As of this morning, only 107 seats available for Saturday's game .... could Saturday be the largest crowd that UAlbany MBB plays in front of all year?  Who knew we were such a draw....

Providence basketball capacity looks be be a little over 12,000.

Plenty of tickets in resale sites for as little as $6. 

I will not be at this game.

Wow, you think we have problems with our men's BB program.  Boston College already lost to Maine this season and now just lost to UNH.

That was an entertaining finish. Whoever at UNH recruited Clarence O Daniels should get a raise. They should have won in regulation - he got fouled on the tying three pointer. The ACC ain't what it used to be.

[nysteve661]

Was entertaining, that kid will be tough in our two games against UNH.  The BC AD hasn't learned not to schedule AE teams anymore.  Every year they lose one, and always at home.  Imagine their message boards 😵😵.

[godanesgo99]

You think we have problems and BC has problems? Check out the comment thread on this year's Louisville team. Very strange year in college basketball to say the least....

Change a few names and a few stats I'd swear they were talking about this UA team. 

I wonder how much losing an entire year of high school and AAU basketball to COVID has affected the play of today's kids.

They will have a great time...this $ienaty team is going to give up 100pts...Providence is ranked 43rd in the country on offensive efficiency, we are ranked 324 in defensive efficiency. This is gonna be ugly, hide your children.

After the last game I decided to look at the year Benson was hired in August I believe. For the 2014 calendar year, the Lax, FB and MBB teams were 24-18 combined. The current year is 11-25 combined. That 2014 LAX team won the America East Championship. The football team had a winning record thanks to Bob Ford recruits and a bonehead play by Holy Cross. The BB team was 5-7, but was very competitive against a tough OOC schedule. And then went on to win the AEC. Does anyone here think this BB team could repeat that? So the three main men’s sports went from a .571  winning percentage to a .306 winning percentage. And two champions vs likely zero. Such an erosion of success under his tenure.

Sprinkle in all the process and procedure snafu's (remember the seat back melee weapon controversy?), lack of communication, pricing out casual fans with insane parking prices and it's honestly not a surprise we average 10 fans a game. It has been a trainwreck and it starts at the top. It's pathetic. I've watched like 10 minutes of actual MBB gameplay. I only watched the first 3 or 4 FB games. I literally can not be bothered to spend time watching UA sports. There is dozens of other things I can do with my time. I used to schedule my entire life around UA events and now I just watch the score and read the forum. And I'm 100% not alone. Some don't even read the forum anymore.

2014 was a very tough OOC schedule ehh? If that’s tough what do you call this years?

Yeah well...you can say what you want but that was the right decision. Considering the performance on the field, what is left for fans to do but riot and use whatever they can find for a weapon.

Do the SEFC renovations happen regardless of Benson?
