UMBC is going to 3-0 in conference, 84-68 over Hartford.

Hartford finished 7-11 from 3-point down the stretch to keep it under 20.

Darley with 29, Lyles 16, Sherburne 14 for UMBC. Ross with 16 and Carroll with 15 for Hartford.

On to Vermont for a battle of 1st place teams. Who would have thought ...

Congratulations to unh... Just shooting to well. Albany 8 ooc wins a bit of fools gold. This season is quickly turning into getting ready for next year. When was the last time UA was 0-3 to start conference play?

It's time for Albany to take a dip into rebuilding after a solid half decade. I still see talent on this team just not coming together right now. Key contributors are young and inexperienced and the rest of the roster around them trying to find roles. Yeah, Albany is down... The wind against Penn St and Siena plus 6 other ooc opponents were making the issues a bit, just need to keep learning, play together and maybe they can be ready to give someone a headache in tourney. This clearly isn't going to be one of Browns better teams but there is good talent here and good foundation to build in going forward.

2009-2010 was the last time Albany started out 0-3 in conference play. That team was a dud and I had higher hopes for them with Will Harris and Tim Ambrose there. Strangely enough, that third loss was to New Hampshire as well. If not for Binghamton withdrawing from the AE Tournament, Albany would have had to play in a first round game. Those were some darker days, for sure. I didn't expect this 2016-2017 team to be regular season champions or anything, but I didn't expect 0-3 either.

Hartford's John Gallagher needs to step down effective immediately or terminated at the end of the season. Seven years with a lot of losing and no promise for the future. I am surprised the Hartford Administration has allowed this much time in the first place. They need a new face and new coaching style that can recruit.

I hope he is gone sooner than later.

I wonder if any site has stats on what Albany's defense is like when Nichols and Cremo aren't on the floor? Albany's depth is probably their main defensive problem. Offensively, their two best players can't shoot 3s which puts a lot of pressure on scoring inside.
Yeah, I mentioned in another thread, it would be nice if the league kept some more sophisticated stats, but someone said I was just fishing for categories that UVM would lead... ;-)

It's got to be even more difficult for him losing to UMBC where you've got a first-year HC in Odom taking over a roster of a team that didn't win much, and now it's at the top of the league and potentially a 20-game winner- and knowing he's been at Hartford much longer and not really close to that.
