Message: [QUOTE="jdb50, post: 4130635, member: 1530"] The way to beat UConn at the end of close games is to blitz Cole and get him trapped in a double team or make him have to pass the ball. The fact that RJ was on the bench for 4 minutes just helped WVU. Then they sprung the 1-3-1 and Hurley was surprised. We do not have enough players that can create their own shot. And when no one can hit open 3's it is a big problem. A second guard that can take the heat off Cole, drive the ball to the basket, hopefully draw some fouls and dish to our bigs is needed. Gaffney has to get better and be on the floor. He missed his free throw last night after a good drive. Right now we do not get enough points out of Jackson and Hawkins and Akok. The hot/cold of Tyler Polley's game is an issue. Whaley is doing what he is supposed to do. And Hurley has to get Diggins some minutes (2-3) in each half as it is a long season and he could be needed. [/QUOTE]
