SMU cruises past short-handed Hofstra 73-47 to improve to 8-1

AP story picked up by the Washington Post

Hall of Fame coach Larry Brown brought the Mustangs back to the area where he was a standout athlete at Long Beach H.S. before going on to North Carolina and then a career in the ABA. He has coached a record nine NBA teams and his other college stops were iconic programs UCLA and Kansas.

This was SMU’s first game in New York State since 1950. The Mustangs broke a four-game losing streak in New York and are 4-6 in the Empire State all-time.

1) For those who missed the game, it is supposed to be played on TV tonight so set your DVR. I passed out on my couch (took redeye back from SF last night) and completely missed the game. Looking forward to watching tomorrow.

2) I was happy to see Bernardi get 14 minutes and 8 points in front of his friends and family.

3) I was unhappy to see Dickerson only got 5 minutes when we were up big almost the entire game. Since he is the only size on the bench, I am disappointed we didn't use the game to work on getting him better.

4) Uche Ofoegbu didn't get any minutes. Is he in the doghouse, injured, or both?

Pretty revealing that we have not played in NY state in over 60 years.

Guess no rivals in the area. Though SMU did play in a tournament in NJ in '94 or '95 so it isn't like they don't know how to find the region.

After Peruna killed the Fordham Ram, maybe we got banned from the state.
