Agreed but remember Cremo his freshman year missed the front end of a 1 and 1 to win the game.  And also missed a layup to win the game. He had several others his sophomore and Jr years. I'm just pointing out that it started as a freshman and continued.  

Healy is being asked to do way too much right now.  You can see it in his legs.  He’s exhausted.  I’ve got zero concerns with him.  

They need a PG and they need one now.  Clark is a 10 minute guy for me.  That’s all.  

Having Healy run the point and trying to be your sniper?  Never gonna work.  I’m torn between going and grabbing a juco or the best four year guy you can get.   With a four year guys, it’s asking a lot for a frosh. But I like four year guys.

Where the heck has this Campbell been the last 2 years? Did Jordan beat the Monstars and Campbell got his game back? Little too late...lol.

Anyway, lost to a veteran team...with one of the youngest teams in the country. Why is anyone surprised?

Here we go again.  Where were you when they beat #2 SBU and destroyed #3 UMBC? This is a REALLY young team. Your fire Brown bit is dumb. Let it go.  He's not going anywhere unless they suck for 3-4 years straight. 

After the 0-5 conference start I thought they wouldn't win more than 2-3 conference games.  Now that they have won 6 I feel good about the future.  Next year should be even better but I'm mostly looking towards the year after to be a true contender.  

de Sousa had a really rough game tonight.  As MRSGDG said, Dunn did an unbelievable job on Healy.  Just blanket defense.  Gave him hardly any room.  I didn't think it was a push off by Cam in OT and he hit that step back 3, which would've been big.  It looked like after Twyman's 3rd three he ran down the court staring at Brown holding up the 3 fingers.  I might be wrong but looked like it.  I remember his comments after he left and Albany lost in the first round of the tourney.  Wasn't cool. He had a career high 9 points today.  Ha!

I'm happy for Campbell.  He needed a game like this. 

Team inexperience really showed once again today.  

On to the next one.  

 

 

What were his comments? He is a reserve player off the bench at best.

I don’t think anyone is saying to fire Brown. If you’re going to give the staff credit for good wins against SBU and UMBC you can criticize the staff for a pathetic home loss to Maine and a 22 point blown lead. High fiving Dunn with a smile on your face at the end of regulation left a bad taste in my mouth.

Correction not Maine, New Hampshire either way both horrible.

Truth... This is exactly how I see it... Healy hitting wall as he's asked to do way to much.

He has said Brown and staff should be fired in other threads after bad losses.  No one else has.  Absolutely agree that the staff deserves criticism this year as I think they've made mistakes and I think they've been out-coached in a several games.  I think yesterday they continued to try and force the ball to Healy when it was obvious he wasn't going to get any room.  I'm no coach but maybe try to use him as a decoy to draw more D and set up some plays for other players off of that.

Him and another player who transferred out (I think McKay?) were both tweeting stuff after UA lost a tourney game.  I think it was the first round loss to a bad Hartford team when they made a ridiculous amount of threes.  Can't remember exactly but it was something about Karma for Brown. Guess maybe he felt he was forced out the door and didn't like it. Brown was right though.  He's been a 10th man most of his D1 career and 8th man this year.  Just search "Twyman twitter" and you should find the posts about it.

This is what I was talking about in the other post about high fiving Dunn after his missed shot at the end of regulation.  I know it might not be a big deal to some, but as a fan who just saw a 22 point lead blown, this isn’t a great look.

Only saw a few minutes of yesterday's game. Was watching LAX and then had an engagement. But say what you want about Hartford and its five seniors--IMHO they are going nowhere.  A first round AmEast knock out, not out of the question;  but two wins noway. 5 guys played 180 out of 205 minutes yesterday with a sixth man getting about 20 and the seventh 5. Cannot win like that against good teams vermont, brook, umbc, and maybe even umassL. I'd even bet on our youngsters, if we happened to meet up with them again somehow.

This is what I was talking about in the other post about high fiving Dunn after his missed shot at the end of regulation.  I know it might not be a big deal to some, but as a fan who just saw a 22 point lead blown, this isn’t a great look.

I saw this live on the feed.  I had no problem with it.  It almost bounced around the rim a few times.  I think it was more a smile of relief it didn't go in.

I agree. Didn't think it was a big deal. Over the years Coach Brown has showed he is a very competitive guy. I am sure him giving an opposing senior a smile and a high five at the end of regulation doesn't mean he is ok with a blown lead and an eventual loss.

I also had no issue with the Brown and Dunn interaction.

You can see it on the replay. Happens at the end of regulation.

Healy is being asked to do way too much right now.  You can see it in his legs.  He’s exhausted.  I’ve got zero concerns with him.  

They need a PG and they need one now.  Clark is a 10 minute guy for me.  That’s all.  

Having Healy run the point and trying to be your sniper?  Never gonna work.  I’m torn between going and grabbing a juco or the best four year guy you can get.   With a four year guys, it’s asking a lot for a frosh. But I like four year guys.  

Agree about Healy. Asking him to score and handle is a lot. I've been curious if the long-term plan is to have Rizzuto take on more of the role of bringing the ball up the floor.

Long term plan is a point guard with a great handle and the ability to drive the lane, collapse the defense and dish for an easy bucket.  Clark has part of that equation, it's the rest of it that is the problem.  Healy and Rizzuto have an ok handle but if I am an opposing coach and see them bringing the ball up regularly, I am pressing them big time.  Don't think they can escape the press without turnovers.
