The one team in the A10 that their guards are much weaker than ours and play less defense than ours... Kolek should absolutely eat this game... maybe XJ can get out of his never ending slump... maybe Polite can get confidence after finally playing against guards weaker than him!?!? We need to rebound defensively. Soriano is a standout on a really bad team and he needs to be managed. Not very fleet of foot so Oduro shouldnt get clowned, but he has probably 30 lbs of muscle difference than Baby Phat and he has a high motor. Calixte might be a pretty good option to bang with him inside for spurts. Mason win by 12. Dawn Hicks "tweets at the haters" and we temporarily move out of the play in game.

Lol not a bad analysis. Fordham doesn't even look like an A10 team from the way they are built etc with the exception of Soriano. Kid is a beast and I'm surprised he stuck around at Fordham. Their other players are pesky and annoying. I suspect they are also playing their guts out for the interim coach who has been around with Fordham for a long time. Maybe they look to double Soriano in the post and dare the guards to shoot.

Hopefully they don't underestimate Fordham because this is the same team that beat LaSalle and Dayton.

Hartwell starting over Oduro?!? Wtf

 

[gmubrian]

Are those home uniforms a dingy looking/yellowish white?

 

[tblack33]

Starting lineup is a head scratcher but Kolek and Javon looking crisp so far.

Anyone wanna explain to me why Jamal is starting? I know we need a PG but he hasn’t shown much this season to earn it...

 

[sleeperpick]

Kolek Oduro Hartwell XJ and Dady. Did AJ and Javon die? I get Jordan needed a rest but...

 

[sleeperpick]

Now the just as good polite Oduro dady Javon and Hartwell lineup

Even though we are up there’s not much to cheer about. Fordham is as bad as their numbers suggest and they are still hanging in there.

If the A10 killed the PIG this year for COVID reasons and we didn’t make the tournament I would die laughing. That Twitter account would be BLOWING up.

 

[tblack33]

Now it looks like we are playing Fordham. This is what I was expecting.

Polite has a lot of growing to do but he throws the crispest passes on the team. Rarely ever lazy with moving the ball.

Up 26, no eligibility to lose. Yet we haven't seen Henry. Shoot even Gadsden could use some experience. Still haven't seen any walk on but Jack this season. Is tonight the night?

 

[GSII]

Is TJ dressed?

 

[FreeGunston12]

Who the F is #25? Bill Rohland doesn't even know.

 

[gmubrian]

We win in a 32 point beat down. Paulsen was just trolling us with his quotes about this game.

 

[mkaufman1]

Big win, lifetime extension coming.
