Nice article and glad you pointed me to it as I might have missed it from the other references on this board. What's the prediction, need it game by game? Your article doesn't comply. ? and thank you. He's asking if you are willing to give a game by game prediction for the year

Overall 26-5 OOC: 11-2 BE: 15-3
First loss will be in the second game of the Maui tournament after we expend all our energy defeating Oregon, but that should still be a winnable game; so I wouldn't be surprised if we make it to the final if we win that first game. Our other OOC loss will be to Syracuse, I wish it weren't so but they look to be a solid team this year. It'll be a battle and be close but I think the uniqueness of playing in the dome (for our current players) will be too much.
I don't think 'Nova will repeat and the losses of Archi's leadership and Ochefu's presence will hurt them too much.
X is a very good team and has a strong home presence so we'll split with them at best. Similar with Butler but their home presence is much stronger and makes up for a weaker team then X.
I think we'll lose at least 1 trap game and I'm taking Depaul after a hard fought win in against Creighton and right before a trip to NYC against an improved St. Johns.
All in all, I'm hoping for a 4/5 seed at the end of the year with chances to be higher if we are hot come tournament time.

In the name of injecting a little levity into this thread, I have an amusing (IMO) story.
I coach my 7-year old son's soccer team, and last week we beat a team called the Fireballs to go to 4-0 on the season (due to excellent game planning by yours truly). As per custom, we did a quick cheer for the opponents before the handshake line.
That cheer, of course, was "1-2-3 Fireballs!!" None of the boys understood why I started laughing.
Go Hoyas.

To get back on topic...I do not have a specific record prediction, but believe the Hoyas will be a 6-8 seed in the NCAAs. What happens when they get there...who knows!

19-12, with a huge win over Nova in final game enough to put us on the right side of the bubble before the BET. Will need to win one in MSG to get in as a 10 seed. I'd consider that a successful season after last year's disaster.
Obviously, I hope our record is better. But this feels realistic to me, given my frustrations at the results and style of play over the last few seasons. I hope the rumored changes in style happen - but won't believe it until I see it.

I'm off of my prediction by a game already and most that predicted are off by two games. It's going to be difficult to predict the rest of the way but I think our chances for the tournament are going to be rough as the BE is better and we look worse if that's possible.

Fortunately as you've pointed out, we're all terrible at predicting this team, so we have 31 more games to see what happens.
