vegas Insider.

He looked like he was stained through a bed sheet at birth.

Looks like a mini-Eaglebank Arena. Just add the upper deck and it's the same...

Murrell and Abram in the starting lineup? Is Moore suspended?

That lineup makes no sense even if Jenkins and Moore are suspended AND Temara is still injured.

So, is there a way to watch delayed on espn3?

I feel like my relationship with Mason is jinxed. Kids are out with mom, I am finally going to get to watch a Mason game live and uninterrupted and the owner of the tractor dealership just calls to let me know they are delivering my new tractor at 2:00 today. It has supposed to have been delivered for weeks now and been a no show every time. He closes at 12:30, so I thought I was safe today. I guess I'll be missing the first half of the game. :-(

I actually do think ESPN3 archives the games, but I don't know if they archive every game they show. If you look on the site, you can see the "replay" tab. Hopefully the game shows up there.
