George Mason basketball radio broadcasts will be a little different this year
The school announced last week that they will be releasing a GoMason Mobile app for streaming audio of basketball games this season. The broadcast will not be on any other local station such as 106.7 The Fan, ESPN 980, or even a smaller AM platform. This decision might have been a cost issue as it is pricey for a school like Mason to have play-by-play on the local radio airwaves. I don't think this will be a negative issue because most fans listen through internet streaming as it is and the only difference would be not being able to listen to broadcasts on your car's radio. And since almost everyone has a smartphone these days I don't see this affecting that many people. Bill Rohland will be back as the play-by-play...

Jonathan Arledge a little banged up from Mason Madness dunk contest?
With Sherrod Wright already being lost for the season the last thing Mason fans want to hear is more injury news. Our friends over at CAA Full Court Press got word from Coach Larranaga that Mason "only had 8 players healthy for practice last Sunday". Meanwhile, David Driver, who writes for eplorehoward.com has an article today where he mentions the injury to freshman forward Jonathan Arledge:Arledge was injured on the first day of practice, during March Madness, most likely while dunking in an exhibition for fans, according to Mason coach Jim Larranaga. Arledge was one of the top players for Mason on a four-game tour of Italy in August. “He should be a factor, if he stays healthy,” said LarranagaHaven't received word back from the coaching staff but I've since read it's his knee. I don't...

George Mason to scrimmage Richmond October 30th
Just received an email update from assistant coach Eric Konkol that Mason will travel to Richmond October 30 for a scrimmage. For the past couple of seasons Mason has had a "closed scrimmage" against Georgetown, meaning no one but the coaches and players could be there to watch. Perhaps the team sought out a new opponent for this preseason tune-up considering they could end up playing Georgetown in the Charleston Classic this November, but I could be reading too much into it. Either way I'm sure neither team wanted the other coaching staff to get a preseason look at their teams for this upcoming season just in case. Richmond had a great season last year making the NCAA tournament (#7 seed) and winning 26 games. They have one...

Is Corey Edwards the Old-School Point Guard Larranaga Needs?
The commitment from Corey Edwards and Vaughn Gray last weekend has some Mason fans questioning the team's future depth at forward. I think that at this point that is a minor issue because with mid-major squads like George Mason your life blood is your guards, especially point guards. Point guards to mid-majors are like franchise quarterbacks to NFL teams, if you get a chance to get a guy that fits your system perfectly you cannot pass him up. The NY Post had an article the other day on Edwards describing him as a "throwback" and a "pure point guard". His high school coach says "he is big on loyalty and loves to defend", something that must be music to Coach Larranaga's ears. Although I have been suggesting that freshman Bryon...

My Interview with Jim Larranaga from CAA Media Day
CAA Media Day was a fun experience and I wish I could have stayed longer. The predictions and All-CAA teams have been announced and Patriots are picked to finish second behind ODU which is where I am sure most fans would have had them. Senior Cam Long was named to the preseason All-CAA 1st team as well, showing that again the expectations are high for him from the media. Also junior Ryan Pearson was an honorable mention.I was able to get a short interview with Jim Larranaga during the media frenzy. It was cut short because he was being summoned in the background as I was talking to him but I still got about 4 min of audio. I knew going in I couldn't ask the questions I really wanted to so I kept it relatively simple. It's hard to get anything "good" out of Larranaga but I...
