I have to admit to not following UMASS basketball. I started to watch the game v. Syracuse, I turned it off at the half when they were down by 19. However, they have my interest for tonight's game.
I am impressed by the ability of this team to come from behind and win big games. They never seemed to get flustered even when there is a large deficit.
I wish I knew more about this team before the NIT.
Like Donovan a year ago, when he flirted with a coaching vacancy in the NBA, Ford now has to face questions about his future. His name has already popped up for the opening at LSU, perhaps an avenue for returning to his roots in the Southeastern Conference.
It was reported that Coach Ford was on EEI this morning and stated that he was returning to UMass! He has established the beginnings of a very good program.
Not sure what your major is. I chose UMass over NE because of its academic program and professors in my major. Also UMass beats NE in football almost every year and competes for the Division I National Championship on the playing field (Division I - FCS).
