SUcks 106 in KenPom, we are 177. But game is played ON the court (except for TCU of course😀). And TCU now 35 in KenPom. Let’s do this!

Guessing Massoud slides into starting lineup for WBJ.
Keep Mintz from going off and Hoyas have a great chance.
Think the Hoyas will play a lot of zone again.

Although I'm still skeptical whether Ryan's going to be able to provide us with anything beyond spot minutes this year, if we do indeed run zone on them, we could stick him in there as another big body to mix it up with their 7'4" center Mcloud (doesn't seem to be particularly skilled or incredibly mobile). As an assignment, I don't think it's a big ask of Ryan at this point and it could be a great chance for him to build up some much needed confidence.

What did Cuse do to Benny Williams? That guy should have been a monster. Maybe there is more to it but he should be thinking long and hard about a transfer to Gtown.

While the money grab desertion by Suckacuse has diminished the importance and fever-pitch intensity of the rivalry, let us never forget.
Manley Field House is officially closed.
The 1981 BET held at Syracuse; Syracuse students stealing the banner of the DC radio station airing the Hoya games and parading it through the streets - only to have it rescued by BC fans(?!)
"Ewing Can't Read" signs and a banana thrown against the back of the backboard while he was at the line.
Michael Jackson dropping 31 as a freshman to win at the Dome.
Pearl Washington hitting a go ahead jumper with 8 seconds left, only to have little Charles Smith dribble through all 5 Orangeboys to hit the buzzer teardrop over Rony Seikaly.
The Michael Graham slap/punch after Andrew Hawkins barely missed Graham's face with a wild swinging elbow wrestling for a rebound in 1984 BET; Froggy Paparo initially ejects Graham, then reduces it to a technical, causing Boeheim to later throw a chair and storm out of post game presser.
Ewing banging Pearl for rebound position in 1985 BET, Pearl then punches Patrick in the ribs and Patrick retaliation punch misses the mark.
Pearl last second jumper beating Hoyas at the Dome in '85.
Pops gets a technical from each of the 3 refs back-to-back- to-back
during first half in 1990, waves arms to booing crowd as he leaves the court.
Otto Porter drops 33 at the Dome in 2013 to spoil Derrick Coleman jersey raising celebration.
Never Forget. Crush the Orange.

I remember seeing something about a pre-game breakfast/ brunch that you had to buy tix for - but I can't find it.
Is that still happening? Anybody have that link?

He was switching between zone and MTM in the UVA beat down where it really didn't matter. |

Anyone have any bar recommendations near the arena that will be open Saturday morning before the game?

Anyone have any bar recommendations near the arena that will be open Saturday morning before the game? I often pre-game here before noon games as it opens at 11 am. I believe Joe the Bartender told me that it would open earlier for the Syracuse game. I just checked and the Channel will be opening at 9 AM for the game. N.B. Class of '77 is meeting here for post-game drinks. It is located 2 blocks away from Cap One at 5th & H Street inside the Fairfield Inn. www.irishchanneldc.com/ |
