I don't think it was a terrible 3, it was terrible it didn't go in. -
She also said Stokes may red shirt, but, may not. She is starting to run and might be back. She said it was up to Stokes to decide what she wanted to do.

[MBB] Game #12: 12/12/17 - 9:00pm - @ Memphis
alum73 replied to Eli's topic in Winter Sports-Danes Hoops, Track
My take on the game. When everyone starts saying you look awful, is that many times it's the level of competition makes you look awful, I coached many years in another sport (hockey) and I can't tell you how many times you look at opponents play and depending on the competition get an incorrect opinion as to their strength. The athletes Memphis had were generally better than Albany's. I agree with Eli about some of the turnovers. To me there are bad turnovers and worse turnovers. When a player gets a charge, that's a turnover the same as getting stripped or making a horrible pass. We have too many crappy turnovers. When playing superior athletes you really need to value your possessions. Not getting a shot on a possession is a killer when you are playing up. You might get away with it when you are the superior team. I thought we competed pretty well. We out rebounded them, which wasn't a minor thing. shot 80% FTs. Shot 46+% in second half after shooting < 25% in the first. -
[MBB] Game #11 12/09/17 7:37 vs Siena at TUC

Me too. As I've said before, I'm all for future proofing and I'd never turn down a renovated SEFCU but these claims from other fan bases about our place being a dump...I don't see it. Other than having no ticketing/box office on the SEFCU lot entrance side...and maybe less than optimal concessions...the seating (for me; chairbacks) and the views from EVERYWHERE are great. I'm more than happy to keep attending SEFCU as it sits now for the next 10 years. But again, I wouldn't turn down a renovated version either. Hey many of us are from University Gym days, so SEFCU is a big upgrade. But as most of the posters here are saying SEFCU is great, except for concessions, restrooms, lack of chairbacks, parking, a better entrance, etc. I didn't say Q's facilities were the best or fantastic. They are new and nice, they obviously feel they're large enough for their market. Stony Brook's arena is nice and it's smaller than SEFCU. -

Quinnipiac's facilities are very nice. -

I thought the seats and legroom at the TUC were very uncomfortable. When the SEFCU gets renovated, I hope the seats are not like that! -

All of it! What was the allotment? That I don't know...I tried buying two more tickets last week and was told it was sold out. They told me to to Siena and buy...I SAYS...ABSO-FREAKING-LUTELY-NOT! Same thing for me. -
I thought I remember seeing something that she was injured and out until the start of conference play? Not 100% sure though. She may be redshirting - will be determined in January. She had surgery (I believe back) in the offseason. Thanks Sarge.

I think it's probably just you, a known troublemaker! -
I'd like to now Stokes's status. She hasn't dressed in a while. Did I miss an announcement about this/

You get in there as well... It's a possibility. -

We know who he is. -
Problem is, I'm not sure where you play with with how well Costa and Clark are playing in the time given to them...one could argue that each deserves a few more minutes on average. My hope is that Healey sees that if he takes this time to grow his game, the AE will be his oyster as a sophomore with a very talented Rizzuto as running mate. Assuming Rizzuto doesn't red shirt.

I would like to see Clark and Foster get some more minutes. If only to give Stire, Cremo and Nichols a little breather. -

It must be really bad, it affected everyone's foul shooting! -
You can give to whatever you want. Just let Casey or Justin now where you want to money to go. I'm sure they'll accommodate you.

Joe looks very bad to me. Lazy passes, lazy D. Some of the fouls on the bigs look questionable. -
