Drexel Postgame Thoughts...

I do think things have changed. They didn’t throw up all over themselves from April through July this year as they did the year prior.

Red’s the guy that assembled last year’s team. It was a catastrophic failure of talent evaluation and NIL fundraising. I’m very glad this past offseason he acquired guys who want to play defense.
That’s like blaming the manager of the A’s for not getting the top free agents. It’s a monetary market now. That said, he had to have enough guys to field a team. They weren’t an ideal fit.
Evidently, SU is better funded now, and Red was able to get guys more in line with his vision.
Also, he made a big change at S&C, and that has seemingly paid dividends.

Autry didn’t do enough fundraising work. It’s been well documented. He didn’t want to do it, and he thought he had enough. He was wrong on both counts.

I give him credit for recognizing his mistakes and correcting them this past offseason.
 
I was at the game- small overall crowd but almost all Orange!

Kiyan was great in first half. Love how he can finish with both hands. I’m surprised how good he was creating his own shot.

Kingz is tough. Got to the hoop, rebounded and played great D. If shot starts to fall like advertised, I think our fans are going to love him.

George every solid game.

Only negative was rebounding for me. Freeman needs to get some defensive boards. I don’t like how he fades away on the block as well. I’ll stop complaining because awesome win.

Best team in a long time. Athletically superior to the lower and mid majors again

Well this is a new thing for everyone. And that is why a business manager who uses analytics and metrics is the way to go.
 
Absolutely no reason to run down any player, or the team.

But also fair to point out we haven’t played anyone, including today.

Team looks improved.

Let’s see with live ammo.
 
Was at the game. Impressed by how athletic this team is. At times we were a bit out hustled and we need to rebound better. Freeman didn't have a single rebound until well into the 2nd half...that can't happen. Nice Orange crowd. SU needs to get this time back to MSG in a neutral court game.
