Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 3414855, member: 1414"] Yeah, sort of. But let's not oversell that concept. We had three bad games. St. Joes, @Cinci and @USF. Aside from that the team has played well enough to win. Against what I'd call quality opponents we have this.

All of those game were winable. UConn had a late lead in every one of those games. So expecting us to be good with this roster wasn't unreasonable. Every team has holes. Our main issue has been leadership down the stretch. Clutch play. Sid's late three against WSU was the one clutch play I've seen. Put Jalen Adams on this roster in place of Al and we might be ranked. Jalen was clutch. Hurley also had his stinkers and I still think the IU loss is on him. [/QUOTE]
