Is it possible this game is not on TV? Can't find a TV listing anywhere.

It is not on tv. Taking metro north up from grand central. Are there bars within walking distance?

looks like you can watch it through the Fordham site but you may have to pay $7 for it

I was gonna say no way that it would be free, I might just have to spend the 7 bucks.

Where are you seeing the "pay for $7???   


Oddly, somehow from the Fordham website, http://fordhamsports.com/schedule.aspx?path=mbball

 I just got to this link to A-10 conference  network site and I was able to see the Saint Louis vs. USML women's basketball game.  Hoping this works for the Wed night game.

I saw Hofstra/St Bonaventure a couple of days ago on the A-10 site.  I'll be at the Fordham game, anyway.  Too good to pass up.

Seems like a lot of us are going to this game. Hope we have a lot to cheer about and if so hope we can hear it.

There's literally a bar in the basement of the gym.

Bar in the basement is "Dagger John's"...just follow the crowd. Jolly Tinker on Webster Ave and Bedford Park BLVD. is a Bronx favorite.

A University has a bar on campus in 2015?  How is that even possible?

I went to the last game there.  It was a doozy.

I made out all right.  I went out for dinner on that famous "little Italy" like street.

Zach' tweets

Ron Mvouika says tomorrow is a must win. "We can't lose to any teams from New York."

Ron Mvouika on tomorrow: "it's in their gym, but we'll still be at home." #

Both Ron Mvouika and Federico Mussini raved about Kassoum Yakwe. "You're going to see a lot of alley oops." #sjubb

Chris Mullin expects Felix Balamou to play, doesn't look like Darien Williams or Malik Ellison will. #sjubb

Having Yakwe and Balamou is big for us. Gives us some more athleticism and more punch on defense and offense. Wonder what the story is with Ellison? He's been out for a while with a injury that they originally said wasn't serious.

Not a doctor, but worry about a stress fracture although;

It does. We need guys who will play tough defense. If we leave Fordham wide open for three, they could beat us. Johnson and Mvouika rebound well for guards, but they don't really get after it on defense. Johnson doesn't want anyone to touch him, and Mvouika doesn't have the foot speed to keep up with a strong athlete.

Balamou, for all of his offensive shortcomings, has always hustled on defense. We need him to set the tone.

One problem with our perimeter defense is too often we collapse on a driver, who then kicks to open shooter. No need to constantly employ help D on penetration if Sima is in the game IMO.
