Great game. Started slow, but really turned it on in the 2nd quarter. Was a scary last 3 minutes as they let Providence back in, but pulled it out in the end. Congrats to Joe and the team. After losing so many seniors from last year's team, a great way to show the program is really strong to make it back to the NCAA tourney!

What a coach Joe Amplo is. Did he get a raise after last season?

I will say that we had a really tough schedule this season that clearly built character at BET time.
