According to Vic Cegles and I quote: "We have market priced the tickets." When I questioned him about the quality of the product on the court warranted such pricing. I was told the quality of the product on the court did not come into play. I think many UAlbany fans like myself have decided to take a step back from this game, each of us for our own reason(s).

Despite being outshot by a more then 2-1 margin and Michigan controlling the play most of the game ... UAlbany goalie made some incredible saves UAlbany will face the winner of the Penn State and Louisville match on Sunday.

If his intentions are to pursue legal actions against The University of Hartford, with the hopes of recovering a sum of money will make him seriously less marketable to other DI schools. As I said earlier, I do not understand why he did not move on sooner, in particular with a number of openings for a head coach that open up each spring in DI.

Perhaps to honor his contract and perhaps, Hartford had agreed to pay Gallagher a retention bonus if he stayed until the end of the season. Yes, I am surprised he did not end up someplace else sooner. The Manhattan College position just opened up, easy commute from Hartford.

Hartford men’s hoops coach exits GALLAGHER DEST WEST HARTFORD, Conn. — Coach John Gallagher has resigned less than two years after leading the Hartford men’s basketball team to its first NCAA Tournament. Gallagher, who was named head coach in 2010, sent his resignation letter to university President Greg Woodward on Monday, the eve of the first game of the season, which will be the school’s last at the Division I level. In his letter, Gallagher said the school had consistently undermined the program “to the point where player safety and well-being has been jeopardized.” He cited a preseason scrimmage at Dartmouth in late October when one of his players was injured and wasn’t immediately tended to because the school did not send an athletic trainer with the team. The university disputed Gallagher’s claims, saying in a statement they were “full of inaccuracies.” The university said it would announce an interim coach for the men’s basketball program. Gallagher’s departure comes as the university prepares to transition to Division III after this season.

Does this game against Towson provide us with clue about the outcome of the Albany Cup Game? ... while we lost to Towson by 5 points; this was a 17-point improvement over last year's game and the other team in the Albany Cup won on Saturday by just 7 points against Holy Cross, which finished 9-22 last year. Will have Dwayne Killings on the bench and coaching the team make a difference?

The only mention of our game last evening in the Times Union was in an updated version of today's game: Davis will return to Alumnae Hall with the Great Danes at 5 p.m. Tuesday, a day after opening the season with a 67-62 loss at Towson. He scored 20 points in each of UAlbany’s exhibitions, numbers that approach his performances against the Mighty Macs: 24 points in a 2018 game and 27 (plus 11 rebounds and eight assists) a year later. Davis had 12 points, two rebounds and two assists Monday night.

Danes visit Immaculata Davis, an Arcadia transfer, is no stranger to Mighty Macs’ gym By Abigail Rubel James Franco / Times Union UAlbany guard Da’Kquan Davis, left, has scored over 50 points against the Mighty Macs. James Franco / Times Union UAlbany’s Trey Hutcheson shoots over Saint Rose guard Max Jusianiec during an exhibition game on Wednesday. He had 12 points, seven rebounds and two assists. When Da’Kquan Davis left Division III Arcadia for the University at Albany men’s basketball team, Immaculata coach Jayson Hyman breathed a sigh of relief. “Didn’t think I would ever be playing against him again. It was kind of exciting when he left Arcadia,” Hyman said of the 6-foot-1 guard who scored 1,825 career points for the Knights. Davis will return to Alumnae Hall with the Great Danes Tuesday at 5 p.m., a day after opening the season at Towson. He scored 20 points in each of UAlbany’s exhibitions, numbers that approach his performances against the Mighty Macs: 24 points in a 2018 game and 27 (plus 11 rebounds and eight assists) a year later. “He plays to his strengths. He knows his game. Most basketball players develop that IQ later in their career. He grasped that pretty early, which made him stand out amongst the rest,” Hyman said. It’s unusual for a Division I school to play a Division III school on the road, but with SEFCU Arena under renovation and the Great Danes playing at Hudson Valley Community College, it’s an unusual season for UAlbany. Assistant coach Bobby Jordan, who’ll continue as UAlbany’s acting head coach at Immaculata while Dwayne Killings serves the penultimate game of his suspension, reached out to Hyman because the team was looking for a game on the way back from Towson. The offer was like “Christmas came early.” “I leaped at that. Being able to host a team like Albany is amazing for our school, our program, for my guys. Just to compete against a DI team, have that be part of their four-year experience here, I think that’s a good thing,” Hyman said. Immaculata’s men’s basketball team hasn’t hosted a Division I team before, but the program is only 17 years old. It was added in 2005 after Immaculata went coed in 2003. (The women’s team, though, won the first-ever national championship in 1972.) UAlbany has struggled with injuries at the start of the season, with leading returning scorer Justin Neely sitting out both exhibitions with a shoulder injury. Malik Edmead (ankle) and Will Amica (groin) also missed time in the preseason. Trey Hutcheson and Gerald Drumgoole both stood out, with Drumgoole scoring 19 points against Skidmore and Hutcheson filling the stat sheet with 12 points, seven rebounds, two assists, two steals and four blocks at Saint Rose. Senior forward Tyler Tillery is the Mighty Macs’ top returning player after averaging 11.2 points per game and 6.6 rebounds per game last season. Immaculata went 8-19, 4-8 in the Atlantic East Conference. “I have a pretty young team. ... So to expose them to a team like Albany would be good for their growth,” Hyman said. Having Davis on the other team only adds to that. “It’s a good story, and some of these guys may attach to that, and it may elevate their game because of that opportunity that Da’Kquan had,” he continued. “He was exceptional, but he had good games and bad games on that level too, and now he’s excelling at the Division I level, I think a lot of D3 kids can take from his experience.”

I am certain Mark and Vic along with the University attorneys are and will continue to discuss their options about Gattuso and his contract. I wonder if anyone on this forum knows when Benson's contract expires. Are we headed for another Dr. Lee McElroy situation where Benson is told that his contract would not be renewed?
