I agree with that completely. I'll tell you that I absolutely hated to play at CSC (the floor, the fans), loved to play at Curry (such a small gym), but playing at home with a packed crowd was the best.

I cannot believe that Gordon beat EC, ENC beat Nichols, and that Salve spanked Curry all in the same nights. all three of those games are crazy to me.

In the last 4 years I dont think that anyone has gone on a 20-3 run against Endicott. Thats a huge run. That run alone, could be a defining moment in both teams season.

I still think that the chance for the playoffs are very slim for the Crusaders. We'll see!!!

OK, I take it back. No Playoffs.
Is it me or is the CCC just getting worse. To see our best team get spanked by Springfield isn't a good sign.

Its pretty embarrassing to be quite honest. Wouldn't you agree?

You gotta Give ENC a little credit for sticking with CC. It looks like they are startingto get a little better.

But i'm not counting the $50.00.

Hoops Fan.....have you been to a few games this year?

$50 that ENC Makes the playoffs.

Who's in?

I agree with your thoughs of Zink's system. He likes to talk a lot about transition and pushing the ball but at the same time, his players dont seem to have the freedom to that. Hes like to have full control of his players and the game. By doing so, he has limited some of the players. If you watch Wynn, he lets his kids play. They are disaplined players and know what they are allowed to do and what they arent. With Zink, there seems to be a sense that the players are holding something back. Players play their best when they are comfortable and not afraid to make mistakes. When playing for Zink, sometimes you feel like your on eggshells. Bad shot or turnover you can be pulled.

I agree that he is a great man and that one day he will be a great coach. He defentially has the leadership skills and desire to be great. I enjoyed playing for him most of the time, but just like any player/coach relationship you have your moments.

It seems like it's been a pretty long rebuilding stretch for ENC. They better get things rollin soon and start to get competitive.

Can't argue with that.

Well it looks like ENC is in some real trouble. They lost 2 games over the break and in those 2 games nobody scored more than 12 pooints, nobody has more than 6 rebounds and nobody played more than 27 minutes. It seems that again they are lacking any on court leadership and a person to count on to score. Over the last 3 years or so, I think it always took ENC at elast 6 games before they grabbed their first win. It looks like that wont change.

Coach Zink, seems to still be a bit confused with his lineup. He has had just about a different starting lineup every game. The only good thing about this team is that they have no seniors and potentially can bring everyone back next year. In that sense, that makes this entire year just practice.

I hope that everyone enjoyed their holiday and John, tell Andrew that said Hi. I had a couple of conversations with him over the 2 years that we played against eachother and he seemed like a great kid.

Well guys its been a while. Chewning is back in the house. I missed you all. Not to get to personal but i just moved to NC and am living in the heart of the ACC. Big step up from the CCC. Anyway it looks like it is starting to get heated up in here already, which is nice to see. Be careful messing around with John. Most fathers dont like it when people bash their sons, I'm sure that you all can understand.

First and formost I would like to say "Hi" to some of my veterans in here.

Its nice to still see you guys in here.

As all of you know, i mostly will be talking about ENC and How we should all have great expectations for them in the future (us over here at ENC have been saying that for about the past 4 years, ever since we lost in the CCC champ or even sooner when we almost upset Endicott) Anyway, again...its doesnt look to good for us. We lost to Lesley in their 1st game ever, thats embarresing. And the Conn College wasnt even really a game from what I heard. "hey but we all go to college to get an education right?" Wrong, basketball in the CCC can be life at times.

My prediction this year is that again Colby will be in the finals and win it all. St. Clair will dominate. Hey John, Whats St.Clair planning on doing after colege? They got an awesome squad again and anyone who comes close to beating them should be satisified. Also, I have to give my credit to Curry College. Wynn has really bee outstanding for them. He keeps bring in the type of kids that will be great for his style of coaching and his program.

Who are some of the surprise players in the conference this year? Are their any?

Hope everyone enyoys the Thanksgiving Holiday and has safe travels. Coming from a true Naz Grad, be thankful for Gods grace.
