So what's worse?

2012: go up big early, lose at last second
2013: dig a huge hole early, almost come all the way back but still lose

 

[GMU-B]

These refs call every ticky tack foul for the last 12 minutes and then don't call a clear foul on Sherrod!!

Nice effort there in the 2nd half. Good to see

Hey J2...watch the backdoor cut...ugh

He gave up not one by two straight layups. Can't wait to get Copes back Saturday. Oh, well, hopefully this is a reminder to the team that you have to play all 40 minutes. Proud they fought back, but can't dig such big holes and expect to win.

We lose...senior laden team that can't execute and a coach whose stubborn ways cost us another.

 

[Quentin Daniels]

This is where we need to make our run. Unlike some people here, I can't root for my alma mater to lose.

Maybe not directly, but you sure do spend a good deal of

Terrible possessions to end the game there. Fitting, considering that's how we are used to playing now. Can't dig yourself that big of a hole and expect to still win the game.

So we've now played 5 good halves of basketball this year. Hope the kids are finally ready to learn from the loss

Outstanding effort by the Patriots in the second half to make it close.

Let's not discount Princeton's crowd in that arena.......

Seriously, Jim, just go away. You are honestly the worst kind of fan. Rooting against your team is pathetic enough, but now you are chastising fans for pulling for their school.

I'm not chastising anyone -- merely pointing out the reality that beating Princeton shouldn't be so stressful. They can't even offer athletic scholarships. We should wipe the floor with them.

You, however, seem to delight in chastising me and defending the person who gets paid to coach our team.

Seems your anger is a little misplaced. But that's OK. I can handle it.

To be fair to the Princeton students, who would honestly want to come see the Patriots play other than us masochists?

 

[KAOriginal]

When TOC is sitting around the A-10 table and the other ADs are talking RPI killers in the league...does he realize they are talking about him now?

 

[JimP]

Win the next two at home Mason, and maybe I'll regain some enthusiasm for the season. I am a masochist though...I keep coming back.

 

[Quentin Daniels]

Ever notice how good coaches seem to inherit good players and lousy coaches inherit lousy players?

Jim, we are not — nor have we ever been — the world-beaters you want us to be. We were 7-point underdogs on the road and playing without three players tonight, so stop acting like this was some kind of pushover game we were supposed to win in a cakewalk.

I'm not pissed we lost the last two games, but I am upset that we lost them in the manner we lost them. The players AND the coaches need to know it's not acceptable to play that poorly. And, yes, it starts with Hewitt, since he is at the helm.

That said, I will be at Saturday's game with my wife and kids rooting on the team. That what we as fans do, even when things aren't going well.
