Really? You don't even know what caused the benching. They started the game on a 8-0 run so obviously the benching was irrelevant. I'll tell you what's embarrasing. The guards shot 5-29, Posely was 2- 12 with numerous air balls and we shot 2-18 from 3. Our guards were non competitive tonight. That was embarrassing.

Hey Bub, wasn't that the point, coach took us out of the game before it started... He's not coach K, Calapari, pititano. He's not the talent! Posley didn't come to play, never saw the RC s morbid

Schmidt just said he was late for the team meeting. You know what? I would have benched him the whole 1st half at least. What's Posely thinking? He's the leader of the team. He won the Duke game. But he's killed us the last 2. 2 games we should have won. Come on. Snap out of it.

"Posley was late for a meeting"....per Coach. "If you can't be at a meeting on time, you don't deserve to start"

If this immpacted the kid that much, he is not the mature player that I believed he was. He did not seem focused....but none of guards were.....5-29 shooting is awful

[Copenhagen]

Really, late? Good move by the BOSS!

Copenhagen I always respect your opinion but come on. Posely is on full schlorship to play basketball. Show up on time. My guess is that it wasn't the first time. You gotta have rules. I'll say it again. They started the game up 8-0 and the crowd was going crazy with posely on the bench. Please don't use the benching as an excuse. Totally irrelevant.

this team is underachieving as the team 2 years ago did ...... why? is Coach like the nay-sayers state is not better than a .500 coach as his record suggest? We looked unprepared, disinterested ...... pretty frustrated by what I see ... 1st Siena, then UMES ... and then Delaware... yet it continues. Who isn't late? todays world is over-scheduled, trying to do a ton of stuff .... bench your meal ticket? he looked pretty out of it .... maturity? or a power struggle? didn't look or play out so good did it?

Cope - come on - I'm one of the "naysayers" who thinks Schmidt is a very average coach & a worse recruiter BUT if you're late for a team meeting, unless you have a legit excuse, then you get to sit for awhile - that's a life lesson. Overscheduled?? It's not like he's got to catch the subway to get across campus!!
And if the kid is really "your meal ticket" & a team leader he wouldn't be late and when he entered the game he should have been "good" pissed off and made the extra effort - which he didn't.

If this is a power struggle then I am firmly on Coach Schmidts side. You can't have the inmates running the asylum. Archie Miller tossed his 2 big men off the team. How's that working out for Dayton? Jamie Dixon tossed his best forward off the team in preseason. Pitt took their lumps early but have played better of late. In fact, Steve Lavin benched Raysheed Jordan today for tweeting a homophobic slur. How did Jordan respond.? He came off the bench and shot 5-6, had 4 boards, 4 assists, and 14 points and just may have saved St. Johns season today by beating Providence. How did Posely respond? . Since Posely's miracle three vs Duquense, he's shot 5-24 and scored a total of 10 points. Who knows? Maybe Posely's funk will lead to Jalen Adams getting an opportunity. Yep, let's blame the coach.

Coach makes his players accountable for their actions, as it should be. Enough said.
Bonnies had only 5 turnovers! 2-18 from the three point line spelled our defeat.....nothing more, nothing less.
