You're comparing his stats on a Michigan team that was very very bad to Samson and Clingnan in our offense which is light years ahead of most of the country. How would Samson be in Michigan's offense?
His skill set would fit perfect for our offense and then hit them with Samson. If Hurley...
This is what I posted after our last game against Nova,
"Is Hurley secretly recruiting the white kid from Nova? Jk. But if he does enter portal I’m sure Hurley will be all over him. I guess he was speaking to the kid then pointed at Cam like you could be like him. And praised him as one of the...
This breakdown on their D is spot on and going against Kalk and Edey was what I wanted to avoid this tourney but it is what it is. They will try to make us make those runners or foul line jumpers. I don’t see Castle or Newton getting much at the rim. We have to run our offense get them out of...
I can’t listen to Top Dogs anymore. Dauster just over hypes our opponent everytime. He said Hawkins is the 2nd best player on the court behind Shannon. He also said Illinois is going to get theirs on offense and we don’t match up good with them.
Hawkins plays the 3/4 even though he's 6'10. Iowa State big guarded Guerrier while Hawkins stayed almost exclusively around the 3 point line so I think Karaban gets him.
St. John’s has yet to play UConn at full strength and still lost twice. Missing Karaban last game and Clingan the first game.
I expect them to press us then drop into different zones, traps. Etc. They are very deep. Go like 10 deep. Play solid D and don’t let them go off from 3 and we...
Is Hurley secretly recruiting the white kid from Nova? Jk. But if he does enter portal I’m sure Hurley will be all over him.
I guess he was speaking to the kid then pointed at Cam like you could be like him. And praised him as one of the best shooting options in America in her post game presser.
Embarrassing loss. A loss is fine but to be embarrassed sucks. Cam has to try to do more than shoot threes. Drive and dish. Lost his man on D like 5 times.
Clingan doesn’t get in foul trouble this is a closer game. They got a bunch of layups and then got comfortable. By the time he came back...
Nah this ain’t it at all and I love some tough love. You want to bash the facilities and NIL in the press that’s fine. Say that you’re not tough enough and soft as a team that’s fine too. But to point out specific players weaknesses to the media is wild and uncalled for. It’s not motivation...
UConn is the number 1 team in country coming off their 5th Title yet UConn Twitter is losing their minds over a doc about Providence of all teams, Jeff Goodman who always sucked, and John Fanboy Fanta. I guess when things are going good need something to get mad about. I mean some of you are...
Not really sure how anyone can have any complaints about recruiting when this is a top 5 class and we just won a chip. On top of that we could possibly be ranked 1 or 2 on Monday. Also, we won the chip with Karaban at the 4. You have a complaint about Karaban, and Stewart? Stewart actually...
Free throws killed us all game. We miss the front end of 1-1 and then they come down and hit a three. Happened twice.
Hurley running clock instead of set plays led to two Castle threes. Last person on team I want shooting a three.
Pretty sure he means taking away the dribble penetration and making him shoot from the outside. Only team I can see doing this is Creighton. He has no confidence in his jumper right now. Would like to see him drive and then take a pull up, hit a few.
I disagree. There is a difference starting and coming off the bench. Some players are better suited to be that guy off the bench and provide a spark and some don’t. Castle is too talented to wait for 6 minutes each half before he comes in. Idc who the coach is they all know players better...
Castle needs to be in the starting lineup from here on in. I said it in another thread. He's way to talented to continue to come off the bench. I don't think he's a come off the bench spark plug type player. He needs to be in the mix and get some nice reps and mistakes out early. He needs...
I’m sure it’s been said but only Amir can shoot. Why play Richmond so close, or Davis or the Chubby one. They can’t shoot. Sag off them and make them hit jumpers. Richmond is going to drive and then spin and hang for a foul and 3 point play.
Castle has to start now. Let’s get our best 5 out...
Without Clingan in the game we got embarrassed. With him on the floor we still lose. It it would be close tho. Our lack of athleticism with Cam and AK on the floor together was on full display against a super athletic team.
Felt like Holloway was prepared. They had Dawes sitting waiting for...
I don't understand the Houston love. Houston may be very good but how would anyone know this? what makes them top 4? They haven't beaten an AP ranked team yet. The fact that everyone else has played top 10 teams but Houston (who hasn't played a top 25 team yet).
Lets check the rest of the...
Even if not long term still a concern. Losing any Quad 1 games will be tough on our seeding and whos to say he comes back and is himself. Plus he has only played 2 college games against poor teams. Freshman regardless of how good takes time to adjust and he will be playing against top comp...
Castle is so poised out there. Tall and can defend bigger players. Plays 1-3. What Castle does do that we will miss a lot is rebounding.
His replacements
Diarra - Too erratic and makes too many mistakes plus a terrible shooter. Can play hardcore man defense and good vocal leader.
Ball - Can...
To pick nits:
Their guards got to the paint at will, they couldn’t score in the paint but their guards drove at will.
Samson had 1 rebound. I know Castle and Newton rebounded well but still need Samson to rebound.
Three point shooting was around 29 percent until Ross and Diarra hit.
I'm not a fan of someone trying to announce before the kid does. You can be like Trilly and make assumptions or hints but this is wrong IMO. Come to BY and announce this, which is fine but to tweet it, cmon.
