Truly is a shame that amica and drumgoole are out.  Both would have made a difference.  Amica especially.  I think with solid pg play, this is a team no one will want to play come ae post season play.  

Sigh.  I love DK's energy but he has to start feeding us some injury reports. 

Neely with 11 points and 14!?!? rebounds? In 23 minutes?

Zoinks.

I fully understand Little is a freshman.  But he is not a division 1 player yet.  Always out of position on the defensive end and not a good offense players. Really needs to work hard this off-season.  

I don't think he realizes that the ball is supposed to go through the hoop and that you don't just get credit for hitting the backboard.

I heard that JUC was upset that GG wouldn't let him take a BM at halftime of the UNH game. 

But guess what I really know about the reason behind his personal decision?  Nothing... which is why I'm not here telling stories.

I bet Benson was heartbroken by the news......

If he isn't he sure as hell should be.

This program isn't interesting, successful, or notable enough to attract the casual fan.

This program needs every ClickClack it can get. Guys that sit through poor play and crappy weather every year (except one) to support the program.  Guys that give money to the department and that stuff their faces with horrible concession food.  Guys that go on message boards with opinions, trying to create any semblance of interest they can from a waning fanbase.

The ClickClacks are the only ones left.  Lose them and you have nothing and nobody....and a pretty $ienaty legacy when you go job hunting yourself when your contract runs out.

He shouldn't only be heartbroken.  He should be standing at the Western Avenue entrance with his lips puckered, waiting to kiss the ass of anyone dedicated and foolish enough to spend their valued time and money on a product that he helped kill.

Singelais reports that Joe Casale is moving on:

I have to say that some of the comments in the Syracuse game thread are not aging particularly well. Naming no names, but I’m wondering if a couple of members would like to weigh in after 5 more losses...11 in a row for those keeping count at home. It’s tough right now. I’d like to root for the team so that they get a win or two to reward them for their efforts. On the other hand, I don’t want some mirage of “we are turning it around” to cloud the dismal lack of success under GG. I’ve met him. Seems like a nice fellow. But you don’t get paid 300k to be a nice fellow. 

James Madison to the FBS Sun Belt.

UAlbany to the dregs of D1.

BENSON!!?!??!?!?

WOW. NOT a single comment on this article. Football apathy has reached zenith???????

Has football apathy reached its zenith or has football support reached its nadir?

This inquiring mind wants to know…but it still doesn't give a $iena about this game.

Score a TD.

Miss the extra point. 

Give up a long kickoff return. 

Play 1: TFL.

Play 2: First down. 

Play 3: First down. 

Play 4: Touchdown. 

That's a world class response at home.

34% winning percentage in the CAA, 9 losses in a row...yup, phenomenal. Phenomenal that he still cashes a paycheck....

I mean he's gotta be delusional...right? How else can you explain it...at least just stick to game coverage but to go out of his way to praise this so called coach who's getting his ass kicked week in and week out for 7 out of the 8 years? Fans aren't stupid! We know a pile of $iena when we see it. 

Everyone needs to seriously chill out, especially when it comes to judging Gold Old GG.

If you selectively apply just 87 points to all six of the games, this team is undefeated with wins against a sub .500 FBS team and the gold standard of FCS, and is ranked high in the polls with a clear path to the FCS playoffs.

87 points!  That's it.  You can score that in just one basketball game.

People need to remember that it isn't about winning football games.  It is about how well you can rationalize the losses.

That must have been one hell of a halftime speech by GG.

Is it me; or do these announcers sound like they belong in DIII. Expected something more professional from a perennial power??

The homerism with the absurd amount of "we"s by the one is kind of second rate.

Tough break for mofor.  I may have gone with a play action there. 

Does Mofor ever fumble? Damn it that stinks.

I hear they play good football in the state of North Dakota but evidently they can't work a computer...

At least that explains why they always have good attendance.

It’s an ndsu feed.  Relax. 

I'm not blaming Albany.

First game of the season against the best program at the level and they can't get a feed to work/

Game starting late - at least the broadcast is

My Irish temper is threatening to show.

Live stats is up now…still no feed.

All yellow: We know they are leaving.

Yellow with red: We are awaiting confirmation of their choice.

No highlighting: Confirmed to stay.

This should be current; let me know if anything is missed....and there is no replacing Eli/Ilya!

Nice. Except for the Gmail address 🤦‍♂️

Let's see: Take the initiative and set up an e-mail address in 5 minutes or endure a months-long bureaucratic CF by requesting it through the university.

I applaud the choice.

I think the question of being able to fill a roster for next year is out the window 

When's the last time you saw Albany re-stock with only D1 talent?  🤣😂🤣

Hey fellas... we'll always have last season. Looks like the real UAlbany is back.

Men's lacrosse almost doubled that offensive offensive output.

The only consolation? Not paying for the second month of FloSports to watch this lifeless offense.

Remember back when the team was losing close games and we were told to accept the losses as a sign of better things to come? I'm sensing a similar narrative.
