We are down 35-29 at the half, not terrible but let it grt away in last couple min of half. Cannot come out after half and fall further behind.

Terrible last four minutes ruined a fairly well played first half. Turnovers are the difference right now, Hens have committed 9 turnovers so far, Hofstra 1.

Guess we had an overall record improvement this year, but not much changed from last year in my opinion.

Listening to MI during the post game show last year, I really thought it was a wake up call and this year would be much better. I was fooled. Will be another interesting off season.

Deja vu all over again. Doesn’t feel like we made any progress at all this season. Similar issues as before…not big enough, not strong enough, and not tough enough. And we need to figure out a way to get more kids that can put the ball in the basket consistently. We all deserve better 8 years into the MI era.

Had a promising start to the season. Really expected more from this team. Another year to regroup and find out what went wrong and what we need to get better.
GO BIG BLUE!

8-year MI coaching record:

121 and 117 Division I record (.508 winning %)
63 and 72 CAA regular season record (.467 winning %)
1 conference championship

Those numbers just wreak of mediocrity. If the coaching seat isn’t hot, it sure should be.

Having a 6’9 guy afraid to mix it up under the boards isn't a good thing. I hope MI picks up at least 1 shooter & 1 big
