I came down here from Northern VA. Elon up 8, then went cold and Towson boat raced them. MM had no sense of urgency and just watched it all unfold. I was able to rove around and I got a few photos I'll post up later but no one really cares to see shots after a loss. Headed over to UNC tomorrow to see the 'Heels play Davidson, then back to Elon over to Cutting Board for dinner so at least I got that. Plus it stopped raining.
Have tickets to see JMU but not sure if I'll stick around.

Let's not forget half of Towson's team transferred out last year. They still managed to beat Matheny's experienced team by double digits on the road. I guess this is the "wow factor" they kept talking about when the Schar center opened. 0-6 against D1 teams in the new arena. I also have season tix and made the hour trek from Raleigh for each game (except Central Penn) this season and last night was it for me. They lured us all in with the new gym/UNC game and then yanked the rug out from us when we got there. I knew they would be bad, but never expected them to be this awful. Won't be back this season. Baseball can't come soon enough. Go Phoenix!

I have not posted much this year because I have nothing to add. There is no debate. This is a bottom 4 team with first round exit written all over it. The talk at my work is Matheny lost the team this past month. Matheny lost the team when his players saw Central Penn and Milligan on the home schedule. No wonder students do not come to games no more.

Burlington Times News article on the game MM said "We are a team very much still under construction. We're playing like a young team right now because we're playing pretty well for 20-25 minutes."....WHAT - YOU START THREE SENIORS!!! - FOUR, UNTIL RECENTLY. What about the other upper class men lead teams that had similar results (play pretty well for 20-25 minutes).

Coach doesn’t give his players any idea of how they should play how does one get 25 minutes of pt against umkc and then none the following game. What do you think that does to a players mentality. Get this clown out of Burlington

How many guys on our roster actually appear to be Division 1 basketball players? I'd say about 6 max, the majority of our scholarships have essentially been participation trophies.
This team is incapable on the boards, and has zero athleticism. That game last night was our most winnable we will have in conference team, Towson is terrible. Is there any information on how many years Matt has left under contract, because this is embarrassing.
Also, any early thoughts on coaches for next year?

Team has no interior presence... We average 1.93 blocks per game as a team... There are 52 individual players in the country that average more than that. Talk about no interior presence. How can this team have so many short comings that the coaching staff never addressed when recruiting. Matt just can't get enough of his "scrappy" undersized and unathletic players. Except, scrappy just means they aren't good enough. Responding to the previous post, I think a good majority of our team is comprised of players who had no other scholarship offers.

I'm disappointed too. Obviously I don't get to every game but I experienced this under the Paul Hewitt era at George Mason and four years later, the program is still recovering. And they went to a Final Four twelve years ago. I thought MM would get two seasons when the team went to Schar to recruit but if this continues, they have to let him go. They beat JMU today much like the way Mason beat them earlier this month. Up by a lot, got careless and let them back in before winning.

I couldn't believe we took Northeastern to overtime. I watched the entire game. How did that happen? I missed a majority of the Hofstra game but we were in the lead. I felt there would be no way with Elon's roster we would be competitive in either of these games. I guess the analysts are correct the CAA conference is down this year. I see hope Elon could be a spoiler in the tournament because we are capable of playing with any team in the conference on a given night. I am telling you "There is a chance." Dumb and Dumber
