It's my understanding that this is not the first time that Hartwell has done this after a game.

Not that I’ve seen, after tweeting I thought a little harder and may have remembered Otis once but this was unique. It’s clear he’s looking for another way to score once getting into the paint. These reps being a foul line shot fakes into a jumper. His tool bag is impressive.

I mean, if we had a dead eye consistent shooter, we would have blown them away. We were 2-11 from 3 in the first half and they were all pretty much open looks. But we don’t.

Kolek could be that shooter.

If that team wins a conference title, I’ll cut my left nut off and never talk basketball ever again. They played awful. The game before, they gave up 51 points to a player on UMass Lowell.

Still, they probably would’ve beat us if they didn’t shoot like crap. And give me a break with the triangle and 2 making offense hard for us, DP. There’s a reason no one plays that defense ever.

I don't disagree that they looked bad, but I hope these boards are going to hold you to the left nut promise if they do win their conference!

I think the reason there is so much discussion about Mar is because we realize that he’s probably the key to being a 7-10 or 3-6 A10 team.

It was shown last night that we are still thin up front and if we play quick athletic teams we’ll need to have an answer because Calixte and Odoro can’t really play that style.

if mar give us solid defense and 10 points off the bench this team is probably doing things we wouldn’t have expected.

I also think it’s mental. He’s passing up shots and isn’t coming close when he’s wide open. I thought the seeing the little hook go through on a good move might be a turning point but he clanked his next two.

I’m ok with Dave giving him some time because he’s a smart player. But I’m not exactly sure how long that leash should be and what does that look like to other guys who aren’t getting the same time to work through their issues (JDS)

I don't think we have to take things so literally. I'd settle for the right nut.

I accept the terms of your offer.

Your best bets to remain ungelded appear to be Sacred Heart & St. Francis, picked second & third respectively. The former gave up 106 to Providence and the latter 100 to Richmond.

Go Sharks!

 

[Mason32]

Any update on Kier return?

If anyone's on left nut watch, LIU is 7-7 (5th place) in their conference.

Last year, we would have loved to have been 3-0 even with a crappy schedule. This team is learning how to play with each other. Justin's return will make us even more whole. I still do not predict a top 4 finish for this team in the A-10, but I am loving what I see regardless of who we're playing. Watching Mason hoops is fun again for the mean time ....

You sure switched up lol. Sheesh

 

[sleeperpick]

we have such a negative fan base. I guess this is what 10 years of non-dancing feels like. Folks, it's about time you start changing your bad attitudes, we actually have a good team this year. This team will indeed make some noise. We will get BETTER throughout the year when we add Kier.

All of you naysayers 2 weeks ago were asking how we would score 60 points. Well, we scored 80 last night.

Yea real good team

He’s too busy on the politics board talking about guns and how homosexuality is a sin. Would be fun if he cut his little balls off though

You really are a sick, disgusting person.

Hey @mkaufman1 didn't you mute this clown before? He deserves a ban for being a spiteful punk.

Clearly he can't read. I implied our success this year hinges on a healthy Kier.

It is actually my little balls on the line. I basically said at the time that LIU sucked and that our performance was unacceptable, despite winning.

I’m glad you deleted your other post. Being anti-homosexual at 50 isn’t a good look man. Gotta be accepting at some point in your life. Gotta go open the bar be back later

Matt Kaufman is a great guy. I’m positive he never muted me. We re having some beers tomorrow. “22,22,22”

nope, have many gay friends and co-workers, and not anti-homosexual....nice try though....I was merely pointing out at rumor I heard, but probably posted it on the wrong thread. Since I deleted it off the recruiting thread, I will not hide and post what I originally posted (see below). I can see why you are getting defensive, because perhaps it's true? I mean, I have never seen you with a girl...so it must have some credence, don't you think? it's cool if you are because there is nothing wrong with it, it just explains A LOT. I mean after all, with your $500 yearly donation that you borrowed from your parents, you think you have a voice and sit behind a message board with blistering rhetoric that you hate our coach so much.....

"I heard from my source in the gold room that your boyfriend entered the transfer portal too. Might explain those lonely nights posting on the message board, or those exhausting bartender hours."

 

[mkaufman1]

Ugh you guys

I’m locking the thread.
@p8triotfan4life and @sleeperpick stop the bullshit and potshots. Not the place for it. Second time in a week I’ve warned you guys, calm it down. We are all mason fans.
