It does matter whether we play 150 or 250 because it affects our RPI and strength of schedule. The NCAA committee isn't necessarily going to care what individual teams we played but in the aggregate it does matter. Im really saying that it doesnt matter whether we lose to the 150th or 250th ranked team. They are both bad losses, especially at home. I guess my only point is that I dont think these games are scheduled with an eye towards improving the NCAA tourney resume. And, I have no problem with that. They are done to get us good reps. I agree that they're both bad losses, absolutely. But if you look at the teams we've scheduled since JTIII has been here, I think he absolutely is trying to schedule teams that help our chances with the committee. I get that scheduling a better team also serves as a better test for the players -- and that may be part of the thinking too -- but I think the schedule is very carefully made for SOS purposes.

For what it's worth, DSR was asked (presumably in today's press availability) if he was comfortable being the primary ball handler. He said, roughly, "I'm very comfortable with it. You know, just figuring out what guys tendencies are, that's the biggest thing, and you know with 10-11 guys in the rotation that's pretty tough. So right now I am just trying to get everybody involved."

So right now I am just trying to get everybody involved." Perfectly understandable. Amidst some of the afterglow following two wins over relatively weak teams, it is important to remember that this Hoya team is very much a work-in-progress. That means that they could win easily against a team like Robert Morris or they could get upset because of the growing pains and a combination of bad luck and mistakes. The last game showed what this team is capable of, both good and bad.

My hope for this game is for DSR to have a normal game.

FYI, FS2 is replaying this game tonight at 9 pm so if you cannot stream via Go at noon (like me) you've got another chance to catch it later on.

If I were to go to a sports bar in Brooklyn and ask them to put it on, what channel would I be asking for? FS2, I know. But didn't people also say the last game was on MSG or something else?

Both Time Warner Cable and Optimum (Cablevision) have Fox Sports 2, so the bar should be able to get it, even if it's not HD.

I'd like to see DSR get his offensive game going before we play someone with a pulse.

I'm surprised we have Josh do the tip instead of Hopkins.
