    i think this nova team is good enough to make a deep run come march. something to be said for an older team who's played with each other for a few years now...plus they out hustle their opponent night in, night out.

    I loved Nova tonight. Jay always has them ready in these big out of conference games and beating VCU is about beating their press.

    if Nova stays healthy they will be good enough to beat just about everyone outside of Kentucky. Just think Kentucky is too big for them.

    Big East has had a great start to the season. they've already had some big wins.

    of course my Hawks aren't very good again. .500 probably.

    LaSalle looks pretty good again. Temple will be better. Penn is awful.

    Wow, and I thought Ennis' 1st half block was nice. Looks like the Cats will be good this year. Tell them to take it easy on my Explorers next week. LaSalle has #8 Virginia Friday night at the Barclays.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    usually when an offensive player gets knocked to the ground it's a foul. i guess not on that one though.

    great game though. glad i stayed up to watch it (except for the ending). high level and high energy game. Jay gets them to play so hard.

    and shouldn't we start a 2014-2015 thread. i hate seeing the 2013-2014 title.

    i actually think he got all ball. if you watch in slow motion, he doesn't move his hand down on the guys arm right away, rather he moves it kind of behind his head. unbelievable play.

    I was wondering if the guy from behind fouled him but oh well.

    i think he got all ball as well but it is very difficult for a ref to see that he got all ball on a play like that which is why they usually call a foul when a guy falls like that.

    pretty amazing play that he didn't foul him coming from the guarding the in-bounder though.

    and I love Dan Dakich as a commentator. he is highly underrated and really gives a lot of good insights.

    Nice comeback by LaSalle tonight. Down 20, had it down to 4 at the line and bricked the 1&1. They can play good D but the FT shooting is horrendous.

    not sure i've every had less enthusiasm for a St. Joe-Nova game as the one tomorrow. Nova 78-46 is my prediction. Nova's 2nd team would beat this Hawks team by double digits.

    that being said as it is on every day that ends in Y...Fuck Nova

    it is more fun and interesting when the other big 5 teams are also good.

    only on days that end in Y.

    and for the 2nd time they get away with a foul at the end of the game. Cooney gets knocked over and no call. probably at least 2 fouls on the play for the steal to tie the game.

    hell yeah! only good part of the weekend. 2 thoughts-

    1- how old is cooney now? 30? I feel like he's been there since 2005.
    2- nova needed a win like this. things have been too easy so far. I think this is a legitimate final four contending team. gonna be a fun season.

    go cats.
