He knows.
Don't think it's accidental that UNCW hasn't posted anything about the preseason CAA stuff. Big Pat was asked about being POY and, while appreciative, didn't put much stock in it.

Did not realize I could get the full season for like $50 if I simply used my old school email last year. 😐 Thank god I hadn’t purchased yet this year. Of course, @flosports does basically nothing to make this clear upfront.
There’s no CAA discount this season as best we can tell, but the annual subscription is a much better deal. Even better if you have an .edu email. (For anyone searching on this: FloSports, FloCollege, Flo) theseahawkperch.com/2026/10/…

Feeling good about the future, but seeing Jaeden Roberts go off for 17 points (4-7 from 3P) against UNC is fairly painful.

Takeaways from non-D1 matchup vs. SJLI: - Will Boyd get the starting nod over Tavarez? Seems possible - Don’t expect an even three-way split at the 5, but Dunn may command more time than expected - Jefferson at 26 minutes tells me he will get a shot at a prominent bench role

- Very much trusting the vision to make Moore the pace setter. I think there’s a lot of weapons on this team and they need a great passer to execute - Boyd can shoot, obviously

I have "a job" so that I don't "die of hunger" but I'll be diving into today's box score a bit more later. In the meantime...

Hofstra with a dominant performance against DIII St. Joseph’s 97 - 51 Trey Boyd absolutely shining with 18 points on 4 threes DeCady with 12 points and 5 offensive boards Speedy goes deep with the bench and just about everyone who played showed something to be excited about

Joshua DeCady is this team's glue guy. It would be a great year to see him start lighting up stat sheets like he's doing today.

I really hope this is a sign of good things to come from Tanner Thomas. A quarter way through this game: 9 MIN 6 PTS 1 AST 4 REB 3 STL

Trey Boyd III's name literally refers to the number "three" twice. Should we even be surprised??

This is how Hofstra allocated minutes in its first matchup last year vs. a non-D1 opp (vs. Season MPG): - Top 3 players = identical - 5 of the 6 most-used players matched We may learn something about how Speedy will rotate players today, hopefully about the ~mysterious~ bench.

I can’t believe it’s our last season of @flosports. Good riddance! Right, @CAASports @joeyd812?

Already home!!
A hometown hero. A lasting legacy. A street that will forever carry his name. Today, Hempstead honored one of its own. Craig "Speedy" Claxton Way. #PrideOfLI

ICYMI: @kenpomeroy's CAA rankings going into the year: 1. UNCW (105) 2. Charleston (125) 3. Hofstra (141) 4. Towson (178) 5. Monmouth (196) Everyone else is in the 200s or worse.

KenPom's projected record for Hofstra is 11-7, generally enough for the double-bye. That's based on win probability. If all of the games went *exactly* as projected (slightly different), Hofstra would go 15-3 — easily enough for a Top 2 finish.
