Not trying to be a Debbie Downer, but what’s going on in the Ukraine tonight…will not be watching the game….strictly tuned to the news tonight. This reminds me of the night we were playing at Alumni Hall as the bombs were dropping on. Baghdad in the first Gulf War. News of this started to filter through the stands as the game was going on. Pray this insanity does not continue!
Just heard Biden’s press conference… he seems very confused. Scary , need the distraction of this game. 
 
Mathis is such a pest on defense. When he is taking outside shots, he is super valuable.

Does anyone know Pete Gillen's hometown and ancestry?

I'm pretty certain he's Irish and from New York. I am not 100% sure, but I am older than most guys on here, I remember when my High School team in BK (Nazareth) played (Jesuit) Brooklyn Prep and Pete Gillen was their coach. So I am certain Pete is from NYC, and pretty sure Brooklyn, Irish Catholic ancestry. His accent gives him away.

Pete in college coached U of Virginia, Providence, Xavier, I think.

He writes a column for the Post or the Daily News during the NCAA Tourny, he is funny, kinda a "poor man's" Al McGuire, though Al was a lot more famous and funnier, also a better college coach. For my taste, I like Pete better.

With a bit of age on him, he right now is a cliche machine.

Gillen is a Brooklyn Prep alum

Absolutely, hope he doesn't take my post literally lol.
 
Just to keep us in our seats, that 7-0 run included a tough shot by wheeler and a travel that didn’t get called by Soriano. Let’s push this to 10 before the half
