(Charleston Classic) NORTH TEXAS, Thur., Nov. 16, 1:30p, ESPNU

[ADORAZ]

I don’t understand our lineups the last two end of 1st halves. None of our guys are in foul trouble, why aren’t we keeping the core guys in? We need a 1 guard, it’s glaring.

It's a bit puzzling but could be to save energy for the next couple games. 4 games in a week, need to have fresh legs.

Wish we could've played these guys before Michigan. They're ferocious on D, really well coached, offensively challenged thank God( due in no small part to our rotations improving by about 500%).

The offense is concerning. Hardly any fast break points, no easy buckets in the half court. Not a pick and roll nor a backdoor cut to be seen. And nobody can beat their man off the dribble. I really hope Luis is as good as advertised, we're going to need him.

More Wilcher please

SJUDAVE was that u in the light red sju sweatshirt they panned the crowd earlier and looked like you cheering?

 

[Marillac2]

I liked that Dingle-Taylor-Alleyne-Ledlum-Soriano lineup we saw for about a minute. Would love to see more of it to let everyone else actually play instead of watching Jenkins.

Get Jenkins off the damn ball. He actually looks better attacking off the pass from the wing .

 

[paultzman]

Wilcher & Alleyne both need to play more in the second half.

Seems Alleyne reserved for zone busting situations. He seems end of rotation guy at this point

 

[Moose]

I miss Ponds

If Pitino rode Ponds like Soriano he would have transferred out already

 

[Larry Wright]

More Wilcher please

Getting tired of Ja Jenkins too?

 

[MugCostanza]

Wilcher & Alleyne both need to play more in the second half.

Agreed, not sure why Alleyne had so few minutes especially with the offense as bad as it was

 

[Queens_Ball]

Love the defensive effort. Too much dribbling and too many long (not quite cross court but almost) passes. Just move the ball.

He seemed annoyed last game and was shooting every time touched the ball

 

[Delaware]

Thought this was a game where Dunlap might get some minutes. But this offense is not conducive to kicking the ball our for open shots.

 

[paultzman]

Nobody has posted about missing Posh yet so let me christen the game thread.

Posh would be posting up these guys w Joel at foul line

 

[sjc88]

Damn neighbor is out there putting Christmas lights out. So of course my wife is all over it and thinks I should start. Jeez, the St. John’s game is 1000x more important than putting up lights BEFORE Thanksgiving. God help me.

 

[paultzman]

Jenkins auditioning for off guard roll overseas & wonder who will step up and run the point, orchestrate?

Bill, she should know better!

I’d be a bit annoyed too coming off a National championship and consecutive NCAA tourney appearances to start my last season riding pine with the guys playing in front of him.

 

[paultzman]

Agree, good game to give Wilcher minutes

 

[Marillac2]

Unless you are a legit 20 plus point scorer it is never good to have point guard jacking up that many shots

How can anyone figure out their role if Jenkins completely dictates what happens every possession?

I’ve always been wary of hired guns. I call it Durand Johnson syndrome. Just hope we don’t have a few guys suffering from it.
