I love the TOP for UA. They are really working to keep Nova offense off the field

Defense looks really good...offense, ehhh. They are moving it, but it seems like a struggle.

So I don't know if I am reading this correct...does this mean they either need to cut a male sport or they need to add a female sport? I think the bigger issue w Women's Tennis was that all the AE schools were killing it and they had no place to go. UAlbany held on almost longer than anyone.

Can I say...these jerseys tonight need to be worn every single damn game! Forget the all purple helmet. These need to be worn or the gold UA helmets.

I think those pics should answer the question about the corner screens. I can't imagine them being needed at this point.

not sure if it was posted, but per the Siena board, his mom is a UA alumnus

Yea the Men's Basketball twitter posted alarms about 1.5 hrs ago. I'm assuming this is the news.

Not sure where to go with this. But, WOW...

2 years of eligibility?

Take out D3 team and yes. D3 games water down any schedule. I still say it's garbage, for UA or any AE team, to schedule these games and they can't find 1-2 teams that are DI to play (either they make the trip or the other team makes the trip.

I like getting Kent State to Albany. I like the schedule minus the DIII crap.

I can't even explain how dumb I believe that article was...my goodness.

let's not pretend Will Brown doesn't do this also. I mean for some reason he has blocked me on Twitter. I don't know what I ever said or did to him. I have loved him as a coach and think him and his family (met and spoke to his father years ago) are awesome people. Yet, I have been blocked because maybe I criticized him in the past? So Coach Brown, if you do read this, please unblock me. I really like you!

I love this move...he was the one writer at TU who actually gave UAlbany the time of day. He actually put in-depth work into articles about the school. This is a great get in my view. Love it!

Rambo won it...hahahaha...whatever

By the way...start scheduling Big Ten...it's simple as that. Learn how that conference plays.

well UA lost to the National Champions...takes the sting out a little.

I gotta say, it seems UA, with the help from the Thompson's I believe, have really solid control of the Iroquois recruiting scene.

There's your answer if we should be looking for a better league. Got destroy and Marr had no idea what to do... Keep building the program, this season should be appreciated for what it was, continue to build the name of the program, parlay that into recruits and keep building.

 

I'm not mad... Just disappointing

this 10000000000%

it's upsetting this is how the season ends. They just didn't have it today. Upsetting only because of how well they played them earlier in the year. They just looked lost from the 2nd half on UNC and Maryland just must have saw something in that play and totally exposed them.

I would like to think we are at Gonzaga level in NCAA Basketball.

Albany has a really rough bracket. Play at Alabama and in same bracket with Minnesota, who had best record in the nation. Game is Friday at 5 PM on SEC Network

ok...the issue I found seems to be with 2005 AE Women's Outdoor Track and Field Championship. UA did not count it, yet AE records clearly show (on the AE website) they won the title that year. Was that title vacated or something? Confused. We clearly did hit the 100 mark, but that would be w/ lacrosse title, not softball. This is the history teacher in me.

UPDATE: Upon further investigation, it seems there must be a flaw in AE records. Northeastern won the 2005 championship, yet they market the women as winning it. So I'm gonna go with that. So AE screwed up I guess. I trust our Athletic Dept...CELEBRATE 100!!!!!

yea something is messed up with this...they giving women's outdoor track and field 1 less championship. I have it as 101.

so I have the count at 101 according to wikipedia page (I know not the end all be all of sources). What year and sport did wikipedia screw-up on?

Softball win is the schools 100th conference title in school history according to UA Athletics Twitter
