Things have really lined up well to present a terrific opportunity for this program to seize the spotlight of a major media market in a big way when you consider the following factors
1- the Phillies, Flyers and Sixers stink on ice right now. The Eagles, while intriguing and slightly more enjoyable to watch than in the past 3 or 4 seasons, will be completely irrelevant by 12/15, if not much earlier.
2- the city sports fans and media quickly jumped all over the bandwagon last season in March and I imagine they will be looking for anything worthwhile to cover over the winter
3- Villanova is the only other team with understandably high expectations other than us. Temple plays in the weird new league with schools from all over the place bit no real natural rival, SJU is trying to build something and Penn is trying to get on solid footing.
4- we play an exciting and fun brand of hoops with 4 guards that can all make plays in a variety if ways
5- there are going to be almost 20 games on National TV, which means we should be on in a lot of bars in the area which will draw casual observation even of they aren't "La Salle" people and will provide plenty of footage for news and highlights without having to actually send someone to film 10 minutes and get one highlight.
If things go well, it could really pay off in a big way
