In response to Old Bear
O.B.:
In the interest of making a fair assessment of the beleaguered coach's work, I'd love to know exactly what words you can offer in defense of Engles as the superior game coach today. All I know is that Columbia had the lead at the half today; just as they did two Sundays ago at Fordham, and in so many other Jim Engles-coached Columbia basketball games. At the start of the second half, Delaware went on an immediate run. Engles waited till 15 minutes and 28 seconds were left on the game before calling a timeout- by then, Delaware had scored on 2 layups & 3 three pointers, and had limited Columbia to 2 made Mike Smith free throws; turning a 2 point deficit into a nine point advantage for the Blue Hens. Ultimately, just another moral victory for the Columbia kids; another loss by a razor thin margin for the team with Jim Engles supposedly on its side.
