Siena Basketball: GMAC / Blackwell / AO

[rrlbees]

glad to see gmacs parents in the stands. dad had kidney cancer and had his kidney removed. seems to have been doing well since then.

 

[Newhouser]

i think he can play in the acc. all league performer? nope. starter? probably not but who knows. but he's got the skills and intangibles to play.

On effort and smarts he would have helped us a ton.

Siena to the title game Tuesday on ESPN2.
Whoever wins gets to the NCAAT.
Who would have thought when GMAC took over a 4 win team that he would make the NCAAT before SU.
Still has to win but has a damn good shot at it!

Well sure at that level but he’d be over his head with a P4 job.

Tuesday night 9pm ESPN2 v. Merrimack, who won the conference in the regular season and beat Siena twice (once in OT).

I like the extra day off before the championship game. Some rest and prep time.

Siena is down to 7 scholarship players. The starters played all 20 minutes of the 2nd half.

yep. amazing.

Yep hard to believe they have accomplished so much with so few players,

Just love the effort and it is obvious these players love playing together.
And in Doty and Shoats they have 2 on court leaders.
Shout out to Red - the intangibles really do matter.
I pray to God our next head coach realizes that.

Fun fact on Doty - he is 20 of 21 from the free throw line in the tournament

GMac to providence?

I’d be more worried about him to BC

 

[JarHeadJim]

Well sure at that level but he’d be over his head with a P4 job.

But would he?

 

[atlanticuse]

But would he?

like Autry wasn't in over his head?

 

[Cusefan78]

I’d be more worried about him to BC

Pitt next year.

 

[Orangefan1]

Why don’t we want him again? Just asking

 

[elimunelson]

If Gmac gets Siena to the dance and they win a few games we seriously think Syracuse won’t hire him?

 

[Irishsecra1]

I think the chances of Gerry being hired at SU this year are about the same as SU winning the ACC tournament.
I personally think Gerry will become a great coach one day, and what he has accomplished at Siena already is pretty darn impressive but, for now, Red has poisoned the well for any member of the Boeheim tree.
I do think if he advances to the NCAAT, there will be some interest out there.
Providence, BC both are on life support like Siena was.
