Hallelujah! May have got lost in the huge portal crowd and figured another year at UA may help his portfolio. Sure he will try to avg 15 and 10 next season.

Ho hum is about right. Went to Charlotte in Conference USA for one year where he didn't get many minutes, then Bing for two years where he did ok by stepping down in competition getting 25-27 min/game. Then decided to try Conference USA again at UAB where he barely got minutes, 4 per game and only 14 games total. Obvious his game did not belong in C-USA, AE more his type but as stated, not blistering shooting percentage so role player at best.

I don't follow UA baseball like I do FB, MBB, and Lax but this years team is not even close to competitive. They are now 3 and 18 overall, 0 for 7 in AE. Seems like the pitchers would struggle vs a D2 team. Todays starter went 2 inn, gave up 9 runs with 9 walks, yes 9, not a misprint. Coach, we leave in a guy who can't find the plate for that long?? Next guy went 2 inn for 6 runs and the 3rd dude went 3 inn for 5 runs leading to a 20-4 loss to Maine. I know mens baseball has never been a juggernaut in D1, but usually finish around .500 and can surprise in the AE tourney once in a while. Is this now another mens athletic team going down the tubes AD Benson????

I know UA is down again this season but so is the AE. IL just did their mid-season All -American teams, three teams and a huge list of honorable mentions and not a single AE player.

Here is the rule from the NCAA, one free transfer but a 2nd one would require a year to sit out: " The NCAA passed a rule that allowed an athlete a one-time, penalty-free transfer that removed the old sit-one-year requirement as long as it was their first transfer. Now, the rule requires a player to sit out one year only after a second entrance into the transfer portal.Aug 1, 2022

Yup. When Marr does not have an 1st team All-American attackman, ie. Restateris, Thompson, Fields, we are mediocre at best on offense over the past 15 years. Time to find the next 1st teamer coach. Or UA will be a middle of the road team offensively year after year.

Like many of you , UA athletics are getting worse by the week. Lax down 5 zip in 1st quarter already. Even the baseball team getting blown out game after game. Benson has to go, how many times do we have to say this.

All nurses are now required to have Bachelor of Science in Nursing and then pass the NCLEX, a national exam, in order to be licensed. There are many RNs who only have a two year degrees and this UA program accepts the Associates degree and let's them just do the final two years to get a BS degree. Many schools now have an accelerated program that is 12-18 months to get the BSN which includes the summer.

Where in NC are you? Moved here 5 1/2 years ago and live in Southport.

Great to add this to the university's programs. As a father of an RN, the need is tremendous over the next few years. Of course she wouldn't have went to UA as her mother and father did if they had this major a few years ago cause it's too cold, lol. Got her BSN at Jacksonville University two years ago and stayed there.

Looks like Tobin Anderson is leaving FDU after just 10 months. Parlayed the NCAA run to a job at Iona?? I know the NEC is one of, if not lowest rated D1 conference, but moving to the MAAC is a baby step. After what Iona paid Pitino, I guess even if he gets 2/3 of what they paid Pitino, he comes out ahead financially. True he was D2 just a year ago and FDU didn't even win the NEC, so maybe this was highest he can get for now. If he matches Pitinos success for couple years, then maybe an A10 or AAC job.

Wow, the indifference here for the Mens Lax team 😁. All we got was a weather report, lol. They beat a really bad UMass-Lowell team. Whoopee I guess. UVM next who are not as good as last year.

Ladies found a lid on the basket tonight. Shot 16 of 69 for 23%, 4 of 23 from three for 17%. Hahne 1 for 10, Haney 1 for 9, Haegerstrom 3 for 14, Cooper 6 of 20. Nice season though, certainly night and day compared to MBB.

What the heck is going on. Fairleigh Dickinson just beat Purdue. UMBC must be pissed, lol.

Uggg. Can't say we didn't see it coming. Neely may want to try the portal but with no current highlights and probably not able to work out yet at full tilt, he may have no choice but to stay.

I agree, tough schedules can be good for team bonding if you win or bad for team frustrations if you lose. I think Marr should also look at his horses he has for the next season as he schedules. For example, in 2018 he had All Americans Fields and Nantihote among others playing so they were able to beat Cuse, Cornell, and march down to #2 Maryland and beat them as the #1 team for 7 weeks. If he doesn't have nationally praised stars( and I don't see any as of now) on next years team, ease up on the schedule a bit.

Well ladies, can't score 10 pts in 1st half and expect to win. Some awful shots that aren't even close. UVM not alot better with 17. Have had many slow starts this season, hopefully another fast 2nd half start is on the works.

Someone tweeted that they should go after Ted Hoatling, former Great Dane, part of that 1993 great team under Doc. Has done pretty well at New Haven as a head coach, the D2 school.

Last time back to back ROY was Jon Iati and then Jamar Wilson. Couple years later, back to back AE ships. But they had help with Lucious Jordan, Zollner, Brent Wilson, Lillis, Siggers, etc. Can we keep Neely and Beagle first off and then can we surround them with talented role players.

And the ladies win. They went to OT and outscored BU 11 to 1. That is how it's done mens team.

Even with some odd decisions by DK, it is on the players to get blown out 17 to 3 in OT. That is on them. Mentally and physically they were on the bus after regulation. Of course we can circle back to the coaching staff for not keeping the team up for the OT session. Four games left of this debacle.

Typical for this season, play a somewhat decent game and still find a way to lose. DK another odd move, UA with ball, tie game and 17 sec left in regulation AND a TO in pocket. Doesn't call it and we get a stumbling Reddish shot at buzzer, not even close. Then BU blitz us in OT.

Glutten for punishment, watching the game. Actually one of their better halves this season, yet still losing by a bucket at the half.

Another UA sport that has deteriorated under Benson's watch. When does it end? There is a better AD out there somewhere, please President Rodriguez, find him/her.
