Too much divided attention with this and the Hoban/Walsh game!

odd scheduling.  don't remember a 48 hour break between games in prior tournaments.  but maybe Zips always lost first game.

Oregon State needs to get their crap together. I do not want 281 KenPom Evansville on the schedule (Oregon State is 136 for comparison).

@Blue & Gold, you watched Eric Mahaffey in high school. Did you see this coming? I mean, 20 pts tonight as a freshman?

Only through my blue-n-gold-colored glasses.😅  But no, not really.... certainly not as a freshman. I was surprised when word on the street was he might be starting last season prior to his injury.

He played PG as a senior in HS, so has handles & high IQ. But he's grown a few inches & hasn't lost a step! 🤯

Evansville is giving this game away.

Oregon State didn't want it.

Evansville wins by 4. I will forever hate Oregon State. 

 

See y'all Monday night vs. either Yale or Charleston.

Does Barre finally get playing time against Evansville? They are taller.

From someone on Iona's board...

 

"Akron is better than anyone we'll see this season not named St John's. They would destroy anyone in the MAAC."

 

MAC, MAAC - we own it all. 😉

This Zips team can be as good or better than the Cheese/Banks/LCJ/Williams team. We’re small in the paint, but who can keep up with us? 
 

Eric Mahaffey is half Ali Ali, half Scottie Pippin. In a year or two I don’t know that Bud will be able to afford him.
