Message: [QUOTE="Classof87, post: 5167731, member: 12566"] I'll never roll my eyes at a Big East road win, so I didn't really mind them going into "clock mode" up by 24. Gtown coming back like they did to close it to an 8 pt game is purely a result of them having Cooley as their coach, he has that team on the right track and I have no doubt they are poised to become a top team in the BE. All that being said... we are a [B]terrible [/B]perimeter defending team. Gtown shot 46% on 7-15 shooting from three, on the season they shoot it at 32.5%. If they had shot better from the line (15 of 23) especially in the 2nd half when we put the game away, this might have played out much differently. We also keep allowing guards to dribble drive to the hole for layups. I'll gladly take the win, but this team still has a LOT of work to do defensively to make a FF run. And yes, we need McNeeley back asap. [/QUOTE]
