The guy's a proven winner and that makes up for a lot of past sins. Evidently, his approach to coaching and motivation was evident at Winthrop as well.

3star_recruit Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 1 hour ago, almaman said: he should of moved on when his stock was high Marshall was getting paid like a top flight high-major coach ($3.5 million a year) in a place where there was very little media scrutiny. For a guy with his temperament, it was the cushiest deal in college basketball. Imagine how disgusting his behavior must have been to mess this up.

Reinert310 Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 The Athletic has us ranked as the #2 mid major school in the country...behind none other than Northern Iowa. Something tells me, if we win our 1st game, these rankings might shift a bit. (Worth noting: they have Richmond 3rd, former member of our ‘20-‘21 schedule, San Diego State is 4th, Loyola Chicago 5th, Western Kentucky is 6th, Dayton is 7th, and St. Bonaventure is 9th) bauman, Slu let the dogs out? and MattyMo213 like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No word on TV for this as of yet. Only 8 days away. You’d think somebody would have it scheduled. Reinert310 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierPal Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 UMass on pause now. That puts them out of Bubbleville at Mohegan Sun. I saw two or three others opted out of Bubbleville yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papal Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 250 fans were about all we had at the old ARENA when Ron Ecker was coach and I would park 100 feet away and would sit in first 2 rows with my kids.

Strange that we probably have a home game at the beginning of Dec and no word at this point on fans, yes or no, and if yes, how many and how the lucky few would be selected. With the City reducing the accepted size of gatherings, even at houses of worship, I would think we will not be seeing any fans in the Fetz, at least for a while. I know the Ath Dept has a lot to be working on, but I am surprised that they have not put out any info to season ticket holders recently. My best guess is that the City leadership is causing the hold up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best guess is that the City leadership is causing the hold up. The City is the issue. The AD has submitted several alternatives for the City’s consideration. I wouldn’t count on any fans for awhile. HoosierPal likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowboy Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 -that's okay, we don't have tickets yet either which also makes me think no fans at least at the start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
