Really want to go to this game too bad I have a class smack in the middle of it :yell:. Would have liked to get a free LARGE blackout shirt (go ahead...get some while it's hot!).:angry:
 
I was looking ahead at South Carolina to see how their season was going and I noticed that they beat Rider. It got me thinking about our old friend Nurideen Lindsay. His stats through seven games played thus far read like this: MIN / 205 FGM / 34 FGA / 64 FTA / 33 FTM / 46 3PM / 8 3PA / 20 PTS / 109 OFFR / 3 DEFR /21 REB / 24 AST /16 TO / 35 STL / 8 BLK /0

I was surprised to see how much better Nurideen's shooting stats were especially from three point range. I liked Nurideen's game and thought he had a lot of potential. However I thought his outside shot was pretty weak. So far he has shown significant improvement there but his assists to turnovers ratio has not been good. I think at the end of the day when he left so abruptly it gave both Harrison and Greene the opportunity for valuable minutes and sped up their development greatly. It has left us with two very good second year guards, who I think will comprise one of the better back courts in the conference.

See now lets all give Joe3 a +1 karma for this since not only is he growing up in front of all of us but he is growing out a pot belly like the rest of us lazy internet guys and has gone from medium to large.

+1 Joe3 :)

Mr. Lindsay lacks the abilities to be a big contributor on a team in a major conference..

Lindsay's talent is better suited for the Rider University Bronco's and competition in the MAAC.

In undergrad that would be something I'd do, but I haven't missed any classes in grad school and don't plan on it. It's different missing classes that will prepare you for a specific career than some elective like "Psychology of Women" which I did take by the way lol.
 
I thought this might be the game we would breakout the grey uniforms some have mentioned are going to debut this season.
Guess Thursday won't be the game for that.

Take you all back to March of 1981-President Reagan gets shot-it is decided that NC game between NC and Indiana will be played as scheduled. I am in law school with a monday night class Trial Practice with a Federal Judge as my prof. Showed up to class and asked the Judge to excuse me from class after allowing me to go first with my presentation because I was upset at the president being shot (which I was) and thought the class should be cancelled. Judge Rice said he would allow me to leave as long as the reason was not to watch the NC game. I assured him it wasn't, got home, waited a few minutes and said Oh well, since I am home I may as well watch the game. Needless to say all my friends were quite jealous. On a serious note thank goodness the President survived what was a much more serious situation than we were told at the time.

Interesting that your professor (Judge) knew about the game scheduled. That proves the SJ basketball team had a real presence on campus back then. These days our professors would have no idea how the team is doing, who they are playing, etc. unless there are a few older ones who have been here since say the 80's. I must say I envy not being a SJ student those days...it was much cheaper, the team was at its peak, and the student involvement seemed very dedicated.

I hear ya

Grey uniforms? sound sick!

it would be great if they sold jerseys to the public other than a pressed on number 11.
 
To me only this game and the San Francisco game pose threats to us. Sheds a bit more importance on Thursday night compared to the games against the NJIT's of the world. If we can run the OOC schedule we will set ourselves up in decent shape heading into BE play, probably even get some votes just outside the top 25

No one on our schedule warrants a single Top 25 or outside vote.

My God that must have been one tough and confusing class....

You seem pretty certain, even a little defiant on this. We go 10-2 meaning 8 straight wins and you feel the need to challenge a statement that out of 72 writers and however many coaches, not a single one will write us in the #25 spot. Have you seen how many teams get additional votes in these polls?
