@ South Carolina State (11/20)

[DanesRGood]

Iati and Black were awesome in the second half. I really like Hooley's game. He makes going around defenders and driving to the hoop look easy.

9 and 2 is a great record...I'm concerned about the defense...102.6 Dff Rtg isn'g good enough...

[Patch]

This team is still a work in progress.

 

But it's better to go to work at 9-2 then it is 2-9

How was the attendance tonight? How well were the students represented?

Student section was okay, nothing special.

 

@AndrewSantillo attendance at SEFCU Arena was 2,371 for South Carolina State/UAlbany

I don't normally post tweets from players but I saw this from Blake and as a fan of the team and the school it made me happy to see an hour or so after the game the kid is in the library focusing on school.

meh, should have been a lot better than that. A good team with 5 wins in a row (now 6) at home on a Wednesday night should pull more than 2300. Pretty pathetic, and doesn't bode well for our 8k+ seat football stadium coming online next Fall.

I agree. It's not just the students though. Local support is not there either. Where are all the fans from 2006-2007? I really wonder what the attendance was back in the day. Did all those mediocre and losing years make us lose all the fans we did have? Does the game being on TV have anything to do with it? I just don't get it. Just keep winning and hopefully the fan support will improve.

Also weren't all the season tickets for chair backs and court sides seats once all sold out to season ticket holders at once?

I've been a little surprised by how Guerrier has played so far this year. He's had a couple of big games but has looked a little out of sorts the past couple of games. I thought he was pretty solid last year and my expectations were pretty high for this year. Admittedly Hooley is playing so well it's hard to argue.

 

Still, it's hard to argue with 9-2 and a six game winning streak. Didn't realize this was our best start in D1 history until I read that tonight.

 

People are missing out by not getting out to these games and hopefully they get the message. This is good basketball. Turn off the TV, drive to the Sefcu and yell at the officials with the rest of us!

Nice to see we are getting some national attention. At least someone's knows UA is playing well.

Guerrier and Devlin not getting minutes is surprising. Seems Rowley and Hooley are taking their minutes.

Santa had a small conversation with one of the refs, just before the second half. He said "Hey Santa, I've been a little bad this year".

 

Santa told him, "Some of the people in the stands said he was very bad tonight".

 

He cracked up at that, so He wasn't all bad.

Guerrier and Devlin will be fine, from what I heard Guerrier was a little under the weather (and is in a slump) and Devlin caught 6-8 stiches in his chin last game. I think the break for finals will help both.
