The Hall

 Can we beat them?

Absolutely. They are playing well. But, its all about matchups and they don't have the type of team or have a type of player that will physically dominate us.

You must have missed the game against Uconn. Herb Pope had 15 pts and 8 rebounds. Drummond had 4 points.
The Hall's starting five is clicking on all cylinders right now. Hope they blow a fuse by the time we play them.

Very good player...not going to physically dominate us...like some of these off the chart shot blockers have...
 
Hall reminds me a little bit of our team last year. They have a couple of seniors that are just getting it done and putting the team on their back. That being said, we can take them.
 
Can we beat them - yes. Are they a better team then we are right now - yes. Willard is an excellent coach and he has SHU playing good ball.  
 
 I don't think Williard is a good coach at all, Iona has improved since he left. Seton Hall is getting great play from Pope and Theordore, which nobody thought would happen. If you can stop those Two, they can be beaten pretty easily. Syracuse did just that. Now, not a lot of teams have Syracuses' talent.

So Iona improved because Willard left but SHU is "getting great play from Pope and Theodore which nobody thought would happen" and Willard had no influence on their improvement? I think your logic is just a bit flawed, I also think clearly Iona has better talent than when Willard was there two years ago and there is the rub, can Willard recruit at the BE level? We shall see, but he is an excellent coach. Finally, there are many, many college teams that can be beaten if you stop their two best players, just as there are many, many college teams that lose to Syracuse.
 
Hall is better than us right now.

We "can" beat anyone, but they will be favored over us based on everything so far this year. 

Willard can coach. So can Rice.

It is better when the three NYC area teams are good than when they stink which mostly has been the case.

You forgot the addition of Momo Jones to Iona. Never hurts to add a high D1 player if you're a midmajor team.
 
 I recall a few posts recently suggesting we break away from the football schools and drop Seton Hall from the the conference.
Looking at the current standings, it would appear we should kick out vanillanova, not the Hall.

Or maybe kick ourselves out? :(

Was going through a brain freeze as to the name but he's certainly one of the reasons I mentioned better talent.
