If that is the case shooter - you will need to find the bright spot and post it here….. like some others expect What is the issue with some positivity before the year even starts? Now, in your mind, they can only lose 2 games in the ooc, including an ACC school, or they suck. 6-3 or 5-4 means we doomed? Let's not watch anymore games? I liked what I saw with brick during the maac tourney run. He is one of best players back. Why not have hope?

Well yeah kind of…. the OOC is just that bad. You come out at 5-4 then yeah you are a mediocre team at best.
We have become so dejected and so used to losing that 15-14 would be an amazing year to some.
What do I consider a good team? The 2006-07 team - that is what I want and no I won’t be jazzed about a 14-16 (2021 team).
I guess your right the ONLY time we really have a chance to be excited is the offseason because they are 0-0
Chuck Martin .258 Jeff Bower .450 Mike Maker .224 John Dunne .402
That is why so many people look for the slightest thing to hang their hat on all the time - our standards are non-existent.
Hey maybe I never see Marist win 20 games again or maybe they never get back to the NCAAs BUT that is what I want and expect year in and year out.
Sure we get a great game or two but no consistency. Yeah we has 3 nice days last spring, but that was an apparition - and that 13-20 team lost it’s ALL-Everything…. I do not see ANYONE on roster who can fill that.
I have not seen anything from Dunne that tells me he can get us to NCAA and that is the goal. We are treading water and never getting any closer to the shore.
So many of us are negative - and we will probably be that way until one of these teams makes us change our tune.
It starts Monday - yeah Army is a MUST win in my book

It’s ok you just keep going through life as a complete loser Having hope for a new season makes one a complete loser? Not calling a season over if they go 0-1 is a complete loser?

Not sure how you tied petagay being a complete buffoon and loser to the Men’s team going 0-1
Buy Yankee if you don’t feel that the Army game is a must win that is fine. Some people have standards others give out participation trophies.
I am not going into season blindly thinking we have turned a corner - after what 15 consecutive losing seasons the team needs to show me something, anything before I have “hope” that we are heading in right direction. Blind faith is not enough.

As far as the Army game I am not hoping they win … I am expecting them to win
At end of the day Yankee I hope you are right and that your excitement is proven correct

Blind faith is not enough. But, I see no reason to dredge up what bad could happen when the league was decimated with talent loss. We literally have the best player back who was in maac tourney game. Last year's champs have 1 returning player. We have Brick, a few other good returning players and some nice new players. I think we are going to see a great year from Cooley. Plenty of reasons for hope

So if this group can change that tradition - GREAT But it's almost like you are ignoring this is almost a completely different situation. Marist got to maac final first time in their maac tenure. Transfer portal and nil has decimated the normal maac powers. Iona has ONE player back and lost their HOF coach. Siena has some potential, but depth looks really crappy and the pg was a blah backup last year. Rider does look good on paper. I don't trust the coach in maac tourney. Marist has the best player returning from the maac championship game, and he played well most of that run. They have a coach who has a style that has made noise in MAAC tourney before. They brought in 2 bigs who were pretty highly regarded coming out of high school. We have maybe the best returning 3 and D guy in Cooley. We brought in a highly regarded new assistant. They have a couple freshman coming in who can make a nice impact. Hell, even the walk on from Tennessee is rumored to be killing it as a potential dead eye 3 pt shooter off bench. If he actually contributes, marist has a lot of potential

I didn't make it to the event the other night but I've been to a couple practices. Collins is the real deal in my opinion. Collins will/should eventually be the starting PG and Brickner should play off the ball. Though after speaking w Brikner he wants to play on the ball. Price can really shoot the ball well for a big. Allen soild big inside. Salton will be a strong role player. Daughtry has become even more athletic and stronger. Sulack will get plenty of shot opportunities, not off the dribble but in catch & shoot situations. This team is balanced but is missing an athletic defensive guy that doesn't need the ball, imo. Team defense is the focus. Once they build chemistry, they will be competitive. Coaching overall will be solid.
