In response to maacballer
Actually Bucknell replaced a senior at PG with a freshman, but I've seen him play a couple of times and the kid looks pretty good.
That said, this is the game I feel will show us if Loyola is truly better this year. Agree with maacballer that both teams are essentially the same two that squared off at Evergreen last Dec, a game I think the Hounds should have won based on having more talent.
However, on the floor, Bucknell totally outplayed and outcoached them.
So far, Hounds have looked much better than I've seen in a while in terms of playing like they have a clue about what they want to do. Makes me wonder if D’Alessio has made a difference on the bench? Jimmy did not just wake up and become a better game coach, did he?
Thought D’Alessio was brought into recruit, but maybe he can coach ‘em up too? Have not seen a game in person yet, hard to assess that sort of thing during a TV broadcast.
Bottom line, Hounds have more talent than Bucknell, so if they can deliver a W on the road tonight, time to maybe start feeling good about a being a legit contender for the MAAC title this year? Wish this game was on TV.
