Just hope team isn’t peaking too early

So you have one bit of mojo 25 years ago and it has to still apply forever? Nonsense.

You flow like a stick on the arms of a mighty river. Barely anyone eats wings and drinks RRs anymore and EVERYONE here did that in 99.

If you stand still on the train tracks, you get run over or left behind. Grow up.
You quit. Have some dignity in your retirement instead of coming back to the office and asking if anyone wants to go with you to the early bird special at Denny's. No one does.
 
Loved today’s game, firing on all cylinders. However lot of bb to be played. I wouldn’t mind a mid February stumble or two and then heat it up for the end of season, BET and the dance.

I’m thinking how the Kemba team and last year’s team hit the dance in peak performance. Fingers crossed.
How can they be peaking with karaban in steet clothes. Undefeated at full strength. Reminds me of rips natty. Team lost 2 games at not full strength. Feel free to check my math but that is my recollection

This bit is tired.

You want to go at a repeat with Prankster again? Or maybe your pal ADub will pull his face out of the Friars taint to act like a UConn fan again. We can only hope.

Have no fear. I already have a few mojo streams in flight and ready to pounce come March.
 
I'm just going by what I've seen the past handful of days, in one true home game and one alleged road game. in that sampling, our opponent commits three fouls for every one that is called while our 7'2" center has two called for every one he commits.

Once we're in the NCAA's it will be similar to last year.
 
Have we even played 10 games with our full roster? We need to get Clingan some work in the post so he can attack these bigs back that are putting him in foul trouble every game. If they're gonna try and get a quick two fouls on him, we've got to be willing to attack back.
He’s putting himself in foul trouble. He’s like a newborn colt out there. He needs to give up a little space, not be overly physical, and not try to block everything they throw up.

That’s a silly thing to worry about. We’re good and well coached. We won’t forget how to play and coach late in the season.

Please you're I quit, I want back in, I quit, I want back in act is tired. It's really painful to watch you jump on and off the bandwagon. Last year, your "the retired judge speaks" thread was a big bag of nothing, ignored by everyone. Then after we had established Bill Murray as our Mojo icon for the year you hopped on board and tried to take credit for it. It's really pitiful. You should stop embarrassing yourself.
 
Firing on all cylinders? AK didn't play, DC and Samson were basically no-shows.
They held Soriano to 4RB 2A and 6PTS, maybe just me but far from no-shows in a pressure packed game. Team sport and the team picked up one another for a quality win. I get the first point but the not the no-shows.

There are some teams, that there is no such thing as peaking...I think this is one of them. They have been consistently good, and will just continue to be consistently good. I think under pressure, they will rise.

One of his assist was very nice, dumping down low from a triple team to an open guy under the basket.
 
Our 5s sucked today and we were missing maybe our 2nd best player. We ain't peaking, or close to it

Yep, I think we are still at 1-3 full games with a fully healthy starting five with no limit restrictions (X).

Full roster the team has played 9-10 depending on if you count SHU. NAU, Stonehill, UNC, UAPB, Gonzaga, Creighton, Nova, X, PC and maybe SHU.

Castle was on minutes for UNC, UAPB, Gonzaga. Clingan on minutes for NAU, Stonehill, Creighton. Clingan got hurt against SHU and Karaban against PC. I forget if Clingan was on minutes for Nova.

This reminds me of a title we would give someone (back in my undergrad days; more than four decades ago) if he pull an move: dewsh of the week!

Note - it requires a good amount of creativity to beat the profanity filter.
 
I, too, hope we stumble in February.

To all those who have given my original post a hard time - I am Catholic and from NE.

I hope the team enters tournament time on a high note and goes back to back. Salt over shoulder.

It’s not like we’re like Gonzaga of old and cruise through conference play without breaking a sweat. Every game we are tested. Every game is a battle.
 
The premise of this thread is silly - they haven’t peaked yet.

We might lose another couple games before the dance but this team is going to be a bear to beat in the tourney. Clingan has another level to get to and Castle is going to get better and better.

I want the repeat. We might as well say it. This is the best team in the country. It is. They can beat you playing their game and they can beat you playing your game. Somebody might knock them off when it matters but I’m gonna need to see it because right now on a neutral court I’m taking them over anybody.
