The Green Machine a few times chanted, "OFFENSE! OFFENSE!" Thought that was pretty cool. Maybe it'll catch on?

i have no idea what the Mason Marketing BBall budget nor Bball Marketing strategy is.
But as an outsider they seem to be lacking.

Thursday, I got an email from Georgetown Basketball offering $5 tix for the next 3 game as those games are against opponents that no one will want to watch - St. Francis, Coppin State, and Wagner.

This should have been a $5 game

The marketing strategy that has proven to be the most effective at making gains in attendance and engagement is: Winning

Win, Win again, and then Win some more.

I only got to watch the last 4 minutes of the game but the box score says Emejuru went 6 for 6 from the foul line!

How about that for growth!

Guys we have plenty of time to debate scheduling in the offseason. It’s a great topic honestly and one that I hope Mason can improve at. Instead of discussing scheduling, why not discuss the game today. I know, boooo I’m boring. If you want to discuss scheduling we do have a thread for it and I moved the posts over. Please feel free to continue.

As far as the game today, Mason had 17 assists and 4 turnovers I believe Tony said. Yeah I know it’s against a d3 school but that is good. Also only gave up 7 offensive rebounds so that’s an improvement and points of emphasis.

It was a good week against cupcake competition.

When was the time Mason played 2 nationally ranked teams in the same OOC schedule?
This season's OOC is a vast improvement over last year's.

4 TOs is much improved. It seems like Skinn sees something in O’Connor to keep giving him reps as a Point Guard. I hope he adjusts to that role because someone needs to grab that spot and run with it. If he can be a competent 1 by conference with KD, Begg and Quigley filling in minutes as needed, that will go a long way to fixing our issues. Although it still scares me to think of him bringing the ball up against guys like Malachi Smith or Zeb Jackson (I suspect and hope KD will do that when it comes to those games. He might be erratic in the half court, but he’s been solid bringing the ball up against pressure so far).

It’ll also let us go really big: 6’4, 6’5, 6’7, 6’9, 6’11 if we wanted to.

I won’t really dissect anything about this game other than to say it was disappointing to see our two best shooters have off nights at the same time (1-5 from Anderson, 1-8 from Maddox). I hope that’s the last time we see that happen.
