I can't imagine they'll be playing any games until all this snow melts.

Limiting TO's will be the key. That's why I'd like to see Silas and Smith on the court together for stretches. Smith has had his struggles, but he can handle the rock. At the very least, it should allow us to get the ball up court quicker.

We'll see. As bad as we played last night, if either Solo or Alex hit their scoring average, we probably win the game. We do have talented players, but because of the problems you identified we just have a thin margin for error.

I guess a lineup change might help. We did look better earlier in the year with Stew starting, but he's in a major funk right now. Ross would help with our D, but we sacrifice some scoring. Right now, we have 3 guys (AK, Solo and Mullins) standing at the 3 point line waiting for the ball, this...

Has anyone in the press asked Hurley about this? They might not get the response they want. But it's a fair question.

I wasn't sure fouling up 3 with 12 seconds left was the right call. If the kid made them both we would be up 1 and have to inbound the ball and who knows what would have happened. Glad it worked out.

Yes, probably closer than it should have been, but they did hit some pretty well defended 3's. In addition, that one kid who hit 4 of them was averaging about 3 points a game, He finished with 15 last night. Always seems to happen to us.

Don't forget, we did recruit Isaiah Abraham. Many said he was the best athlete on the team last year. Unfortunately, it didn't work out for him here.

Will this help us in conference realignment?

Silas was under a lot of pressure. I might have tried him and Smith in the back court together at times last night. Smith has his limitations, but at least he fast with the ball and could have help break the press.

Agree. Don't understand why Mullins didn't get more shots in the 2nd half last night. Maybe i wasn't watching it closely enough, did St John's do something to take him out of the game?

Maybe rest Solo for the Xavier game? Assuming Mullins can play.

Agree. If Tarris would improve his recognition of when to go up strong and when to kick it out, it would really open things up. He could start by at least passing out of double teams.

Foul shooting has been brutal. It's getting to the point where the only guys I trust in late game situations are Silas and Mullins.

Nothing comes easy with our offense, except maybe dumping the ball down to Reed. I don't know if it's guys not making the right cuts or not getting the ball in the right spots. We're also a streaky shooting team and Ball's slump doesn't help. I hate to say it but our poor FT shooting in pressure...
