They will score 80 a game The jays are -8.5 tonight...Yale LOVES slowing things down so if the Jays get out to a 10 point lead early I could see that being an easy cover. Watch WVU vs AM...This WVU team could be really good this year. Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Also, Sparty favored by 30 vs North Florida tonight...seems really really high. I could see that one being a 74-55 type of game. Quote Link to comment

spurs1990 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 (edited) I'm really excited to get some televised games! I'm all for optimism (First year with season tickets so this would be a good time for them to start making some noise!) but I think that needs to be tempered until they prove themselves in games that count. That exhibition was ugly. I get that starters were out but still. Copeland needs to knock off that rust, Jordy needs to be able to finish more consistently in the paint and pull help win the rebounding battle, and Palmer needs to prove he can put up these numbers night in and night out against tough competition. I'm also interested to see how Allen develops as the year goes. Edited November 10, 2017 by spurs1990 1 Quote Link to comment

No letting bad teams hang around this year Quote Link to comment

Of course they have to finish 1-14, but the question is if teams 1-14 this year are better, worse or equal to previous year's 1-14 teams. It has nothing to do with who finishes 1-14, it has to do with the quality of the teams in the order they finish not the name on the front of their jerseys. 1 Quote Link to comment

My dad & I have been going to NU Hoops for 40-ish years. I've seen coaches all the way back to Cipriano. Quote Link to comment

Makes me optimistic for year one. Definitely excited to see how this year plays out. Love basketball and excited to see a full home slate in person. Hopefully I can build a family tradition like you have done. 1 Quote Link to comment
