Yea that's a big issue, hard to say if it's a Karaban thing or UConn because AK is the only one who ever inbounds the ball but he does it every time and every time we struggle to inbound the ball because of it.
Exactly
The Big East is only getting 3 or 4 bids max. If we finish forth or fifth with our limited quality wins, we're out.
That 2 good players stepped up and had career games. Also Marquette and Chreighton aren't that good this year.
I mean we were hacked or tripped on 2-3 or or attempts to inbound the ball and didn't get a foul call...
Not as bad as losing to Wagner and Northeastern, but close.
And they would have if the officials did their job properly. Do you think Dan Hurley should have practice sessions on how to handle poorly officiated games, on top of how not to sleep walk?
Not as currently constituted. But in general, yes, I do. Looks like we tend to lose as heavy favorites. Looks like we play well as heavy underdogs. What do you think we will be in the tourney?
No -hit. Any reasonably knowledgeable basketball fan could agree. High school coaches do better.
Yeah this one will really hurt us this year even if we make the Tourney. We are looking at a 9 seed at best with the way we play.
Because diarra couldn’t stay in front of him on one leg.
I need some of that Kool-aid you are drinking. LOL
And we play better against good teams and struggle with sucky teams. That's a coach not motivating his players. That and poor coaching at end of game.
You take yourrrr timeeeeeee because with more than one minute left the clock CONTINUES TO RUN.
Steph and Ajax in the dunk contest tonight.
100%. It's a proven time stalling tactic that has worked wonders for us in the past (especially at the end of 1st halves, when the clock doesn't stop after made baskets), but you gotta know when to employ it and when not to.
We need a lot more than the incoming freshman if we want to get back to contending for the Big East title and making noise in the tournament
I don’t completely disagree. I more so just trying to plug holes instead of engaging in a complete roster overhaul. We have 3 MCDAA coming in next season, Ball will be back, I’d expect Stewart and Ross back, as well as Ahmad and Abraham. How do we build around that group? I think by adding size and physicality at the guard and wing spots. I think a successful off season would start with adding a big stud at the guard spot. And just hope and pray that Reed, Ball, Stewart, Ross, Ahmad and Abraham get. better
We're expecting freshman to execute this drivel better than this veteran team? Don't hold your breath lol
I'm sure they spend lots of time on it. But this team is not very athletic and have a hard time getting open. Karaban was like a deer steering into the headlights on a couple those inbounds. The last one Diarra was open on his left side cut. And when they over-play them going long is a good option but sending one of your non-athletic guys down court to be a wide receiver isn't smart.
