MVS plays 30 min. and has a stat line of 0 pts. and 1 assist. Is that for real?

Yes, MVS had a bad night against Iona, but, did you also notice that he scored 16 against Rider, 16 against Niagara and 14 against St. Peter's. And did you notice that MVS is now shooting 50.8% from three point range for the season. Take away last night's ridiculous 4th road game in a week (who does the scheduling), and I would say MVS has put together a nice offensive stretch here...

Must of hit a nerve with somebody close to the player. I was just stating its hard to believe that anyone could play that many minutes and produce those numbers. MVS has been having a very solid year. Lets not all be so sensitive. By attacking todd who has been carrying us the last 6 games and osullivan who is seriously injured is twisted. These players are trying their best, lets support them.

Dont worry Mrs MVS everything will be alright. Your son is a big boy now, has to take the good with the bad. Dont blame everyone and everything for a bad day. And dont hide behind fake screen names, anyone can do that. Why dont you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills, you know the one, Dr.Everything will be are right. Maybe he can help.

it is for real...it was a bad game for him (the first this kid has had in a while)...off night...I laugh though because its funny to see so many doubting people out there when he is one of the more consistent shooters on the team (check the stats). It is the same thing with Bell, Han, Middleton, Max or Herbie (just wait till he has a bad game...hate to see what the members of this message board do then).
On a side note is anyone going to look into the fact that Todd is playing for himself, that MOS is MIA (lack of dedication or just lack of everything?) or just keep on looking at the easy target (one players bad game-lets be honest all the players share their spotlight in that category spearheaded by Todd) and not the big picture (working as a team to make eachother better to have a better season).

The point is stop beating a dead horse...next up is Marist on Friday.

You got to have some big you know whats to attack MOS who is out with a serious injury, thats a bold statement, espically when you are going to leave fake names like for real. The fact of the game last night was 38-24 Iona in the post. Of our 24 i bet 18 of them were by Todd. Maxwell was on another planet last night and there bigs killed us so i wouldnt really place a whole lot of blame on the guards this game.

Guys, grow up! Everyone know and then has a bad game...he played that many minutes for a reason, none of which most of you probably understand...not saying anything against anyone, but there are always something not everyone understands....mvs is in control, KNOWS THE PLAYS (even though many can't be run because most of the team does not, including seniors that are starting) lets the game come to him, is not a ball hog, should probably be getting at lestt 10-12 touches a game and can pass the ball....so if he had turnovers last night???was the players running the play they were suppose to???did they know the play???
you don't blame one person, if that is the case did anyone blame herbe when he threw the ball away at NIagara? does anyone blame todd, has anyone questioned his "D" in four years, or that's right he doesn't have to play==wrong you need 5 guys playing not 2 or 3 although a very good shooter, goes crazy and forgets that there are open players when 3 opposing players are on him? does han see the court-not entirely, does he knows the plays? there is more questions that should concern you then blaming one person for having an off night? mos injury? do, was he sick??? Dewitt? how many touches has he had? not many when you have todd and han together=no ball movement=really watch the game being played, bell was inserted into the line up last in the 4th period to shoot, guess what, han missed him? on purpose? didn't listen? who knows
Try to support the team, they are undersize, trying to do all they can.

All very valid points - Todd, although our go to guy, forces his shot to often when double teamed rather than kicking it out to the open man. If you saw the Canisius game, it was a perfect example of how a team can penetrate and then kick it out when the defense collapses. We seem to play a lot of one on one, rather than trusting each other and playing like a team.

I would be interested in your take on TOT and his game plan. Is he at fault with the game plan, or do you believe it is the execution of the game plan that is lacking, or a combination of both?

if players don't know the plays, that is ALL on the head coach
