I will be at game. Although Manhattan is my pick to win MAAC tourney, I see a nice Marist win tonight. I will go with 65-59.

One of these days they'll finish a half strong. Turn an 8 pt lead into a 10 or 12 pt lead instead of having it cut. They have to get better at that. Ed Weir is driving me nuts. He says "if they keep playing like this, it will be fun in Albany." Ed, they've been losing these games. They have to lwarn to win games. This game tonight should be a win. He must be losing his sight. He says Lewis' ball wouldn't have went in. How could it? It never had a chance because of the way it was goaltended. He's a great guy. Can't they just make him a sideline reporter.. lol. I like Eggink..

They may recruit smart student athletes, but it doesn't translate onto the court. They make so many stupid mistakes.

50% from the free throw line. Despicable 3point shooting. If it isn't one deficiency its another.

I though I actually heard Ed say a semi, almost, slightly objective criticism of Marist's performance.

They just need to keep bringing in more talented players than they're losing. I'm hoping a few guys opt out if they're not good enough to play.
TJ is a decent player, but on a good team he plays 10 minutes a game. They just need to bring in players that are consistent and bring more to the table. They try hard.. Great kids..

EW says it would be an incredible year if they won 5-6 games. They should have won 8. They had injuries but so did every other team. He just exudes a losing attitude. Nice guy but even Maker seems to get sick of his questions and commentary.

FTs have nothing to do with talent and missing them is inexcusable.

Really nothing to say here. They just don't have the shooters or inside players to compete for 40 min with the top or even middle of the league. 2 years with roster turnover, 4 years without it. There's really no debate about that. Of course that's if you believe in Maker. I do. If he does what I think he can 2 years till a top half finish with defections and 4 years without any.

FYI. That guy Jermaine Lawrence had never scored more than 11 points in a game before tonight in 47 career games. He went for 19 tonight though for his second career double digit performance ever.

Very disappointed. Marist was up after first half, but Manhattan probably played their worst half all year. Andujar had no points and they went 0-10 from 3, something like that. Lawrence was making a fool of Marist, literally looking for alley oop type plays every possession. 2nd half was just a beat down. No one on Marist really had a good game. About the only positive I have is I liked how McGlenahan looked at times. Truog fouling out after 13 minutes? REALLY Truog, come on. Lee made a few horrid turnovers. Not a good game.

Oh, one other positive. Best officiating crew I can remember in a long time. I don't remember questioning one call they made.

i see everyone played but Coil ,,something's going on with that ,, coach is trying to get him to transfer obviously..that goes for him not playing in blowout losses or wins either..a little unusual to say the least .not playing a minute all year..
