They don't race in the winter but maybe they were open for mutual betting from elsewhere.

We were in Portland all weekend and couldn't find a Times Union reporter

That video will never cease to bring tears of joy to my eyes

Coach Mac needs to improve her in game management - only called one time during the semi final game. No reason to save timeouts, they don't carry over to next game. I would also like to see Heather and TJ on the floor at the same time once in a while. All in all she has gotten this team to the final and a chance at a 6th in a row championship. These young women are amazing. So far so good.

Great time today at a real basketball tournament. Sat with Mari Warner for the UA game. The team is looking pretty damn good right now.

AD is interim; the President is a lame duck, retiring in June, and his replacement has been named. Wish we could pick our new president that quick. We have a lame duck Chancellor - I think Stellar will be the interim for a while.

When the real BU was still in the AE there was an 8v9 play in game

Women clinch 2nd place before tipoff as UMBC loses to UNH.

I say go back to a one site tournament. Since the first year we were in, I took vacation time to travel to the turnament and attended all the games. Had a great time every year even though the first few were very lean for UA. Will be in Portland this weekend to see the AE women play.

In an era when some of the best "TV" shows are on Netflix, Amazon and Hulu, I'd say that ESPN3 qualifies as a national television

I believe that Tahnee Balerio was interviewed. She was not announced at UCF until Coach Mac was announced here.

With the win the women are assured of at least 3rd place. If they can win out (@Vermont and @Hartford) and UMBC drops 1 of last 2 (@SBU and vUNH) they will secure 2nd place. I agree with much of what Venice 1020 in the post about the UMBC game. I was very vocal that we should have promoted from within and I have seen nothing that changes that opinion. With the talent on this team there is no grace period. Win the tournament and you get an A.

So this makes 4 arrests in less than a year. Where are you commish?! How bout looking into Stony Crook instead of focusing on your stupid YouCanPlay and OurHouseRules garbage campaign shenanigans. Update: Was told by a possible source that the You Can Play campaign is actually meant for the criminals of Stony Brook. Really - please check out youcanplayproject.org it is not an ad campaign for the AE like #ourhouserules

UPD are NOT State Police - NO, NO and again NO

Not when the cupboard is full.

And with tonight's win I am thinking of upgrading Coach Mac's first-year grade from a D+ to a C-. Still, with 24 more TOs tonight, I might keep her at a D+. C- or D+ / In the words of John McEnroe - You can not be serious! Let me get this out first - I think we over paid for the wrong coach. That said, I believe Coach Mac is doing a much better job of late and the team is finally finding their way. - Don't forget that we didn't just lose our coaching staff but also our point guard who was second team all conference last season. - We lost our top recruit who is second in scoring and playing 26 min/game at Seton Hall. - We lost the all time leading scorer in team history to graduation. - The team has been plagued by injuries. The team is solidly in second place and just beat the undefeated in conference first place team - looks like they are ready to make another run in the conference tournament. I give a grade of B Can't do anything to change the early season issues but need to work on second half intensity.

From TU story about Antoine White: Note: UAlbany still hasn't released its 2017 schedule. The Great Danes are trying to finalize their Colonial Athletic Association game against Elon, scheduled for Sept. 30 in North Carolina. New York bans all non-essential state travel to that state because of North Carolina's House Bill 2, which stipulates transgender people must use public bathrooms corresponding with their birth gender. UAlbany associate athletic director Charlie Voelker said the university's legal counsel is working with Gov. Andrew Cuomo's office to find a solution .

Crook announced that he was graduating and not staying for his last year of eligibility. He is going home to Cap Cod to farm oysters with his father. http://www.timesunion.com/tuplus-sports/article/5-questions-UAlbany-football-s-DJ-Crook-10621732.php sandspitoysters.com

Monmouth, now in the Big South Conference, has released their 2017 schedule and they are coming to BFF @ Casey Stadium Sep 16 v Monmouth
