Game 14: AT Saint Joseph's University, Thursday, January 3rd, 7:30 PM, CBSSN

[sleeperpick]

Quit lying to try to antagonize people. Really... what do you get out of that? We got 1 first place vote and finished 4th in the A-10 pre-season poll (so, no...we didn't get picked one or two in most A-10 pre-season polls). St Joe's had like 4 first place votes and were 2nd in the A-10 pre-season poll.

Are we just using the A10 poll?! or we doing 3rd party polls?

Regardless of polls, Saint Joe's had an RPI of 102, and we just curb stomped them in their own house when they were favored by ~7. Great great win.

Somebody check on DJ3. He might harm himself.

In the official A-10 preseason poll, the only one that counts, Saint Joe’s was 2 and we were 4.

And we just kicked their a** by 25 on their court. All you naysayers can officially suck a big fat one.

I don’t care what conference you’re in, if you win by 25 in a conference road game, there is no poo-pooing it.

Oh he’ll respond don’t worry. As soon as he gets out of his meeting with Brad Edwards and DP.

I have no idea who wrote that first one, but that Dayton Daily News poll has us 2nd and St. Joes 3rd...not exactly a lot of separation between the two teams.

Can someone confirm if this is the biggest point win on the road since joining the a10?

In conference of course.

 

[GSII]

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say, we are gonna kick even more a** next year with Hartwell as our PG. That kid is gonna be awesome. We only lose Otis, Grayer is pretty much already gone, so we are halfway into seeing next season.

I don't think we've won many road games...but it'll have to be a close call between this and one of our Richmond wins.

Actually, the second closest road win was against St. Louis in 2015-2016 92-79

Didn't Martelli say we didn't belong in the A10?

Who are you and why are you being positive?

He’s right. We’re too good. We deserve better.

He probably didn’t even watch I believe the other day before I reblocked him he said he had seen a couple games this year.

 

[Bricker]

Kier had 18pts, 14 rebounds, 5 assists, and 0 turnovers in 35 minutes.

#Star

Impossible. He was a 2-star recruit that even JMU didn't want. His points don't count.

 

[GSII]

Im always positive.

 

[sleeperpick]

Always great to beat Martelli. He’s the hitler of the A10 with how he highly he thinks of himself

Nice to see Dave stay with Calixte in the second half. How much longer before Dave is starting him though. Not sure how much we can start Reuter and be successful.

Maybe mason wins those early season games with Calixte.

 

[Petey Buckets]

Single game plus/minus numbers are always a dangerous game, but:
Calixte +13 (leads the team)
Reuter -5 ("leads" the team)

It's 64-53 at the 7:48 mark, so I might have to eat this later, but Calixte has been unquestionably better.

Love the effort tonight. Close it out boys!

Calixte led the team at +27 tonight. Reuter was the only scholarship player in the negative at -5. Reuter 4 minutes, AJ 7, Calixte 10 in the second half. Calixte was 5-7 and a much better matchup for SJU's bigs.

Kier with the most absurd statline of his career - 18 points, 14 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, no turnovers in 35 minutes. 7-12 from the field, 2-2 from 3.

Mar still not all the way there but he's fighting like hell. Hit a turnaround jumper in the first half which is a great sign - hasn't even been taking shots that aren't wide open recently. Need him to look for his shot more.

Joe's 18-52 from the field and 7-30 from 3. Where in the world did this defense come from?

Otis with 7 dimes - his shot still isn't there yet but he's facilitating like a wild man.

Phil Martelli, shooting up in the middle of the night, wide awake, a cold sweat plastering his fivehead, muttering "Ian f*cking Boyd" over and over again.

 

[patriotchild]

Mason wins by 10. GMU 62, St Joes. 52. St. Joes has been struggling offensively lately, a lot of their scoring goes through charlie brown who when is off starts forcing up a lot of shots. I'd like to see Mar and Kier guard him most of the day. St. Joes isn't a great 3pt shooting team and they don't have a big post presence. I see Kier and Reuter having a great game

This was pretty spot on. Except they outdid it for you. Clap clap clap

I absolutely love seeing Mason win. I hope I’m wrong. But I still think DP is a joke.
