Mason up 65-59 with 2:14 left.

They may be better than UVA right now.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Not sure we have an answer for Mason’s center…

Really weird lack of urgency from Maryland down 5 with less than 15 seconds.

RE: Other games - men’s Hoops
Mason looked like a slightly better version of UMd to me. They will try to feed the ball inside to bigs when they can, but also can hit open 3's.

Will be hard to us to win on the boards like we did against EKU. Friday night could be the toughest game on our schedule. Hope we pack the AUBC and make it a good game. A win would be huge.

RE: Other games - men’s Hoops
We are going to have our hands full with a team that shoots the 3 as well as them. Against Maryland, Mason shot 12-24. For the year, they are 46-108, which is just shy of 43% (We're shooting 32%). Nice win for those guys.

RE: Other games - men’s Hoops
On one hand, this will help our SOS which is great. However...I'm muuuch less confident about this game than I was. Let's hope that if they overpower us (if they can shoot 3's that good and their center is that solid...gonna be tough on Friday), that they really are that good and will just blow it up this year. What we don't have is a strong SOS. Mason and UVA could be our only top 100 wins. We either need them to be really good or for us to win out. If we lose on Friday (hopefully not), then we need them to be as good as possible...not many others on our schedule are going to help us.

It's GMU's first win ever against Maryland. Let's hope for the inevitable letdown.

Dukes can't make the mistakes they made against EKY when Mason comes to town, they looked solid tonight.

RE: Other games - men’s Hoops
George Mason looked like a solid and experienced team tonight. That wasn’t a fluke road win over Maryland and The Dukes will have their hands full Friday.
Time for the AUBC to earn its new nickname, whatever that is going to be.
JMU will need significant home court advantage to win this one.

Speaking of that, is JMU going to fix the seating arrangement and just earmark both baselines for student seating? The South baseline should have never been general admission in the first place. Why would you give the cheapest tickets ability to sit in the best seats on the front row? Makes no sense. Give it to the students and don’t even give anyone else an opportunity to sit there.

I’d hate for Mason fans Friday or UVA fans next month get there when the gates open and take seats in the general admission baseline.

RE: Other games - men’s Hoops
It just occurred to me, if JMU still gives the whole week of Thanksgiving off, attendance with students could potentially be low. I sure hope they keep the dorms open to incentivize students to stick around and attend. This should and needs to be a packed house.

I heard dorms officially close Sunday morning for those who wish to stick around for the basketball/football games. Kind of a catch 22 though since on campus students don't have cars so are beholden to buses/carpools/parents to get them home. Then again many parents would probably prefer to drive 2+ hours to grab the kid on a weekend morning as opposed to a Friday night after work in pitch black darkness.

Just curious, is this universally true? When I attended, I had a car while on campus. Granted, it was a bit of a hike to get to it, was in a remote lot and not parked at the dorm.

Oof. ODU built a brick house tonight losing 77-36 to Indiana State. Brutal Jeff Jones offense.

Elon getting waxed by WVU in the Charleston Classic. Maybe coach By can get JMU in that tourney next year since he was an assistant there. It is usually a strong field with one or two mid majors and the rest of the field are high majors.

RE: Other games - men’s Hoops
freshman have never had cars on campus. The sophomores on campus may have parking permits, and generally use the more distant lots as residents vs commuters (old baseball lot, 'Jimmy Johns' lot, etc).
