Sizing Up the Rocky River

I was fortunate enough to attend Stony Brook's last game against GW. In a word, this game was a blowout. From the moment the game started out 13-0, the game was never close or exciting. To make matters worse, I had to spend another 2 hours watching "Big George" do his retarded arm-flapping thing.

Stony Brook certainly didn't do as well as BU did against GW. But they've got some offensive weapons that could help them against us. I would love to have a guy like Bobby Santiago on our team -- a point guard who can shoot, pass and slash to the basket. They have a few other guys, Mitch Beauford, Mike Popoko, and a few promising young guys, who can create on the offensive end; we don't really have anyone like that.

That said, I don't think it will be enough to beat us, especially with our rock-solid defense. Hopefully, we'll be able to put this one away and roll into that Vermont game on Sunday with some confidence.
