Oh well 0-2, and the Georgetown game becomes a critical game.

I get that we’re not a good shooting team, but watching them missing all those bunnies is maddening!
 
No matter how good our defense is and no matter how hard we play , we are not winning many games if we miss this many easy shots. This is “The Gang That Couldn’t Shoot Straight”
 
I don't what is worse, the way their playing this game or the first half of last game. Can't even buy a bucket.
 
We played very poorly in the second half. Similar to the ASU game.
 
Dunn and Rutherford missed 12 fg.

Agreed Catman, they are not as good as we all thought they were.
 
Regarding the debate the other day about shooters, I agreed with those saying shooters are not born. Well, I now disagree. Shooters are 100% born. We have a good coaching staff and you know they're working hard to teach good form and run tough practices. Yet, we still shoot under 30% every game from 3. We seriously may not shoot better than 30-35% in any game going forward from 3. We have the paint offense but we don't have shooters. At this point I'd be happy with 5-6 Big East wins but no way are we making tourney and doubt NIT at the moment.

Game planning against us is simple now. Pack paint with everyone. Leave 3 pt guys wide open and dare them to shoot. That and don't turn it over too much and it's a W.

Guys, no one else is coming to save us. As fans, we need to rally around Figgy & Heron because we will only go as far they take us. They were both pre-season 2nd team all BE selections by coaches. They can lead us and we need to hope they snap out of their funk. Plenty of time for that to happen.
 
Oh well, had our chances including a ton of free throws we did not take advantage of. On to GT!
 
No reason we can't beat Gtown and PC on the road and Depaul at home (our next three games). At this point, pretty important that we do just that.
