Here to discuss all things Mason Basketball, and occasionally post pictures of my dog.

I really hope the Europeans are all renting F150s for their World Cup road trips. If you are going to experience American culture, do it all the way.

Spike Lee might just have a heart attack this week.

[tblack33 @tblack331]

@MatSheltonEide Sounds difficult, best we can promise is blow out a D2 women’s college.

[A10_Vault @A10Vault]

✍️ 4-year ranking shows a clear top tier. VCU leads at 56-16, followed by Dayton (50-22), Mason (46-26) SLU (43-29), & SJU at 41-31

The bottom of the 4-year table, Davidson & Fordham both finished 29-43, URI went 25-47, & La Salle (23-49)

I’d kill for Mason to pull just 2/4 of what VCU already has scheduled. Might start boycotting our games against the blind and deaf sisters of the Chesapeake Bay.

[MatSheltonEide @MatSheltonEide]

VCU’s non-conference looks loaded next year. Maui Invitational, at Memphis, at Santa Clara, v NC State. Who else?

[tblack33 @tblack331]

@RMcCafferty_98 This was a drive home in silence type of ending.

[tblack33 @tblack331]

Scheduling alliances are a must if the A10 is serious about multibids in the current climate. @A10MBB needs to make something like this happen, help out your teams.

[3 Bid League @3BidLeaguePod]

My semi-realistic, won’t actually happen non-con scheduling hope:

The Atlantic (10)/Pacific (12) Challenge

With both conferences now having deals with USA Network, we need a quintuple header on an early Saturday when the schedule is normally barren

Back us up @coachmosser

[tblack33 @tblack331]

@WestPineBills Meanwhile somehow Billy Lange made one of the better schedules in the league and somehow GW still lands a few P5s a year, and obviously Dayton and VCU schedule extremely well.

[tblack33 @tblack331]

@WestPineBills This has been a common discussion at Mason for years now. There’s some weird factor to scheduling, because if you get good they won’t schedule you because they’ll lose, but if you are bad they won’t schedule you because you don’t help and they still might lose.

[tblack33 @tblack331]

Great signing. Feels like the roster is pretty much rounded out at this point, have to think if we sign anyone else it’s going to be a flyer on someone for depth. Minutes are pretty much spent.

[Barstool GMU @BarstoolGMason]

LETS GOOO. 6’8 F Elijah Jones has COMMITTED to GMU. He is transferring from UTEP where he averaged 13.1 ppg. WELCOME HOME

[tblack33 @tblack331]

Well this was a bit unexpected. Last week or so has been tough for guards who didn’t sign early.

[Inside Maryland Sports @Terrapins247]

NEWS: Former Maryland guard DeShawn Harris-Smith has transferred to Delaware.

[tblack33 @tblack331]

@MasonFanatic The second one is wild, reads like a script for a foreign scam call.

[tblack33 @tblack331]

Same prediction I had for them last year, they’ll be closer to the pillow fight than a double bye. Caputo is a bed shitter.

[JPR @Scouting_Col]

What Chris Caputo has done to reload his roster at GW is noteworthy.

Terrance Arceneaux, Felix Kossaras, Omari Witherspoon, Dylan James, Malachi Arrington, Ryder Frost.

Unreal class. A-10 favorites for me.

@mattylight1991 @mkaufman1 @jmcconnell70 @3BidLeaguePod Jim in the parking lot of a Randolf Macon summer practice with a Mason polo in his back seat

[tblack33 @tblack331]

@flyer_focus Yall are certainly putting something together, couldn’t tell you for the life of me how Grant plans to employ it though.

[tblack33 @tblack331]

What lineup on earth is Dayton about to trot out with all these bigs? AG is collecting bigs like Thanos. This can’t be cheap.

[Joe Tipton @JoeTipton]

Quinnipiac transfer forward Grant Randall has committed to Dayton, source told @On3.

The 6-9 sophomore averaged 11.4 points and 6.6 rebounds per game this season, leading the MAAC in offensive rating (126.7).

@jholman34 Lots of number 3 jerseys in EBA next season.

[tblack33 @tblack331]

Me when I saw Jalen Haynes signed with Dayton.

[tblack33 @tblack331]

@CoachTonySkinn hasn’t unblocked me yet so I’m just going to assume that his hacker has recruited all these dudes here and signed them on NIL promises of millions in crypto if they just click a few links.

What would you rather have, 500k now, or 4 million in bitcoin in 5 years?

[tblack33 @tblack331]

@TheJJChiles Never touched the court at Cinci, barely touched it at Tech, he started almost every game was a first team guy here on our team that shared an A10 title. It’s the game now but the bulk of his development and production happened here.
