Why does Nova's uniforms have yellow in them? When did this happen? Looks like the Pacers or something.
Throwback to the 70s.
how about that Ryan Daly shot to send game into overtime? One of the craziest shots I’ve ever seen.
3-12 but actually impressed with billy lange. Team has really played hard for the most part and love where the roster is headed: two. 4 star guard transfers sitting out and like the young players on this squad.
their uniforms were yellow in the 70's? did not know that.
Also not a Big 5 team (nor philly team) but how about Penn St. in the top AP Poll? Although they lost yesterday.
They look like Michigan. Fucking Nike. I hate how so many teams in so many sports, now, have 5 jersey's each.
I was thinking of Marquette also, but Michigan would work also.
Cool, although I didn't realize Arkansas joined the Big 5

Penn state is really good. Stevens is heck of a player. Nova could do almost anything in the tourney. Wouldn’t be surprised if they lost in the first round or get to the elite eight

I would agree with you on this. I don't have a great feel for this team.
A former Pennsylvania men's basketball coach has been handed a 15-year show-cause penalty stemming from major ethical conduct violations, the NCAA announced Wednesday.
The punishment comes after the father of a prospective recruit gave the coach at least $250,000 in an attempt to increase the likelihood of his son's admittance to Penn, according to the Association's release.
Though unnamed in the release, the ex-coach in question is almost certainly Jerome Allen, who coached at Penn from 2009-15. Allen testified in March 2019 as a government witness in Miami federal court that he accepted money from healthcare executive Philip Esformes between 2013 and 2015.
"I got his son into Penn; I got his son into Wharton," Allen said at the time, according to the Miami Herald's Jay Weaver. "None of that would have happened without me."
Allen's 15-year show-cause order means "any NCAA member school employing him must restrict him from any athletically related duties unless it shows cause why the restrictions should not apply."
Should Allen be hired as a coach in the year following the completion of his show-cause penalty, the hiring school must also suspend him for the first 50% of the season.
The 47-year-old is presently an assistant coach on Brad Stevens' staff with the Boston Celtics.
Penn's men's basketball program is facing discipline of its own, though it's relatively minor compared to Allen's. The Quakers' current staff will be banned from men's basketball recruiting communications from May 10-20 and May 31-June 10 this year. The team must also pay a $5,000 fine and will be under probation for two years.

Crazy harsh. Dave bliss you tried to cover up a murder only got ten year show clause. Guys whose assistants went to jail for bribery still have jobs. 15 years wow
Njoku attends Sanford School (Del.), the same school that produced former Wildcat forward Will Sheridan. He also plays for Philadelphia-based Team Final on the Nike EYBL circuit, a frequent pipeline for Villanova. Njoku checks in at 6’9” and 245 lbs. He’s currently ranked 86th nationally in the 247Sports Composite rankings.
With Dhamir Cosby-Roundtree entering his senior season and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl a potential early entrant to the NBA following next season, forward was a huge position of need. Wright went out and got his #1 target at the position, and early in the recruiting cycle at that.
Njoku has the body type that should allow him to help right away if needed once he gets to the Main Line. He’s reportedly has a decent jump shot as well, something that is crucial to Villanova’s offensive system.
Njoku is the first verbal of the 2021 recruiting class for Villanova. Villanova will turn their focus to the backcourt and the wing where they are chasing Trey Patterson, Jordan Longino, Angelo Brizzi and others.
PHILADELPHIA - La Salle University head men's basketball coach Ashley Howard has announced the signing of Jhamir Brickus (Coatesville, Pa.) and Tegra Izay (Montreal, Quebec, Canada) to National Letters of Intent on Wednesday. The two spring signees join Anwar Gill (Washington, D.C.) as members of the Class of 2020.
One of the top scorers in the state of Pennsylvania, the 5-11 Brickus registered 2,531 career points for Coatesville Area High School. As a junior, he scored 40 points in a game against Avon Grove to surpass former NBA All-Star and UConn All-American Richard Hamilton. This past season, Brickus averaged 23.1 points per game and bettered John Allen (Seton Hall) to became Coatesville Area's all-time leading scorer.
This past year, Coatesville Area went 20-8 record, tying West Chester East for first place in the Ches-Mont League National Division during the regular season. In his final high school game, Brickus scored 26 points in his final game, a 81-75 loss to Roman Catholic on March 7 in the first round of the PIAA Class 6A tournament.
Izay is a 6-10 center who played high school basketball for Archbishop Carroll in Washington, D.C. As a senior, he averaged 12 points, 10 rebounds and five blocked shots per game for the Lions.
Rated a three-star recruit by Rivals.com, Izay posted 11 points, 14 rebounds and six blocked shots against Bishop McNamara during the 2019-20 season and also had a standout game in a victory over St. Mary's Ryken (16 points, 15 rebounds, six blocks).
La Salle posted 15 victories during the 2019-20 season, a five-win improvement over the prior season, and closed out the campaign with wins over St. Bonaventure and rival Saint Joseph's before the Atlantic 10 Tournament was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Alright, alright, alright!

Brickus is a tough Dude who can score(Obviously). I think that should be good for both him & LaSalle.

Do you remember the LaSalle screamer? story about him in Inquirer today. he has passed away. Remember him trying to get the LaSalle fans fired up. Remember a lot from the Convention Center days.
I remember him well. Did not know him but I recall him back to the Palestra days. RIP. There was always a break in the second half in which the PA announcer would let him do his chant. "we fight hard. we fight well. when we fight, we fight like L A S A L L E Here we go Explorers, here we go. clap clap
Then the band would start playing to his cadence.

"Over the last two years, I have grown as a player, student, and man thanks to my coaching staff, teammates, and professors," Bey said. "Villanova has the greatest fans in the world and I will miss playing in front of them next year. I will always be a Wildcat. I am really excited to start the pursuit of my NBA career."
Bey earned a unanimous All-Big East selection as a sophomore after averaging a team-high 16.1 points on 45.1% shooting from long range, along with 4.7 rebounds. The potential lottery pick projects as a strong 3-and-D player at the next level.
The Maryland native first announced his intention to test the NBA draft waters in early April.
With Bey as their leading scorer, Villanova finished atop the Big East this season and ranked 10th in the nation with a 24-7 record.

A former Pennsylvania men's basketball coach has been handed a 15-year show-cause penalty stemming from major ethical conduct violations, the NCAA announced Wednesday.
The punishment comes after the father of a prospective recruit gave the coach at least $250,000 in an attempt to increase the likelihood of his son's admittance to Penn, according to the Association's release.
Though unnamed in the release, the ex-coach in question is almost certainly Jerome Allen, who coached at Penn from 2009-15. Allen testified in March 2019 as a government witness in Miami federal court that he accepted money from healthcare executive Philip Esformes between 2013 and 2015.
"I got his son into Penn; I got his son into Wharton," Allen said at the time, according to the Miami Herald's Jay Weaver. "None of that would have happened without me."
Allen's 15-year show-cause order means "any NCAA member school employing him must restrict him from any athletically related duties unless it shows cause why the restrictions should not apply."
Should Allen be hired as a coach in the year following the completion of his show-cause penalty, the hiring school must also suspend him for the first 50% of the season.
The 47-year-old is presently an assistant coach on Brad Stevens' staff with the Boston Celtics.
Penn's men's basketball program is facing discipline of its own, though it's relatively minor compared to Allen's. The Quakers' current staff will be banned from men's basketball recruiting communications from May 10-20 and May 31-June 10 this year. The team must also pay a $5,000 fine and will be under probation for two years.
I saw him last season and he's a nice get for LaSalle. He's only 5' 11" but really strong. He can score well.
I think Bey is leaving, unfortunately. Hope I'm wrong...

Villanova forward Saddiq Bey has decided to sign with Excel Sports Management and remain in the 2020 NBA Draft, he told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
"Over the last two years, I have grown as a player, student, and man thanks to my coaching staff, teammates, and professors," Bey said. "Villanova has the greatest fans in the world and I will miss playing in front of them next year. I will always be a Wildcat. I am really excited to start the pursuit of my NBA career."
Bey earned a unanimous All-Big East selection as a sophomore after averaging a team-high 16.1 points on 45.1% shooting from long range, along with 4.7 rebounds. The potential lottery pick projects as a strong 3-and-D player at the next level.
The Maryland native first announced his intention to test the NBA draft waters in early April.
With Bey as their leading scorer, Villanova finished atop the Big East this season and ranked 10th in the nation with a 24-7 record.
if the transfer from Tulane is really good Nova should still be great.
