I have to admit it was difficult to listen to that 3rd quarter. However, if this team plays as it did in the 4th quarter (with contributions from the frosh) it could be a good year.

Shouldn't we be beating Assumption by a larger margin or am I wrong about that?

rgs, congratulations - you win the prize for most consecutive posts for any exhibition game in the history of Crossports. I love your positive attitude even when it's not justified - 'difficult to listen to', then '"could be a good year" - there are 353 teams that 'could' have a good year.
this program has been down for awhile and the coach is already slotting his team in the 'middle of the pack' position even with the preseason 'poy'. Let's see how things progress against is weak ooc schedule and I'll be ready to 'give another hoya' when we see this thing turned around.

This will, I fear, be another live or die by the 3 year. Hitting them in the 4th quarter made us look like a different team. We’ll see.

Sorry, not too impressed. HC with Pre season POY against D3 team should not have been close

FWIW Assumption is D2

And not a particularly good one. The Greyhounds were 10-16 last year, lost three of their top five players, and are picked to finish sixth this year among the eight teams in the Northeast Division off the NE10.

Close win over weak D2 Assumption does not augur well for remainder of season. Saw that BU just hired former UConn assistant as their new head coach. With exception of Manis, recruiting has been abyssmal.

HC got some sought after recruits in the group you call "abysmal." Did you see any of them play in high school? ...or is this just one more "no matter what HC does it is no good" types of post?
