America East Conference | Forum profile

Nice to see UVM beat up on a bad Toledo team today. Looked like everyone got a lot of minutes and guys like Crenca and Accaoui produced. So there is some perspective, it's too bad we did not play better against Drexel and Cornell in our losses but truth is both of those teams are better than we are- and both of those teams would beat any other America East team as well. Drexel was very physical and Cornell has some very talented players...

perhaps the only thing worse than UVM's performance this afternoon was today's game recap from ESPN Hopefully the catamounts can at least take down Toledo tomorrow afternoon (who were down 41-19 at the break to Drexel today) but I won't be holding my breath...

America East basketball, ladies and gentlemen. I'm starting to get really down on the AE. I agree.....we are very much a low major this season, no way around it. Collectively on pace to finish 27th as a conference....OUCH

Will, do you think UNH still has a shot to land Brito? I'm up in the air about it because of the commitment from Morris, a shooting guard. I think Brito would be an excellent player in the AE. He is small (6'1) but is slasher, and I'd like to see UNH bring in guards like that. I guess I wouldn't be surprised if UNH was going after someone in the Colby Santos mold - 6'5 who can shoot the three.

The first ten minutes will be a critical test for this team mentally. You mean you don't want us to dribble at half court until the clock runs down and then run one quick, poorly executed play every possession?

Quote: Originally Posted by usslider I disagree with you here. BU can only count on Holland? Tyler Morris, Jake O'Brien and Carlos Strong have all been very solid, at least as solid as Fjeld or MoJo (if that's who you were counting from UVM). And despite a couple cold shooting nights and a turnover problem, BU can count on Corey Lowe. BU's problem isn't the number of players it can count on. It's the depth problem...

Congrats to the Cats. Played well and beat a team they should. Now lets continue that play on Tuesday against Dartmouth and get back to .500. I think I'll be heading down to take that one in.

To me.......the following would have been the perfect Eastern BCS conference: BC UConn Syracuse Rutgers Notre Dame Pitt Penn State Maryland West Virginia
