As an aside, looks like the pitch forks are out for Nathan Davis after today’s blowout loss to Lafayette. Bucknell falls to 0-3. It’s been a gradual decline for Bucknell since the 2017-18 season when they went 25-10. Coaching Dave Paulsen’s guys was fun for Davis. His own guys, not so much it would appear. That’s for sure. He inherited more talent than any other incoming coach in patriot league history. But unfortunately he has done a very mediocre recruiting job and he is not a good bench coach. At the end of the season it is possible he will be on the hot seat.

He won a D3 National Championship at Randolph Macon and one of my AAU players was a big piece of that team. He says Nate is a great guy and a good teacher, but gets caught up in the movement of the game.

And to think one poster here told us how HC screwed up by not hiring Davis some years back. I know, right?! HC was so much better off with the retread who won 38.9% of his pL games and left behind a roster in ruins!

Good day for road teams (all of which bussed to the host school this morning except Colgate I would imagine) - all 4 won and only Lehigh was a home court winner among the women’s games

My guess is we won’t see much of Louth before Feb 1st. He has to get in basketball shape and learn the system. I don’t think it would be fair to put him out there for some time. Life ain’t fair. We need some big bodies on the quick. I think Rabinovich, at this stage of things, deserves multiple chances to show what he can do before the coach turns to Coulibaly. I realize it’s not the latter’s fault he couldn’t enter the country but the former has been working the “grind” for months. I also wouldn’t place much weight on 5 minutes of game time. Of course, ideally, they both turn out to be factors.

Just occurred to me that it’s been a while since I was pumped up on a Thursday to watch HC play on a Saturday. Has been fun to watch the guys compete so far. Seems like we shouldn’t have many lopsided losses with this crew. Yes, I am aware that I may have just jinxed us. You should have stopped after the bolded and underlined statements!

Just saw the HC bus on 84 at the NY/CT border on my way from NYC to Danbury. Go Cross Go!

I knew I shouldn’t have written it. I accept full responsibility. For today, I will say that I don’t see any way we keep it close in an effort to go with the reverse jinx.
