Siena Basketball: GMAC / Blackwell / AO

Siena stole one today, being shorthanded, playing sloppy, being in foul trouble, but they held on to beat American U. Tomorrow, they play their 3rd game in three days. Fortunately, they play Maine who is 0-8.


I know that even if Autry and the team fall on their proverbial faces and Gerry takes Siena to the NCAA tournament, he still won’t be our head coach. No matter how successful Gerry is, he probably won’t be considered by us for 5 - 10 years.
But damn, I wish we had chosen Gerry instead of Adrian.
I will always believe in my heart of hearts, that is who Jim saw as his successor.
And I hope all the best for him.
In many ways, he was the heart of the team- first as a player with the NCAA championship and that magical Big East run. He never stopped working and he never gave up.
Even as an assistant coach, I felt he truly bled for the team and was highly respected by the players.
So I will continue to watch and cheer Siena on.

As I will continue to watch and cheer SU and Red on.

By the way, I don’t think the SU basketball team is as bad as some people say.
They lost in overtime to the number 3 team in the country and was in the Kansas game up till the final minutes. Nothing to be ashamed of.
As to the Iowa State game, they had no chance playing a top 15 team with literally not a day off. Not to mention a pissed off team who took out their understandable frustration out on us.
And all without Donnie Freeman. I will wait to see how they do in early conference play before I make any determinations.

Holy shot, I love GMac. Always did, always will. That's no disrespect to Red or however else you want to misinterpret me. :)
Still love Cuse too!

Naw, there are still a few of us that wish much success for both head coaches. In a perfect world, Red and Gerry will face each other in the NCAAT.
 
Is Sunday's game vs. Maine on TV? The ESPN app doesn't list it as being on ESPN+.
As far as what's published, that's correct. It looks like the only ones from this three day Feast Week tournament from American University that were TV broadcast were the games that AU were involved. Whereas, the three day tourney from Lafayette, that LeMoyne is playing in, every game is on TV.

It does not appear to be on TV. Their gameday X post doesn't include TV. But it does include the link to the radio broadcast and the stat site. They usually post in-game updates on X.

Maine does have Cooper Flagg's brother Ace on the team. Also, former Siena player Killian Gribben from Ireland, who happens to be the boyfriend of a friend of mine from Liverpool.

Siena opened up as 11 point favorites and are currently between 9 and 10.5 depending on the book.
