It's a road win...we have to win at home...and great crowd support behind the bench for the Explorers tonight...#BELIEVE Moving forward...we really need to win the remaining games against the lower tier teams. Games against Richmond, UMASS, Joe, Fordham. I mean, I realize we're bunched up with those teams, but I hoping the team can get it together for 40 minutes, and not hit a wall at the 30 minute mark and pull out some W's to kinda salvage the season. There has been some improved play of late, but tired of seeing leads blown on our part, and inability to come from behind, and get big stops down the stretch. There is the potential to finish the A10 regular season with 8 wins, but need more consistent play and some veteran leadership.

I agree with you, but we've already been instructed by the power-posters on this board that nothing matters this season, or even next, so why bother worrying about how they play or if we get wins?

Just think that winning the games you SHOULD win, goes a long way in building confidence, and taking the next step. Winning > Losing.

Those same "power posters" are the "know-it-alls" I refer to as the jock sniffers who claim they hang out at La Salle's gym all summer and foam at the mouth over 2-star recruits, calling each one a "steal for the program." They're also the same ones that get excited about a win over a Towson-type school and don't understand why that's lowering the standard.

I think you guys need to "sync up" and get your "message" straight because the ones like me who say this season's results "don't matter" also never claim to "hang out" at La Salle's ""gym"".

"Are you coming to my swim practice?"
"I'm sorry, honey, but what season is it?"
"Summer."
"And what does daddy do all summer?"
"Hang out at La Salle's gym."
"Exactly. See you in September."

Let me let you in on our secret... Explorertown has 50 regular members, nobody has any goddamn power here. Change both of their titles to "power-poster", please.

First goal for the team is 6 wins... I don't think we ever had less in a season. Second goal 11 or 12 wins. Third goal the highly improbable sweep in the A10 tourney.

Looks like Fordham almost pulled over on you what they did on Columbia at Rose Hill early in the season. They have a scrappy team.
