As for asking asst. coaches for help and input isn't that why they are there

It's a smart man who solicits others' perspectives, who isn't convinced he knows it all. We all have blind spots. Heck, I've even got a bald spot but wouldn't have known had my wife not penned a sketch of me from my backside while I was sitting at a computer.  :)
On Saxon Warriors! On to Victory!

how does being from canaseraga make me a campbellsavona fan club member?
besides newman is doing as well as a freshman can. he'll be a good player for years to come. i don't see where hes being mistreated. I don't remember when starting 22-27 games and averaging 25 minutes and almost 7 points a game for a freshman guard qualifies as poor treatment. call me crazy.

Just a hunch based on that poster's background.  No one is anonymous on these boards.

FA91 and Super:

As the only two apparently rational Fisher fans (seeing as how Tags, Booby and Upstate appear to be one sporters) what do you think of the Kornaker talk?  I mean the guy's record seems to speak for itself to me.

This seems a little short sighted dont you think. While I agree some Fisher fans a a little ambitious there are more than two rational fans. I don't think that Fisher b-ball fans are much different than Utica fans, or IC football fans (see the football boards after the third loss this season). Some Fans sound crazy, but they are just passionate. Nothing wrong with that. 

Eveyone thinks their team is better than they are. Everyone thinks their team has a chance to win. What is wrong with that?

As for Fisher fans not being used to success. the basketball team has gone to the NCAA 13 out of the last 16 years. That is a lot longer run of success than most people on this board have payed attention to DIII basketball. The success of the football team is relatively new, but other than that most sports have gone on as usual for a long time.
GO FISHER!!!

I think it is poor sportsman ship to not accept the bid...the seniors deserve one last hoorah...Utica would have clearly been the #1 seed and would ave had home games...to sit at home and pout because you choked at the end of the season is wrong

No, I don't believe poor sportsmanship is the case. I think it is a matter where school and academics override the ECACs.

keystonelight

i agree. its time for mid terms at most schools. if i'm a coach i decline the bid also. talking to players who have been there they'd rather not play in the ecacs anyhow.

superman57

I'm sorry for many of these players it is the last time you will ever play basketball...take the oppurtunity and win the ECAC's and do NOT give me the acdemics excuse because we all know that Utica would not decline an NCAA's bid if it was offered so don't give me that sh*ty excuse...

You're the only dood on the board that doesn't know & accept that '57 can't spell.

Poor grammar and horrible spelling... it's just how he rolls.

keystonelight

players i know from more than one school think the ecacs are a joke. no joke utica would accept an ncaa bid. thats the big dance. not some pointless tourney.

DirkDiggler

Superman, have you ever played anything competitive?

superman57

at some point it becomes about the love of playing the game...you don't see those other 8 teams at home pouting that they didn't make the ncaa's they are happy to be able to play a little longer.

It seems like everyone already has Fisher meeting UR on March 3rd. Plattsburgh State might have something to say about that. Myself, I would like nothing better than to see the Cardinals playing the Cardinals on Sat. nite.

superman57

I think some fisher fans including myself would like to not have to see UofR, but they are a very dangerous team

superman57

and what does it matter if I have never played sports...doesn't mean a thing...and for the most part people agree with me that if Utica was offered a spot in the ECAC's they should play....in my opinoin if you can physically play and your team is being given a chance to play don't take it away from the seniors who might never play again and play the game

Ok Dirk-
I did play varsity sports for fisher - although in the dark ages-and i agree with super that turning down the ecac's is nuts - in any sport!
