Great start for the Bonnies, another vicotory in the books. A 9-4 start is a breath of fresh air after the pollution of the Solomon era. Now the A-10 begins and the next level of competition, but this Bonnie fan is ecstatic with the way our Brown and White have competed so far! Foul shooting was great today and good defense. ;D The Bonnies will surprise quite a few of the A-10 teams this winter, and should make the A-10 tournament. 68-58 victory for the Bonnies.

Yes, sir. At the end of the day we are 9-4. We've played 13 games and have already eclipsed last year's win total--the most wins since VBK was here. Now the real fun begins as we crank it up another notch or two heading into A-10 play. Beat Fordham! Go Bona's!

9-4 is a great start for a team that has been so bad in the last few years. Realistically we could have been 11-2, but I'll take it.

Isn't "pollution" more of a word that should designate the van Breda Kolff era? No doubt we're better off with Schmidt at coach but Solomon did not leave the program with a "black" cloud over it, at least in terms of integrity. That being said, the program is definitely STILL heading in the right direction in leaps and bounds since Schmidt took over. Great start to the season! Now let's make the A-10 play-offs!

I must add that Bonas went 5-0 in away games. 0-2 neutral and 4-2 at home. 5-0 on the road probably hasn't happened in quite some time. I'll take it.

Schmidt's 5 away wins this season is equal to the total away game wins in Solomon's 4 years with the Bonnies. Solomon had 2 out of conference and 3 conference away wins. kenpom.com/sked.php?team=St.%20Bonaventure&y=2004&t=p

A lot of us thought we could be 9-4 at this point in the season. The difference between this year and previous seasons is that in the past we could've been 4-9. Coach is doing a great job in recruiting and coaching. We need to give him and the Bonnies all the support we can and KEEP him around for a while.
GO BONNIES!!!
