It was hard to come into Fordham and win a game. Hopefully we get that feeling back soon.” >>>>>Frank - Packed, when? in 1985? “I can always remember this being a great home-court advantage and it wasn’t this year,” McLaughlin said about the Rose Hill Gym. “I remember that gym was always packed.

There was no critical examination of the basketball program, heck no criticism at all. Your blog does no good for making Fordham better when all you do is puff up the most underperforming athletic administration in the entire country. Stop being a shill for the Administration, asj some hard questions, and demand some answers.

Ha, he's stealing one of Whittenburg's favorite lines. Our non-conference schedule that year featured games against Columbia, Central Missouri State (D-II), College of Charleston (home loss), NJIT, Robert Morris (home loss), Binghamton, UNC-Greensboro (home loss), Manhattan and Hofstra... We played three BCS schools, only two of whom made the dance, and we lost those games by an average of 22.7 points. The team stunk because Whit never got them a pg and he couldn't coach the talent he had. End of story. “We had a tougher schedule their senior year…”

"Answers questions with the same confidence and pride that have marked his tenure at Fordham." Really?!? Too bad he couldn't grant this interview in our trophy room showing you any of the national titles he has propelled us towards with his confidence and pride. I understand the need to make your sources look good but how about some balance? You make it very clear that Fordham does not have a journalism major.
