I think that's a bit dramatic. We basically didn't have two starters. They choked like Nomar said but that's about it. Still have to assume Schofield is redshirting. There is no way a guy who had an offer from Illinois couldn't outplay. The offense sucks without him for sure. It runs through him because he is an excellent passer and is unselfish enough to look for an open teammate on the perimeter. I don’t think the Marist offense played efficiently for 10 minutes today. They better have everyone back next weekend for Fairfield. Having 2 freshman and 3 sophomores playing crunch time minutes is not a formula for success.

Relax fellas. Lehigh was picked second in the Patriot. A couple of plays in the final five minutes and they win the game. Their coach is really good as well. This is a really nice team. They were missing three guys and still could have won. I think you'll see by the end of the year that Lehigh isn't terrible.

I love how people can make an 0-8 team rated at the bottom of DI seem like they are Duke - why can't people accept that yesterday we choked, yesterday we were NOT s good team.

I don’t think this loss is that bad. Yes Lehigh hadn’t beaten a D1 opponent. Who did they lose to? Cornell, UNC, Penn state,providence, Monmouth, BC and then narrow loses to UMBC and SFU. They were picked second to Colgate.
Yes probably should’ve won but what do we expect to happen when we can’t establish any post presence with Allen out and Price getting 2 fouls in 2 minutes. I we have more Allen and Price on the floor then they’re not getting to the rim as easily. No Cooley, he’s clearly a big leader.
My biggest take away is need to be way better at FTs. We need to remember the number of new pieces and occasionally will have games like this, especially with 2 starters out.

I cringe when I see mentions of tournaments of any kind. This team has a long way to go. The guards need to learn how to take over a game. This is a guard's league. We're not going anywhere if they put it all on Allen. Please stop posting about anything except the next game.

Your issue is you CANT enjoy any Marist success until your hope of the AD getting fired happens. I agree he has to go, but Jesus, enjoy the best Marist team in 2 decades. Maac title game last year, first time ever. 2-0 in conference this year. But for some reason you are looking for a negative in EVERY post. I agree TM should go, but Jesus Christ, let it go. Stop with the bullshit of "I have expectations". We have done nothing since Smits left. He is like 55 now. You are a GREAT Marist fan, can you just enjoy the now?

Why don't you have ANY standards? Why do you accept failure, mediocre. I believe this team should have beaten UNH, ND, and especially a 347 ranked Lehigh - the talent is there. You find excuses and are absolutely thrilled with losing 4 games because it is better than years past.
What was to enjoy yesterday? We lost and you are still so happy.

How About we win conference first time ever before we worry about potential seeding in NCAA tourney? Jesus nomar

I’ve said before the season is not just MAAC play but how we compare against all competition.
You should honestly only come on here for MAAC games because as far as I can tell all the others are exhibitions for you
