Re: Conference Realignment

Interesting read. I think there are a bunch of schools trying to evaluate their viability in FBS. I think that after the Big10 and Sec are done with adding schools, then the future of all the other schools will be clearer. Beyond the Power4, there will be a lot of soul searching. It will all depend ...

Re: Coach Tory Verdi

Pitt's only conference win was against a 0-14 BC squad. If the ACC implodes BC is in big trouble.

Re: Just Lovely

This is the first and only time I will say this. Bamford needs to go. Reyes needs to show leadership. UMASS has become a laughingstock and someone need to correct this.

Re: Coach Tory Verdi

If you read Verdi's profile on the Pitt website, it talks mostly about all his accomplishments at UMASS.

Re: Game 2, 2025: Bryant (H, 9/6)

Bryant finished the year with a strong 3-9 record. Any doubt how far UMASS has fallen?

Re: How many of these UMass greats have you seen play ?

Three of my favorites not listed are Alex Eldridge, Mike Pyatt and Jim Town. Also Harper Williams and Will the Thrill. That list is suspect at best.

As an aside, how is Jimmy McCoy's number not retired?

Re: Massachusetts or UMass

MASSACHUSETTS on all the gear. It takes a long time for people to make the connection and not get confused with Lowell, Boston or Dartmouth. I had a boss who thought Amherst College was UMASS.

UMASS should strive for a level of recognition associated with the state. No one should be confused what ...

Re: Massachusetts or UMass





A huge game in ‘76-‘77 was a Mike Pyatt buzzer beater to beat Rutgers, a year after Rutgers went to the Final Four. Rutgers has future NBA player and coach Eddie Jordan. Perhaps that is the game you thinking about..


I was at that game in the Springfield Civic Center. Fans rushed the court ...

Re: Cage memories - Help a Collegian writer

My first memory that made me a UMASS hoops fan was 12/1/76 against Penn St. My roommate and I were walking past the Cage and heard all the noise. We did not know there was a bball game going on but when we heard all the noise we had to go in. Of course it was sold out and no entry for us. We climbed ...

Re: Game 17, 2024-25: at George Mason (1/11)

Just got back from the game-first time I've seen them in a while. GMU's bigs were huge- height and weight. UMASS has little chance against them. UMASS can't shoot. If they has a reliable 3 pt. Shooter they would have won. Missed layups and free throws killed them as well. Nevertheless I thought the ...

UMASS- Lowell, the new flagship?

This is a great project for UMASS-Lowell, Massachusetts, and Lowell in particular. Maybe UMASS-Dartmouth can do something similar to help Fall River/New Bedford. As a strong champion ...

NIL

Who'd have thunk that schools might abuse the NIL to recruit players?? I'm shocked!
