But I was told once people saw this team play they would want to keep coming back?

I have a lot of thoughts but I’ll sum it up this way, I’ve seen a lot of bad basketball as a UMass fan but I can’t think of a squad that left me feeling more depressed. Immediately regressing to this leaves me more worried than ever that moving to the MAC will be a death sentence for the program

This game is a nice preview of what it will be like to be in the MAC and routinely playing KenPom 300+ teams nobody gives a shit about in front of about 1,300 people

This is some ugly basketball

If I had a dollar for every time Tessitore said UGA locks up a playoff spot with a win tonight, I would have enough money to have UMass athletics actually care about my opinions

This might be the worst offensive team ever assembled

Mullins East

I swear this athletic department doesn’t think through the impact of anything they do. You can’t tell the players the collective is gone without a corresponding plan on how you handle that for the fans/alums. This is very basic stuff they keep screwing up

If anyone is looking for tickets I have 3 extras for Harvard tomorrow

The revolution starts now. They’ve killed this athletic department

This team is very flawed but there is a clear 7 man rotation that would be competitive. The coach refuses to play that lineup. Unless he does it’s going to be a long sad swan song in the A10

This is one of the worst assembled rosters I can think of. I wait all year for hoops season and I can’t stress how draining it is to not even be at Thanksgiving and it feels like a lost season

UMass play the right lineups and don’t start the game looking like shit challenge (impossible)

Made it just in time from Manhattan. Hope you enjoyed the game last night. Phone died on me so I couldn’t text you

How do you figure out the right lineup in the second half of last game and then just not use it this game?

Also en route to Yankee Stadium

That’s why you can’t fuck around with lineups

8/18 FT shooting

Curry left the game with an injury

It took 11 minutes and change of this half before we saw the right 5 playing together. In under 3 minutes the game is now tied. It’s not hard

Just play the right players man. We only get so many of these games

0, 7, 11, 4, 1

2 and 23 off the bench

Ride that 7

Boy it sure is curious how we are on the third straight game of just sucking to start the game and yet zero adjustments are made to the starting 5

Usual spot in E

Shoutout to all the pencil necks on this app who surely couldn’t manage to do better than the guy running the worst special teams unit in football

It’s actually just footage of me remembering what conference UMass basketball will play in next year

Haven’t seen the numbers but gut from being there was Rivera played too much and Nate and Jayden too little. In the 2H run it was Jayden challenging our guys to get locked in. The d started playing well & then Nate sparked the offense & we cut the lead and had a shot to win it. More of that please

Nothing like driving 7 and a half hours round trip to watch UMass lay an egg in the first half but then cut it to 5 late before wilting again. They desperately need to figure out the slow starts or it’s going to derail this season
