One of the ugliest Division I basketball games I have ever seen. Here are a few Lupica-Style comments......
My son's 5th grade travel team is a more savvy bunch. They're also better coached (if I do say so myself).
Give David Jones credit. He decided he would be tonight's hero. The only problem is that he wasn't the hero even after taking 150 shots trying to be.
Now that it's mid-February, I am glad we have figured out how to defend the perimeter. Otherwise we would still be watching our opponents shoot dozens of wide-open threes......that might get frustrating.
CMA's handling of Omar Stanely is brilliant. Since the season is lost anyway, why play one of our best +/- guys? Keeping him on the bench will dissuade other teams from luring him into the portal. This is an awesome strategy.
Lastly, I think DePaul needs Rick Pitino as bad as we do.
