I don't know how much longer this team can keep it up with hardly any depth. Starters are playing a bunch of minutes and could will wear them down at some point.

Depth is definitely going to eventually catch up with these guys but on a positive note they are 18-21 year olds and they have a break in early Dec of only playing two games over 20 days. Conference play is gonna be rough though.

After the game, LB seemed down on Bernardi. Rich mentioned his 3 and LB said something to the effect of "He's got that figured out but he needs to figure out everything else."

Myles Melville from Plano is a freshman for Rider so that explains the Rider fan club that cheered once down the stretch. Myles' dad is a SVP at Frito-Lay and played hoops at Princeton. A little trivia...

Right now we're looking at 15 players for 13 spots in 2013-2014, if we sign Frazier in the Spring that's 16 for 13 spots. Guessing the 3 casualties would be Ofoegbu, Bernardi and Dickerson.

He had position for a charge and backed up at the last second - causing the penalty on him as a block instead of picking up the charge and getting the turnover. Those little things cost you games - they are the exact same thing as scoring in value to the team. Why get in position for a charge and then chicken out at the end?
Hopefully he'll learn - i think he plays solid D and we need his 3"s.
