Pikiell Named National Coach of the Week

We are the rescue dog that everybody wants to love. We just have to give them a reason, and we are starting to.
 
No idea what Hoop Dirt is but I like it. Nice article on The Athletic (pay sports site) today too.

Don’t lose to Stony Brook!!!!
 
Now we all have to see how he gets this team ready to play Stony Brook after such a win.
The vibe which seems to now be resonating with the announcers and writers is getting louder and louder about Pike. Kind of reminds me of how things started to go with Schiano after he got his players going.
 
Hes the man. Even got my gf who never watched basketball to be in love with the team. Along with my youngest brother. Setting the stage for a ressurgence.

Lets go pike.

I have said something similar on the RT and the Football Board all the time...

We just have to do a little around here and people will start to notice. If we got the same or even a little less success/results in the revenue sports of MBB and Football like we have in Wrestling and Lacrosse...watch what happens.
 
Some how I think we are just getting going. We can improve much more in playing and recruiting. I loved the hire in March of 2016 and still do. Coach has a well thought out plan for our team. SHU fans don't like to admit it but they are worried.One guy saying that next year they will have 3 guys better than anyone at RU I just think is way off base. Powell is very good but he took a really cheap shot at Eugene with 3 seconds left. Our guys controlled their emotions in what could have become an ugly situation. This reminded me of the mugging that Herb Pope gave Dane Miller several years ago at the buzzer when he tried to dunk the ball. SHU always seem to have some of these type of guys. Rodriguez has tried to instigate a fight several times. One example recently was the Rhode Island game. I would think Willard should have a better handle on his guys. Just play the game. SHU guys did so much smack talk during our game. It was hard to believe. I'm glad the good guys won.
 
Losing to RU was definitely f***ked up. :chairshot:
Maybe you can now stop your snarky , condescending posts about our Rutgers team that caused your team to wilt like a flower in crunch time. The crap you were spewing on your board was distasteful and arrogant. Glad you got your comeuppance. Guess what? It will be coming every year as these two teams will battle to the wire like it has almost always been in the history of the rivalry.
 
Coach of the Week? Oh my god ... Hey, I'm all for positive publicity, but coach of the week just screams to be made fun of. It just does. Let me guess -- the Wofford guy will get it this week?
 
Especially some of their clown fans who thought we were like FDU.
