Partly why I've been idle. I have no time for it, and won't hold back on what I think about some posters, their logic and fallacious retorts.

Absolutely nothing defensively, imagine we lose to the worst team in D1 on our home floor. OMG!![/quote]
Lol at least you’re consistent. No other games on tonight, I guess.
 
Did find one positive tonight and that is Clark. Not only is he playing well, he has only 1 foul!

I think he needs to rethink his strategy of taking some games off to let others get going. Needs a better balance. We are not good enough to play w/o him on offense.[/quote]

Offense is not our issue, Clark , Heron and Figgy have all shot well so far. Our lack of effort on defense is infuriating!!![/quote]

It is actually pretty incredible. But you do realize that Mullin is not saying "hey take your time getting out on shooters."

The guys have probably been doing it their whole lives.[/quote]

Every kid's been doing it their whole lives so it's still on the staff beacause either the system doesn't work or the efforts not there and both of those are fixable by the coach(es). I'll watch when I get home and skip the times their on D so I don't get too negative.
 
We can really shoot overall as a team. If we learn how to defend as a team and rebound, we can be ridiculously good. Until then...
 
Ok we won, and by more than 10. Glad our season wasn't ruined, but not much else positive to take from this game.
 
[quote="guinness77" post=306521]Lol. I don’t think Trimble could hit water if he fell out of a boat. Sheesh.[/quote]

Yeah but he tries on D

If we play like tonight against ANY BE team we will lose.
 
Not that pretty, nothing great to take out of it but we were never losing that game. Take the win, stop the bitching, we’re 8-0.

We play to our level of competition, for better or for worse. I think that much is obvious at this point, I’m not gonna over analyze it.

Ok so here is what you do. Never play Dixon and bench Ponds, Simon, Heron and Clark when they don't closeout. Going to be tough to win that way.

Listen personally I would threaten to punch the next guy who doesn't recognize a shooter in the nut sack. But I am not sure you can do that and keep your job.

Someone like Bobby Knight would probably kill Dixon and Ponds but there are not many guys like Knight around. And someone like Coach K would not recruit anyone on this team.
 
Take the W...but not what I expected paying $10 to watch for in flight Wi-Fi...

I almost stayed overnight in NY to go to game live after work meeting on LI... Glad I didnt.

I dont like Ponds intentionally not playing offense to distribute only. Still got points but feels forced.
