Message: [QUOTE="Plebe, post: 3414611, member: 6927"] I think most of it is that their guards, except for Slocum, are in a shooting slump. Three-point shooting has been one of the hallmarks of Rueck's success ever since he's been at Oregon State. What was puzzling was how he benched Slocum for significant stretches of the game at Oregon. Did he feel that her individual success was coming at the expense of the team? Or did he want to force the other players to problem-solve their way out their shooting slump, taking more of a long-term perspective. Hard to say. Taylor Jones has been outstanding as a post, probably the nation's #2 freshman after Boston. If OSU just starts getting some more 3-point makes from Goodman, Tudor and Pivec, that will make all the difference not just for them but also opening up more opportunities for Jones, Brown and other interior players.
