So RMU split the Brooklyn trip. Pretty much what I expected. RMU just seems to struggle to keep the score low against LIU, and the Blackbirds are coming off an NCAA Tournament appearance.
Defense was outstanding against SFBK. Mendy and Petteway had big games. Fouls and turnovers a huge issue against LIU, though it was nice to see Josh Williams get a bit of his groove back.
RMU has a week off, since the NEC is playing on MLK Day. So the next game isn't until Saturday.
I hope this week leads to Koby Thomas returning. It looks like he warmed up and was in uniform against the Brooklyn teams, but he didn't play. I think RMU needs him, at least defensively. His length and athleticism can be a game changer.
Hopefully whatever's been going on with this illness/benching is over now. Koby needs to go hard in practice and Toole needs to put him back in the rotation. Play Josh and Jon 30 minutes, Matty 27-28, Treacy 15, Wilbon 12-15. Bain, Mendy, Petteway at 20 each. Coalmon 10. And slot Koby in at 15-20.
