    What do we want for our men’s basketball program

    I think Mr. Robins passed away and he was the connection that got the deal going for so long.

    Mooney--an under appreciated coach.

    Literally the worst troll job of all time going on here.

    OOC game experience survey

    I was just thinking about how I haven't any this year. Are we really not doing that anymore. I loved watching the highlights.

    OOC game experience survey

    We do satisfaction surveys at our company. Anyone who does them realizes the values lies in the individualized responses provide the most meaningful feedback in these surveys. Limiting that feedback to 100 characters is a deliberate choice.

    Happy to admit I was wrong about this. Playing SBU at their place has been a house of horrors for us, good to see us put that streak to end in an emphatic way. Also was nice to watch at the same time, VCU get put in their place by SLU.

    2025–26 opponent tracking

    Yes, the pressure Dayton puts on the ball at all times is refreshing to watch. With our deep rotation/substitution patterns we should be able to provide much intensity and pressure on defense than we do.

    2025-2026 - NET, Rankings, Polls, Awards

    Interesting observation. Our best win, our starting PG did not play in.

    That is a really good question.

    Hurley is one intimidating mofo to play or work for. He and Mooney are at the complete polar opposite of the coaching spectrum, leadership, and outlook for their program. If I'm picking a coach to lead my team I want someone who is probably 90% like Hurley to lead it and similarly I want...

    Almost every practice video we put out, seems like it is guys going through the motions of playing basketball. They lack intensity, real game like situations. I know we are just getting snippets of practice videos but curious as to why we always get the same snippets.

    Could be. I think had more to do with Tanner knowing Mooney's system better and Mooney being more comfortable with him because of that. I think it is a similar issue with Aiden/Tyne. But Mooney has to recognize and reward superior play in games much sooner in my opinion.

    What do we want for our men’s basketball program

    I think most of us who post on this board want a program like VCU has built. The problem is our administration/leadership/coach don't want it/can't achieve it.

    Mooney’s Coaching Tree (including former players)

    Parker was a Top 100 recruit in the country. Believe he was player of the year in the Metro area. So, not sure how much either us or VCU recruited him but he was largely out of our league. He went to NC State for 2 years, never really lived up to his recruited potential there.

    Exactly. Maybe just start our best players to begin with. I'm glad he finally replaced Tanner with Daughtry in the starting line-up. I have no idea why that took so long as Daughtry is such a better player. I can at least rationalize Aiden being a freshman and it being the PG position...

    If a guy score 7 or 8 points in a row, perhaps you adjust your regimented substitution schedule, at that time and let that player ride the heater a bit. That is my preference at least.
