George Mason Game Thoughts
George Mason is 17-8 overall and 6-6 in conference, A10. I don't see any significant wins.
Here is what I learned with a little research:
This game between Dayton and George Mason will be played at Eagle Bank arena in Fairfax Virginia on the campus of George Mason. Fairfax Virginia is southwest of Washington, D.C.. Eagle Bank arena was built in 1985 and renovated in 2022. The seating capacity is 10,000.
George Mason's last game was at home against George Washington on 02/13, Tuesday. George Mason will have 8 days of rest to focus on Dayton.
Jared Billups is cousin to NBA star and current Portland Trailblazer's head coach, Chauncey Billups (must know Toumani Camara).
Baraka Okojie has a brother, Ose, playing basketball at Howard University.
Tony Skinn is the George Mason head coach. He was born in Lagos Nigeria and played at George Mason. Tony Skinn played professionally for 6 years then was an assistant coach at Nike Team Taken (3 years), Louisiana Tech (3 years), Seton Hall (3 years), Ohio State (2 years), Maryland (1 year) and then head coach at George Mason. Tony Skinn is in his 1st year as head coach at George Mason.
Based upon research of the last couple games, George Mason is playing 5 players approximately 10 minutes or more per game. There are 5 other players who have gotten some minutes in some games. But, primarily, the 5 players are: Keyshawn Hall 6'7" SO, Amari Kelly 6'9 GR, Jared Billups 6'4" JR, Ronald Polite 6'2" SR and Baraka Okojie 6'3" FR. Other players getting some minutes are: Newton 6'9" (only 200 lbs.), Ball, Wood, Henry 6'8" and Maddox. Also on the roster but not getting minutes is Haynes 6'8" 260.
