Take a closer look at the photo of the two players in the lower left hand corner. #44 is Louth C who is listed at 6-8 and #4 is Kyrell Luc who is listed at 5-10. Does Louth look 10 inches taller in this photo? It looks like about a 3 or 4 inch difference to me. Is the elongator working overtime at the Hart Center?
Wait-there's one more--in the upper right hand photo, doesn't 6-5 Bo Montgomery on the right look taller than 6-6 Judson Martindale on the left?
I grew 3 or 4 inches in college-maybe there's something in the food at Kimball working on some of the players

I believe it's the will of Coach Nelson; he's looking for a roster full of 6-6/6-7 athletic guys, like Denny Crum used to have at Louisville. So, some of the guys are being stretched to the max with the elongator, and some are being compressed a bit with some other sort of device.

I find the poll to be a bit deceiving. It implies there's this tremendous gap between third and tenth, and I'm doubtful of that. I get BU/Colgate at the top, and Navy to a certain extent, but i think it's a free for all after that.

I was hoping the Athletic Department would stream the practice tomorrow for people that live outside of the region or have difficulty with transportation. They could limit it by asking us to provide contact information- verify we are active with the school or program, and send us a code to watch. Might actually get more people back to games this year
However, it is what it is....

Your expectations are too high for a place that can’t get the hang of the new scoreboards.

NAD, So we can sign you up for the Brown scrimmage. Now we just need someone as beloved by UMass as you are at Brown.

Sort of serious question: I wonder if I can get into the Brown scrimmage? Since I’m on their athletic email list (they forgot I am associated with NAD!😊), maybe I’ll get an invitation.

Seriously doubt it - coaches lock down pre-season scrimmages pretty hard

If I am reading the numbers correctly, it is Caleb Kenney #35 dishing to #44 Louth-M Coulibaly. I have now seen one play from one practice and my excitement about the upcoming season has gone up substantially

Caleb showed nice playmaking ability here for a good sized(6’5”, 215) non point guard

Seriously doubt it - coaches lock down pre-season scrimmages pretty hard Yup, they have to. I am pretty sure they have to be secret and there cannot be an official score. "According to NCAA rules passed in 2005, Division I members can trade one or both of their allotted exhibition games against non-D-I opponents for a scrimmage “provided they are conducted in privacy without publicity or official scoring. Individuals other than athletics department staff members and those necessary to conduct a basketball scrimmage against outside competition may not be present during such a scrimmage.”' www.sportingnews.com/us/ncaa-basketball/news/ncaa-rule-on-secret-division-i-basketball-practices-hiding-from-public-media/knl7w0iuxjhyzk0ix7iwzb2y

Ken Pomeroy has the new season up on his site. He projects (just a starting point-gets adjusted as more games are played) Holy Cross at #322 and 10-19 overall. I don't think this is the final pre-season prediction as not all games are in yet

I don't think this is the final pre-season prediction as not all games are in yet HC has 29 regular season D-I games scheduled. Sounds like all of HC's D-I games are in the computation. Are there other schools with unscheduled games that need to be in the calculation?

Some games are missing from other teams, e.g. Army
