Being my first post, due to the fact of d3hoops taking years to get my account set-up.Playing for Coach Mac at MU, he has never lost his cool in a game! Honestly he would never advise anything that happen last night! However, I would not want to be the team today in practice for what happen last night. They will run untill the sun goes down as well as up.

Who's going to make the coach run?



ok, two years ago you guys got pass the first round.  I'm one of the biggest marymount fans/alumni and there is nothing you can say to justify what happen last night. Coach Mac wanted to get the first tech and i can understand that. Why pick up another tech with five minutes to go when you're down only four? I dont care that MU lost but its the way we lost last night and to do this against CU. Back in the day we treated the Cu game like the redskins playing against the cowboys.

[MuMu]

exMu14, if it was like the redskins cowboys back then you should have played football. That is not how it has been since your era.

For the co signing, "who will make the coach run" you know what  I mean"or when you played you were just happy people would show up to practice during your era.
Thanks

Matt,
Who looks like the front runner this year team wise?

FINALLY - Congrats to Coach Gamber! I have certainly seen a lot of YCP basketball over the years and always respected what Coach Gamber (and his son, Dean) have put together up their in York. He has also always treated me with the utmost respect and taken the time to chat. 400 is a huge milestone... but I wonder if he will be around YCP to get 500??

D-Mac, I've already reserved the new Spartan Sky Box at the Grumbacher Center for the  February 5th 2012 game against Villa Julie where Coach Gamber will Pick up his 500th. Those who fail to plan, plan to fail. As a bonus we will also be able to congratulate YCP alum Brett Adams on his 200th win, which he will have just picked up in a game at UMW the week before.

Of course we wont be able to celebrate too much, because the right to have fun will have been taken away from us by President/Emperor Jeb Bush after he was sworn in two weeks earlier.

Oh yeah, and the power ball number will be 14-20-22-31-45 with the power ball # 05. And it might rain so take an umbrella.

I thought York was a solidly red place!

You're assuming that fun will still be legal until President Hillary Rodham.

MuMu, I'd say the top three this year are Mary Washington, Salisbury, and Catholic. Order TBD.  However, Hood has played very well so they're kind of a wild card.

I can tell and that's why they will never win the CAC MuMu. Three out of four years we reached the CAC final and the league was much tougher then.  The only banner i see on the wall at the verizon center is from 1999 with the 1st and only NCAA appearance.

Matt,
Mw should have guessed that with Mike Lee and company. It seems like MW,CUA always, and then the rest of the div pending.
Thanks

exmu14 lets stay as a team hopefully you learned that in your era or if not Might give you 30 alumni game and get the W.

Marymount called a timeout.  They did not substitute and did not indicate they wished to shorten the timeout to substitute.  Instead, they huddled up for a while.  Then, they broke and came out on the court substantially early.  It is my understanding that if they wish to shorten the timeout, a warning must sound (I think its something like 15 seconds) alerting the other team.

Actually Matt, the team does not need to indicate they intend on making the timeout shorter. The deal is... the team who called the timeout... controls the length of the timeout. Now... this may related to the problem you mentioned with the horn not being sounded for substitutes. The initial "warning" horn sounds when the one of the following happens: time is running out in the timeout (10 or 15 seconds remaining) or when the team that has called the timeout enters back onto the court (before the time runs out). No team has to tell a ref or the table they are going to shorten the time out. However, the clock operator has to pay attention (I suspect this was the problem) and sound the horn when the team breaks the huddle (only the team who called the timeout).

So, in this case... since Marymount called the time out and decided to break it early, the horn should have sounded and CUA given what ever the time allowed is (10 or 15 seconds) to return to the court. It doesn't matter if MU was using the timeout for a sub and then huddled for 20 seconds... so be it - they acted quickly enough to get some coaching words in and not give CUA a chance to huddle... that is actually a pretty smart move.

On the opposite side of things... at the SAL/GOU game last night... Coach Trevino called a timeout and the team quickly huddled up. But, before he called the timeout there was a foul and there were subs ready to enter the game. In the confusion of indicating the foul and waving the subs in - the ref MISSED the fact Goucher called a timeout. Then, instead of hearing Coach T once again indicated he called a timeout, the ref balked... and once again kept asking if a timeout had been called.

What happened next I would say was actually smart coaching... Coach Trevino changed tactics... indicated he had not called a timeout... the refs worked to clear the court of players and coaches for both teams and continue the game. After it was all said and done... Goucher had a quick 20 second or so timeout for some coaching... and was not charged a timeout. It was the refs fault for missing an obvious timeout call... but it was a great move by Trevino to avoid losing a timeout! Strange... but true!

As for my comment about Coach Lonergan and Coach Trevino arguing... I was trying to have a little fun looking back on the "good days" of when the real fun at CUA/GOU games was watching the coaches try and out-do each other. I had no intent to argue... just a flash-back - that's all!

"I thought York was a solidly red place!"

Matt,

The York area is solid red but we have a little blue haze on campus. Just a hazard of the business I believe.

[kitchenrat]

I thought York was a solidly red place!

You're assuming that fun will still be legal until President Hillary Rodham.

Those of us who came here from other places tend to have a bit of a counterintuitive way of seeing things. At least according to the locals.

[Matt Letourneau]

Well, like you say..."haze..." It should clear.

Compared to Goucher, though, York's probably a bright red fire.

[ycp]

Sometimes I feel a little outnumbered where I work 

You never know about those "crazy" people in other departments, like development and political science

[Matt Letourneau]

Yeah, well, I'm about to be outnumbered where I work, too, you could say...
