I've been in the team DAW camp since he came on board. I get the flaws, and get why posters are critical of him. But more often than not this year he is our clear best or second best player on the floor. On the one hand, that probably explains our record. On the other, I appreciate he plays hard all the time despite his flaws (which he should be doing anyway, but still).

Also a lesson for those of you who throw stones at players on other teams from afar based on something you read or hear about them. Because this kid had major baggage coming from SJU, and yet no one has seen anything like that here.

Great article. SHU is lucky to have Carino giving us consistent in depth coverage. Certainly no one else does.

It's why I give him a pass when some of his tweets or articles seem like "state run media" compared to his "takes" or opinions about other topics or teams. He needs access and this is a program and coach that for whatever reason seems to provide little to none to even their biggest supporters. He cannot cross Sha, so he's going to do what he has to do from a messaging perspective to get the access he needs. But he is the only person who covers us, really, so I get it and appreciate the coverage.

I have a lot of respect for Dylan. Even if Senior Night will never be the same, I still plan on being there at 6:30 to wish him and Jenkins/Toumi well.

VCU shot 9/37 from 3 in that game. We shot 7/12, including the miraculous 3/3 from Tubek.

I was in Charleston for that game. Until UCONN, it was the highlight of the season.

Maybe, but I have a feeling Wright is in the administration's ear preaching patience with him.

Agree, but Godswill is worth the investment. Big guys with potential or skill are the hardest to get.

Coleman & Godswill are my top 2.

Aligbe only as a backup/limited bench option.

Dual is the enigma to me. Has been since the season began.

Also I think Nova fans would make Neptune walk back from the Garden if we play them and Nova loses.

Even in this terrible year that has been a challenge since game freaking 2 at Walsh, I still look forward to the BET at MSG every year. It’s a terrific event in my favorite venue.

DePaul plays at Providence, then Georgetown. They lost to one in OT and beat the other, so no gimme they go 2-18. I would be stunned if we don’t go 2-18 with Creighton and at Connecticut on deck.

I too hope we get Georgetown in the 7/10 game at 6:30. Or Butler. Even Providence. Any of them. Nova at the BET in MSG would be fun for old time’s sake.

I will go to basically any BET tournament game. If anyone ever has tickets they are looking to unload, for any game, post here b/c I'm always interested in the BET. Doesn't matter the matchup. Great way to meet up with friends etc. One of my favorite sporting events.

Especially with Sorber done for the year. We might very well win that game.

Without Sorber I think we match up really well with Gtown. They shouldn't be able to dominate us on the glass/inside. It will come down to our guards/wings controlling their guards/wings.

Piratz said:

Think that was a different player.

I didn't remember it either. All I remember from that game is the USC guards and another big kid blocking a million shots. I don't ever recall the SJU kid even playing.

Did you complain this much when Obama changed the way unemployment was calculated to make the numbers look better?

Thank God you've been bookmarking that article for 13 years. You finally got a chance to use it. SuperMuskers like yourself are always prepared.

So are you offended enough by Obama that you are opposed to President Trump potentially changing the way GDP is calculated?

Interesting. Probably ensures stability until 2030/31. In addition to three of the four power football conferences’ media rights deal coming up for renewal, so does the BE media rights deal. All bets are off as to what happens then.
