Its coverage like Barker's re-caps and the piece of JG and JW that really put the Times above the Post in coverage of the Hoyas. I hope the SID and athletic department remember this when we are back and we have a larger media following.

" . . . replacing the first-half tandem of ineffective center Roy Hibbert . . ."
Ouch, that can hurt. He tells it like it is though. Roy needs to keep his head up and adjust to the Big East game, and the scoring oportunities will come with time.

It sounded like Roy gave us some good minutes today. Sure, they aren't like Sweetney minutes, but, given what he had in terms of PT, his points should not be overlooked.

I agree, I thought he was too rough on Roy. 6 pts in 8 minutes is not meaningless even though he did have some turnovers.

SO TRUE StPetersburgHoya ----
Camille does an "ok" job sometimes, but the Post usually seems to just ignore our boys. A great example of their pitiful coverage of our Hoyas was todays piece about the (then) upcoming VU game.
The whole piece was about VU and how they had problems with their plane...how they have to realize that unplanned things happen in life...yadda yadda yadda.
It really is just pitiful and sad how crappy the Post covers the Hoyas. And to tell you, I would like to know what Shapland (sp) up in Sports Information is doing about the Post's coverage of our boys besides spending more time up at Yates...
POST SPORTS SUCK!

Barker is just a better sports writer than anyone else covering the Hoyas, period. If the Post is smart, Barker will get the next columnist opening there.
