temple looks good but the twerps look like they don't want to be there. No one in that arena looks like they want to be there. Real crowded, high profile event you've got going there BUM.

the announcers said "MD and g town should play every year".
i've gotten over it - i'm glad we don't play them.

Jabril will indeed be in attendance unless something changes. I expect an ugly game again this year due to Dunphy/III power struggle with their familiarity. Need to push the pace this time around with the press. This +100! Exactly this. Going to be a tough game need to get some transition buckets to make it easier on ourselves.

After spending most of last season abroad I am happy to report that Jahidi will be there! Got a seat about 6 rows off the court right at center court. Picked it up this week on the Temple basketball website. It will be nice to wear the mask again! This is a GREAT SIGN! Jahidi is back in states and ready to rip it up!! This season now has a chance to be legendary!!! Nobody is a bigger fan/more badass then Jahidi!! For those who don't know, it begins with his Wyclef Duet, Victor Page picture, the Calhoun Staredown (my favorite Jahidi story of all time), and well EXPLETIVE IT--NEVER ENDS!!! This guy is a LEGEND and it's damn good to have him back!

BTW--same approach to Temple that I was in favor of in Utah State game---PRESS them full court--they make some questionable decisions and if Hoyas move the ball-they'll get great looks. Temple is also well coached, plays tough half court defense, is a very tough team in Philly, and will be ready--but if Hoyas do what they have, they'll win this game by double digits.

they're decent with the press. i think we lay back a bit and do it during strategic times like last game - but little. they seem to have gained good leverage on MD breaking their press. MD looked unfocused a bit b/c Temple wasn't playing fast at all, like the were walking in snow. If we're hitting our 3s again, we should win. Jordan Williams will be good but i think is a tad overrated. Kevin Sheehan of ESPN980: "Jordan Williams probably won't be in a Maryland uniform next year. He'll probably be in the NBA. He's that good."

RDF - I Co-Sign that - the Mask man and Kruk have had our share of historical Hoya Events go down ... Welcome back Jahidi! THE MASK IS BACK and so are our HOYAS!
PS ... Shout out to MEGAFAN - another BIG-TIME HOYA FAN as well as my CAFE31 crew: Sir Saxa , ForrestHoya , DTrain , VictorSkyPage and GIGAFAN. GAME BY GAME until we get to March and take back our spot again. I hated last yr after those WV punks disrepectfully took over and made it a ugly scene.
WITH THAT SAID .. BEAT TEMPLE on Thurs and treat each game like it's March already. Our Sr's refuse to lose and There won't be a let down this yr. HOYA SAXA!

Temple great Defensive team, but a mediocre Offensive team.
The way we win this game is defense. If you look at the Game Plan data on Ken pom the two losses are their two worst offensive performances. They shot 35% eFG% for both their loses. Play good Defense we win.

Dunphy knows how to prepare against JTIII's Princeton teams, but not these Hoyas. If we can speed up the pace then I see a major blowout for the Hoyas. Last year was weird in that it was the first game of the season before either team was in any type of flow.

With App State and finals coming up, we just need to maintain intensity and focus for a few more days before we can take a couple of breaths. The senior leadership should be able to keep the effort high and take us to 9-0, but of course we cannot sleep on a solid opponent.
