Marist travels to take on the Wildcats (2-2) in the last game of the season opening 4 game road trip.
New Hampshire is led by their do-it-all senior forward Clarence Daniels. Daniels was named preseason first team all-AE Conference for the second season in a row. Last season Daniels averaged 15.3 points, 10.7 rebounds per game and 1.3 steals per game. Led conference and ranked 7th nationally in rebounds per game and posted a league-best 15 double-doubles, which was 15th nationally.
The Wildcats have a new head coach, Nathaniel Davis, who comes to New Hampshire after an 8 year run at Bucknell. New Hampshire is picked 8/9 in the Preseason AE Coaches Poll. The Cat’s wins have come at home this season over Curry (blowout) and Brown (18). Losses are at Syracuse and George Washington, by competitive margins of 11 and 12 respectively. Obviously, the Foxes will have their hands full.

Why? Must? Marist bigs Allen and price should do well. New Hampshire is a small team up front. I want to see Brickner starting soon.

BECAUSE - if we are better than years past - they should win this one going away.

Daughtry having a rough game. Air balling and more than a step slow on defense.

No - we get to hear how these games don't count and how we will be fine in the MAAC AGAIN. No but we should be disappointed and concerned that this team is NO different than last 15 years.
It will tell me that we are just mediocre AGAIN at best

Again Yankee some of us want more then just an ok team - my standard is and will always be the 2006-07 team - I want a team that can beat a Minnesota, Northern Illinois, Richmond, Old Dominion, Western Michigan, - type teams. Not a team that struggles again RPI of 250+

Max Allen is a very good player. Much Better than I thought he would be ... great footwork, scores strong in the paint & pass the ball well! Collins needs to dominate the ball more as PG1. Our defense is lacking, they need to communicate better.

I can't say enough about Allen. I thought we were getting a Menelik Watson type player to be honest. I was just looking at the stats, he's averaging 14 points in 19 minutes. He said he wants to be a candidate for POY and I thought that was almost delusional...but I can see it by the time he graduates.
This is the best team we've had in almost 15 years.

They are really no threat from the perimeter. Teams are going to pack the paint and make it tougher for Big Max.

1-10 from deep and not trying to find a spark with Farris? If there's an injury,ok... If not I'm not sure the logic of that
