Slow starts & rebounds

[Matrim55]

At one point against Sacred Heart we were being outrebounded 15-8. Currently against Maryland we're being outrebounded 14-7.

This is frustrating.

 

[nomar]

I'm shocked. This is a total disaster. Being outplayed at every position, in every facet.

 

[JMick]

We are absolutely awful. I have no idea what's going on but we look like a run of the mill mid-major.

 

[Ripper32]

Hamilton looks atrocious. We look so inexperienced.

 

[TRest]

They are not who we thought they were.

I'm shocked. This is a total disaster. Being outplayed at every position, in every facet.

It's hard to be really shocked as this team has shown the ability to play absolutely terrible stretches of basketball. They have also shown the ability to come back, although I have a pretty bad feeling that we aren't going to see the latter tonight.

 

[Rocktheworld]

It's allowing the offensive rebounds.

Man I wish Enoch was a senior

 

[RipCity]

Ollie needs to stop playing two of our worst players at a time.

When you're one of the worst offensive teams in the nation two years in a row in he first half, you have to look at the coach. Figure it out

 

[UConnMike04]

Just not that good, and with this conference may get passed over again. Hope that incoming class is the real deal or I'm scared for the future.

 

[BugsyCT]

Still time to come back, but man, this is fugly.

If this team has floor leaders they need to step up now and be leaders.

 

[Dove]

I'm at a loss for words. I wonder what @Fishy thinks.

Too many beta dogs.

 

[Matrim55]

They are not who we thought they were.

Chemistry is a real thing, and this team has yet to build any. Hopefully it'll come in the next couple of weeks before the league season starts.

I'm really disappointed that Miller doesn't rebound or defend, and that Gibbs is so hesitant running the point. But I'm hopeful that they'll eventually figure it out.

 

[Ripper32]

Maryland looks so much sharper and better coached. I don't think the talent levels reflect the score.

 

[Horatio]

We miss every close basket, no dribble penetration , no offensive strategy. The closer Gibbs gets to the basket the more he misses. Disaster .

 

[Ripper32]

Hamilton need to calm down and look at his options.

 

[UConnMike04]

Am I the only one that thinks Hamilton is the most overrated "star" we've had in a long time?

 

[Dove]

Game over...down 20. This hole we've dug is a grave.

 

[Ripper32]

Hamilton shouldn't be forcing the offense. He's not that type of player.

 

[Ripper32]

Ollie looks clueless about finding the right units.

 

[4UConn]

An real embarrassment. In JC's parlance, a lot of these guys couldn't guard a chair tonight.

 

[Leebo]

Am I the only one that thinks Hamilton is the most overrated "star" we've had in a long time?

Can the trolls wait for the game to end to start trolling, please.

 

[BugsyCT]

No excuse for this performance. Team had 6 days to prepare.

 

[Chuck]

I generally try not to post during games. I'm sure I'm being a bit more pessimistic than I should be. This team is not good at all. Im assuming NIT because of a bad AAC that will allow us to win some games.

The last two years are some of the worst offensive teams I've seen. Lack of talent, bad coaching? Don't know or care. Not fun to watch.

 

[BleedHuskyBlu]

Jalen needs to play at all times best guard on the team by far. Might as well get his development going now in a wasted season he will lead us somewhere in a year or 2

 

[UConnMike04]

Here's the facts: we are in a conference, have soft players, no size outside of Brimah who hasn't improved at all and Enoch whose a freshman. If we miss the tourney again that'll be 2/3 years under Ollie we have missed the tourney. That's indefensible. This team this year and last year have never shown up until it's too late and that falls on the coaches. Either not recruiting the right, tough minded kids we used to get, or lack of preparation. I love KO but if we have another terrible year with this supposed "talent" it's not a good look for him or for our future. Seems like ions ago we were always a Top 5, 10 team. Honestly don't see those days coming back anytime soon unfortunately.
