Two wins so far. Really enjoying what I am seeing from this team.
I wish I knew what that tech against JMU was that gave Hunter McIntosh the chance to seal a five point possession and give Elon the lead. The broadcast team on FloHoops was useless.

Schrage and this team making CAA tourney time so much fun again. What an ending.
Good news is we don't have to deal with FloHoops tomorrow.
Go Phoenix!

We had no business winning that game. Simon Wright refused to have his career end because that's how we won that game. Woods with a huge impact on defense and some clutch 3s and then our only 2 inside driving layups to win the game. Crazy that Mike Schrage is 4-1 (and counting) in the CAA tourney. 2 years in and he has the 4th most CAA tourney wins among the 10 HCs. Going to be tough tomorrow with Ray and Kante on Hofstra but you can never count this team out.

Just another gutty performance today. This team has heart for sure when it comes tourney time.
Four wins in two years at the CAA tourney. We had one win in the previous five years. Outstanding job.

Great win today, especially led by our veterans.
It’s refreshing to see Wright, Hannah, Wooten, and Poser all playing key roles on this team. It’s not easy to buy into a new system with a new coach, but it’s great to see the talent they were evaluated to have by the old staff, shining through here under the new leadership.
For any other bettors out there, I put some money down with my local bookie for us to win the conference (at +3000) like I do every year - hoping that this could be the year it finally cashes in! Looking forward to the game tomorrow, think I might have to sign off work early and crack a few beers ahead of this game like the good old days.
Class of 82 Rise Phoenix!

Excited for tonight. Hofstra is a good team, so we will need to limit our turnovers and continue to stay hot from 3. Hoping that Burford can catch fire again and give us a dynamic playmaker outside of McIntosh.

Was forced to listen to the game on radio but what an exciting win. I believe that is 6 in a row. Lots of players contributing on any given night. Looking forward to watching on TV tonight.

Hey, JMU...don’t blow a 15 point lead. Just like we blew an 11 point lead in football. It’s simple, they did not close us out. Just like we did not close them out.
If you’re so upset with the CAA, leave. Period. Enjoy being irrelevant in FBS.
I’m no fan of the leadership of the CAA. We have crappy TV deals and exposure in big media markets but in the end don’t blame the refs for your choke job and use that as a reason to leave.

I really like what this team has done with two of our best players out for the season. I hope we get a fast start to the season next year. But for now, JUST FINISH!!

These boys answered the bell. Love the intensity coming from this team.
- Burford is a gamer. Absolutely fearless going to the hole. Love the way he attacked their big guys. - Ike. Just a junkyard dog on D. Love his on ball defense and willingness to take the three. - Hunter Mac. Liked that he fed the hot hands and didn’t force bad shots in 2nd. True sign of leadership. We’ll need him to come up big tomorrow. - Wright/Chuck: the glue that holds this team together. The fact we out rebounded their bigs and won the second chance points battle won us that game - Schrage. Job well done. It’s clear he’s instituted a strong culture. Love the guys on the bench being vocal as they have been throughout the season. Also I apologize for doubting you a few weeks ago.
Now let’s finish the job.
