    when they went up 25-7 i turned to my wife and said, "this might be the best team jay wright has ever had...." this immediately proceeded a 31-7 run by syracuse. :lol:

    can't win them all and they will struggle against bigger teams like that when the 3's are not falling. took way too many bad shots early in the shot clock too. syracuse is good.

    by the way, could the ennis brothers look anymore different?

    I only saw part of it, but was following on my phone and was pretty shocked. Syracuse is looking good, but have most of these past few years.

    so i'm guessing nova might be in the top 10 again after a successful start to the new big east season combined with a couple losses from teams ahead of them.

    the announcing crews on fox sports are pretty damn good. bill raferty and gus johnson together is great to listen to. nice to hear dick stockton's voice call games also.

    LaSalle's above .500 again. A-10 schedule starts this week. Time to get busy living or get busy dying. They're just not shooting the ball well as a team. 40% Fg's and 31% 3's. Duren needs to pick it up as a Sr. PG

    A10 is really good this year with a lot of good teams. Maybe only UMass is great but lots of teams in the mix for the rest of the spots. Hawks are looking really average. My guess would be 7-9 or 8-8 in the league for the Hawks. Open up Wednesday night at UMass which I'm not sure Hawks can come within 20 of them.

    Hawks and Explorers get each other 2x this year. Both played on campuses though as opposed to the Palestra.

    Nova looks to be the best team in the Big East. they are probably going to end up like 27-3 or something ridiculous like that.

    Going to be weird with no Big Monday anymore.

    Nice, I still haven't seen them play yet. LaSalle has pulled off 3 in a row and has 3 more winnable games before VCU. I didn't realize how injured Duren was in the beginning of the year. He almost red shirted but is much healthier now. LaSalle is 298th in the country in FG%.

    JK_Livin - making it down for ESPN Gameday on Saturday for LaSalle-Temple?

    Hawks play Penn at the Palestra Saturday night after the Lasalle-Temple noon game.

    last night's Hawks game is why I keep my sports betting to a minimum. Hawks had a 30 point lead with 5 minutes left in the game and put in 2 end of the bench scholarship players and 3 walk-ons and the Duquesne coach kept his starters in and pressing and cut the lead to 9 by the end of the game. and yup guess what the spread was? hawks by 9.5.

    Yes, you? Not sure if I'm going into Gameday early but I'll probably be at the New Deck by 8am. Our group is split. Some want to go into the Palestra at 8 and some don't. Then some want to out after the game to McGillins and make a night of it. I'd be asleep by 5 if I went to McGillins. My kid has a game at 4:30 so I'm bailing after the LU/TU game. I can't hang like that any more.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    with the Hawks playing at night won't make it to LaSalle-Temple although I kind of wish now I had planned it out earlier in the year to make it to both. would have been great. New Deck at 8:00 am. is a BIG effort. good job there. really enjoy the New Deck but I think we are hitting up Declan's Well before the Hawks game. That is a new place that Aiden from the New Deck opened himself. It's at 33rd and Walnut. Haven't been there yet.

    reading the Daily News at lunch and they had a lot of Palestra stuff. Brings back so many memories including a lot of my dad who started taking me and my brothers to games there very early. I can remember games from the time I was 5 or 6 there. I wish the A10 still played their tourney there. Had a few great times there in the early 90s when it was played there.

    Awesome atmosphere with a packed Palestra. I was a little disappointed there were no streamers but it was still great. I can't remember the last time I opened a bar at 8am. LaSalle's FT shooting almost cost them the game.

    Just like Jay Wright should, I'm going to throw the tape of that Nova game last night. It was the 1st chance I've had to see them play this year. Wragge, are you kidding me?
