Message: [QUOTE="Chief00, post: 5358422, member: 11108"] Down 2 key starters and a 7 point win against MSU for positive context. However, John Gaffney continuation of his embarassing officiating for another year is a tribute to a failed Big East Commissioner. 74 foul shots tonight, MSU (44) vs UConn (30). What part of this is a result of his known dislike for Hurley and how much is just poor officiating can be debated but the horrible end result is unacceptable. UConn needs to practice more discipline so they can play games like they practice and not be in the penalty with 11 minutes left in the first half. Solo Ball, Alex Karaban, Silas Demary, and Jayden Ross were our best players tonight, despite Solo going 1 for 7 from 3. It’s good when Alex drives, he didn’t always finish successfully but he was 8-8 from the foul line. Add that to Solo going 5-5 from the FT line. Reibe is not a complete player yet, but he has a high upside. Eric has a good skillset and is pretty athletic. He needs to get stronger so he can play more physical in the paint without fouling. He had 5 fouls tonight. Silas Demary played well overall but had 5 fouls too against very quick guards. Jayden Ross was 4-5 FG including 2-3 from three. While he only had one rebound, Jayden was a live body and kept the defensive intensity up. Did not see much high hedging tonight. [/QUOTE]
