If Bleechmore and Yetna were both healthy now and Yetna was playing similar to how he played before the knee injury, I’d probably go 11-1 the rest of the way — simply because the way this college basketball season is going, there’d probably be a fluke loss the rest of the way in the regular season.
Neither Bleechmore nor Yetna will likely play Sunday and we don’t have a definite date on Yetna’s return yet. Nor do we know if when Yetna returns, will he be equal to what he was before the injury or will he be some percentage of what he used to be.
In addition to factoring the return of Bleechmore in and Yetna’s start to his season, for some reason I assume no other important player for us will get injured and be forced to sit out games.
I voted 8-4, but I’d love for the team to do better than that.

It was communicated on this board that Bleechmore would be 2 weeks as of last weekend so ideally the Iona or Manhattan game but the way he went down even if hes back by Rider or SPU I am happy.
Yetna I an really hopeful for Iona game but I really think he probably comes back the weekend after like Bleechmore.

With only one game this week, I think I'd have Bleechmore sit out rather than risk re-injury. Johns and Brown will need to hold down the 4 for much of the game and we can also go 4 guards. I think we will be OK.
The way I look at the MAAC, only two things really matters. Winning the MAAC tournament and having your best players available for the tournament. I don't want to loose to Quinnipiac, but you can't rush Louie or Lex back to win this one game.
I won’t vote. Do not want to be a jinx. I am taking one game at a time w/o any expectations. Enjoy each game because it has been a long time since we could enjoy.
i’ve got 9-3, 21-10 overall, but the question is does 15-5 win the regular season MAAC? I’m looking for some help from Rider over St. peter’s and Mt St Mary’s over Quinnipiac. Heck, they could run the table, but i’m trying to be unbiased!! 😁🏀
Although the stat below is for teams in the top 10, it does show that even highly regarded teams have a tough time winning true road games. 5 of our remaining 12 games are away.
So far we’ve gone 3-3 in the first 6 games of the final 12 in the regular season. We’re going to have to do extremely well in the last 6 games in order for the team to achieve the result the vast majority of those voting thought we were going to have.
Looking at standings in MAAC this AM and I don’t see how FF can finish first above QU. The Bobcats have a 3 game advantage in loss column. They have played 13 conference games Vs FF fourteen games. They would need to go 3-4 over their last seven games while FF would need to go 6-0 to win or 5-1 to tie for first. If FF goes 5-1 the one loss cannot be against QU because they would own the tie breaker beating the stags twice.
If we can’t be first, I’d rather be #2-#3 on the other side of the bracket anyway. Save Quinny for our title game.
You may be right. But niagara is likely to be a 2 or 3. If not niagara it will be iona or marist. So far all of these teams but Marist have given us trouble No matter what the seedings, if we are going to win we are likely going to have to beat two of the above 4 teams in atlantic city. We played better versus qu than we did versus iona and niagara. So its a tough call .
