I don't think anyone is calling them impressive. If they are well they would be in the super minority. That said I don't understand how margin of victory is a tell in these two games. I also think personnel fluctuation has a heavier impact in a situation like we are in with a new coach and system. I don't agree on Bryant. We just were not good at all last year. Cincy had no issue destroying Bryant last year nor did Liberty. Our schedule last year saved us from another losing season. It was incredibly weak front to back.

I know you watch a ton of hoops and the game for years. I think everyone needs to acknowledge there is a bias in having watched SU play and college hoops in it's glory days for so long that tends to skew how we evaluate things now.

Lastly - in the two games to date I don't recall a quieter less interested dome crowd even with early season games. Crappy broadcast or not the energy is non existent. Even when we executed and had runs going in both games the crowd was  a bunch of zombies.
