Game day thread

If they could hit a shot our tune would be much different.

They are taking horrendous shots. a ton of off the dribble jumpers with their feet on the line.

 

[CTisballers]

I'm done with KO and the Huskies. Every year it's the same old BS we're used to seeing. Plz get rid of KO

To Stony Brook?? Really Huskies

 

[UconnFanNVa]

This is a PK80 campus game. Maybe Stony Brook will agree to take our place in Oregon to avoid further program embarrassment.

We laughed but gtown was smart enough to get out!

They’ll win but this is concerning. This team is guard heavy and needs the big 3 of Adams Vital and Gilbert to play well each game to have a chance at a non disasterous season

Also missing a bunch of wide open shots, not just the guards either.

 

[Paesano]

But calhoun lost to saint bonaventure once so...no reason to panic.

 

[MuchoDogYears]

2 foul rule is dumb

Finally! Someone else who sees how idiotic it is! All it does is kill your own team. Sit ‘em if they get a third foul before halftime, not 2.

 

[Javjudah]

I miss the Calhoun hook and scream. Some of the guards could use that tonight.

That wouldn't work with this generation of kids. Look at the recruits we brought in his last couple years.

Not so sure they will win.

This could be yet another "season over before it begins" situation, just like Wagner and Northeastern, just like Yale. How long is this allowed to go on?

 

[FartMan69]

Not so sure they will win.

I’m trying some positivity to help ease the pain but yeah you’re right

[UConnDan97]

This is all about shot selection. And the selection has sucked so far. If they clean that up, we'll win by double digits. If not...ughh...

 

[Husk1881]

There is no set offense. KO is running this team like they are in the NBA. Its horrible to watch. I have yet to see him develop a single player into NBA material. Idk about anyone else but we are in too crappy of a conference to be slipping from relevancy like this. Something has to change. Recruits are taking notice of this.

 

[EastConn'er]

I don't know what's worse: our offense or defense? Maybe our defense wouldn't look so bad if we didn't look so clueless on offense. We need to run plays for scores! Unfortunately, nobody can make a shot, we'd rather drive into traffic & turn the ball over or miss every wide open shot we manage to get. This team needs to press on defense. Make something out of nothing. Grrrr

 

[Paesano]

Why do they need to press?...This!!!

 

[HawkHusky]

Why do they need to press?...This!!!

Every time!

 

[Huskymagic]

Jalen is way too lackadaisical and his body does not look good for a lead guard. Rique moves very well but his perimeter shot is not good, and forces way too much. Vital not doing anything.

Kevin Ollie is to blame. Instead of Jalen being a lead guard, Alterique is handing the ball 75% of the time, and Adams doesn't know how to play off the ball. No one is ready to catch and shoot with confidence for an open 3 making everyone tentative drivers and shooters.

 

[BlueDogs]

Looks like another KO special ...no execution, offensive ineptitude and sporadic D.

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

i dont know who is more lethargic, the crowd or the players?

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

 

[Ukonnfan]

Espn seems to have major issues

 

[Paesano]

Jalen is way too lackadaisical and his body does not look good for a lead guard.

But people will tell you the results of the Husky run were meaningless. Rip Hamilton and Ray Allen say hi.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Did Vital forget how to play basketball?

 

[JMick]

onourah blows. why is he on the court so much?
