Halftime of GMU SLU just showed 34,32,31,30 as top 4 but wasn’t up long enough to see the games. I think one was 1950. And one was Duke.
Looks like Kentucky over LSU in 1994 after down 31.

Drexel coming back from 34 down against Delaware in 2018 is the record. Duke came back from 32 down to Tulane in 1950. And in the Mardi Gras Miracle of 1994, Kentucky came back from 31 down to LSU with just 15:34 left in the game.
Not having success finding others larger than ours.

Duquesne overcame a 30-point, first-half deficit to become just the fourth team in Division I history to come back from at least 30 points down to win a game.

Egad.
First post the entire season. Haven't paid much attention at all this season. I glanced at TV scoreboard and saw something like 35-10 or something close to that? Thought the boys are playing well and good for them regardless of having Mooney as coach. Just saw 79-77 on computer and instantly thought maybe a prior game not even remembering Duquesne as today's opponent. Going out for night so will see later all the disgraceful details.
Will no doubt check-in next day or so to read plenty of interesting/entertaining posts. Any basketball program that main priority was a successful B-ball team, their AD would release the HC of his duties sometime tomorrow. In this case maybe because of 20+ years, politely say Mooney will become head of B-ball operations though knowing only as a figurehead. Always thought Mooney would make a great politician.
Anyway is there a word greater than debacle to describe what occurred today? Feel for you alum and all die-hard Spiders fans here who have backed the program for far too long without getting the same passion from the leaders in charge of UR achieving basketball excellence!!!

Dale Brown kept coaching LSU after giving up that lead in 1994.
This appears not to be a fireable offense

Some may remember Delaware’s first game that season…

Most ridiculous lost i have witnessed all year. Why put the ball in Johnson's hand vs giving to AJ or AA to drive and at last possession where is Walz to matchup with Dixon and Tyne is in to either get shot over or taken to the hoop. Coach made the lineup and though players did not execute, Mooney chose the cards to play. Thirty point lead and lose. That should make ESPN highlights.
Largest come from behind in A10 history, only 4th time in Div 1 History, only 4th time in 320,000 NCAA Div 1 games. Yeah it has happened before! LOL!

We have to come back for more
Rest players for 5 days stretch. We haven’t won back to back games in the conference after the first week. SMH. Like we are going to get to 5 days. How about win 1 since 2023. Just one let’s not worry about 5
It's hard to win on the road.

"The game got very physical"
"We didn't do good enough job handling the pressure and intensity"
No shit Sherlock. YOU COACH THEM ( and all of your teams) TO PLAY SOFT, you idiot! SOFT SOFT SOFT
And where are you Grant Golden with all your "real fans"? Where are all the mooney lovers?
And honestly, anyone who donates any money at all to this program is part of the problem too....ANYONE
