That new logo sucks too. The old one was better.

It’s such a pleasure sitting here and watching this place clear out.

Every road win is a good win. But Jesus, Siena is bad. Important road win. Defense good, some nice shooting, depth is apparent. Good job foxes

No complaints tonight and another game I would like to have attended. A little choppy at first, but then they got on a roll. And Siena is terrible. I just turned it off, and they were 40% from the free throw line. The Brickner steal and mini-dunk early sort of sums up the game.

Siena finished on a 20-8 run in the last 8 minutes just to keep the final margin at 16. The Marist bench went ice cold late, not that it mattered.
Nice job but Saturday at Rider will be about 20 times harder.

Iona was up 17 at the last MTO against Niagara and it's now a 1 point game with 5 seconds left WTF

Siena not very good me thinks. How dare you insult Siena. They are the crown jewel of the MAAC. They play in a big arena. They have a lot of fans. They're going to the A10 because they're too good for the Mickey Mouse MAAC. (I'm being sarcastic, if you can't tell!)

Nice job but Saturday at Rider will be about 20 times harder. Tonight Cooley played 29 minutes. No one else played more than 25. Should be well rested. Keeping minutes low with the short turnaround on the road was another reason their performance tonight was timely and important. Thought they were very competitive on the boards tonight also. Dunne screamed “grab the ball” a couple of times when he thought the should have corralled the ball. Collins took a beating tonight. In the first half he was accidentally karate chopped in the throat on an offensive foul by the Siena player he was guarding. On the And1 in the second half two Siena players basically fell on him as he was coming down after releasing the layup. It’s a miracle he wasn’t hurt. Twenty eight point leads on the road are very satisfying. We have all seen them play down to their opponent in spots like this year after year. It was so refreshing to see them get after a struggling opponent from the get go and make it stick. Sulack gives them another perimeter threat to go along with Josh. I hope they continue to find minutes for him. That is huge for a team, as d2 mentioned earlier, is so dependent on the 3 ball. Keep it rolling Foxes!

Can't stand Siena. Nice seeing their fan base suffer through a miserable season. Wish we won by 30.

I saw you over on the Siena Board providing condolences. Fine, but no alumni is coming up with $800K to buy out Carm and I don’t think the College is either. They are probably stuck with him for another year. Their bigger problem might be attendance at the MVP. There announced attendance vs turnstile attendance is a joke. They play there in part because of their 4-5K season ticket holders. Only Siena and the MVP know for sure but their contract may include clauses related to minimum attendance and rental payments. Not to mention the complaints the MVP will start getting from their vendors about revenue drops. Do I think they will head back to campus. No way. But it could start costing Siena more to play “downtown” as the locals say. That will make it even harder to jettison Carm. Siena fans like to say college basketball is a business. I’m not so sure that applies to programs at our level none of which make money. But I do know for sure that the MVP Arena is one and they aren’t in the business of losing money.

No chance they keep Carm. As a competitor fan I would love it. But he has completely lost fans and his players. Marist bought out a couple coaches, Siena will. They can't afford to lose season ticket holders. They just can't. New coach will reinvigorate those annoying people.

They'll be playing on campus within 3 years. Jabir should charge the men's program rent.
