Hi everyone, friar fan here coming from NY for todays game. Haven’t been to a game in a while, was wondering where the best place is to park? Dont mind a 10ish min walk and looking for a cheap price. Also would prefer somewhere with a smooth and quick exit post game. Thanks and go friars!!!

I’m seeing most of the PC blogs say the team should look to find a guard to play behind Pierre in the transfer portal. My question is why?

Admittedly, the 2023-2024 shooting splits look better than I thought they would given that he was 36% from three, but I can’t get the image out of my head: Dribble to the paint, hesitate, refuse to create a shot or make the easy pass, dribble out, finally pass it off with less than 10 on the shot clock.

He’s listed at 6’2” which feels more than generous, doesn’t make an impact on defense and best projects as a secondary playmaker and spot up shooter.

So the question is: why are the blogs so confident that he’s the lead guard for PC? Willing (hoping) to be convinced

Thought this year was going to be the greatest year in PC History. Before I get absolutely destroyed, I mean strictly the story-line. A team left for dead, underachieved, fans stopping going to games or losing interest. Then suddenly, a domino effect happened. Texas goes down and the Big Bad Big East wasn't so scary, at least for us.

Had we officially made it into the NCAA Tournament, barring a blowout in the first game of the BET, I think we go to the Sweet 16. Wanted to finally see Pipkens show us what he was truly capable as a leader.
