I agree. Temple is no Wichita, Villanova, Houston, Tulsa, or Memphis. They got Temple at home at Gampel with a raucous home crowd. That's a huge advantage.Temple sux. Cmon. Gaffney does nothing either. We have no one

I was screaming at the tv. Possession after possession it seemed to be the same thing. I remember one drive no call, think it was vital, the defender had his arm around him like a bare hug and no ball. Bouknight got abused. Its aggravating and frustrating too feel like this continues to happen game after game. So many ticky tack fouls called on Bouknight, Whaley and others, while stronger more forceful contact from Memphis goes unpunished.Iagree with him. We got pounded with no calls, not touch fouls but slammed and no call, then we go down and get a moving screen?
Gaffney makes good decisions? He does nothing. Even tho he’s a frosh , he’s clearly not ready. Thought he’d be much farther along right now. Very disappointing this year. Crazy to say, but id still rather have AG in there, at least u kno he can play good on the ball D and maybe (25% chance get to the hole, drop a dime or make a jumper) , Gaffney prolly 10% chance. Sorry it’s trueI'll take the PG in Gaffney who makes good decisions
You do realize, after today, they're 10-2 when leading at the half? They're only losses when leading at the half are to #21 Houston and 16-5 Memphis.The second half has been the killer....Huskies are 2-10 when ahead at the half....
Gaffney our best passer? Huh?He made plenty of good passes today. If you don't realize he's our best passer there's really nothing to talk about.
Awful foul call on whalley. Precious literally threw himself into whalley. Whalley had his arms up holding position.There was more contact from Achiuwa on that play than the call on Whaley who was moving backwards hands straight up, Achiuwa created the contact. Always getting the short end of the stick.
I agree. There was more contact from precious on the other end. Total BS.Awful foul call on whalley. Precious literally threw himself into whalley. Whalley had his arms up holding position.
Who else are you going to put in coach? Gaffney didn't do a damn thing today. NOTHING. I stick with my veteran players in that situation. I really don't care what you have to say.
You didn't even answer my question.Your veteran players have resulted in nothing but awful offense, losing seasons, and the worst stretch the program has seen in 40 years.
But sure. Good plan.
And ur strategy would be?You fight and scrap for 36 minutes every game and then give it to AG and CV to go 1 on 5. Same script every single game for years. What's the point of all that wasted energy when you give them the same keys to crash the car every single time. You will never ever get a different result.
Other than Florida, the team has not demonstrated itself to be capable of winning a game when the other team is within striking distance. I've seen ill-advised shots, unnecessarily-rifled passes, dead-end drives to the basket, shots not taken before the clock expires, lost dribbles, substitutions that look like secon-guessing, and today a late foul so perplexing that it might raise point-shaving suspicions in another time and place (NOT today).Every game is lost before the final 4 minutes despite us being tied or leading going into those last 4 minutes. Brilliant analysis, now why do you think that is...
I gave you a like for the Stuart Smalley comment.
There goes your secret. I'd like it too.I have a secret hope that Sal decides that the bulky Carlton experiment is a failure and he trims him down while still going building up his upper body and that it give us a quicker JC who isn't glued to the floor and can finish at the rim.
yesGaffney our best passer? Huh?
Heal well, stay ahead of the pain, but drop off the hydrocodone as soon as you can.The point is the Young bucks are getting game experience for most of the game. And besides the Young bucks aren't shooting much better so put it in the hands of more seasoned guys. Makes sense to me. I'm also two days deep into hydrocodone after knee surgery....
We have you.Temple sux. Cmon. Gaffney does nothing either. We have no one
Still think AG is better passer /distrbutor. I mean shoot, I cud do what Gaffney does- bring the ball across the timeline and make safe pass to open guy on wing 25 feet from basket. When do you ever see him penetrate and dish to someone for an open look? He’s prolly are safest , most careful, most afraid to do anything pg. doesn’t make him a better passer than Agyes
I’m decent fir a 40 yr old lol. . Be honest. U expected more from Gaffney by now. His stat line was 0/0 today. I’m defending AG by trying to simmer all this Gaffney talk. Doesn’t matter who’s in late. We re not good right now. It’s ok to say it. Better times aheadWe have you.
You're pretty good, right?
AG vs. Gaffney..Same argument different thread.
Without listing every one, I think every point that has been by all posters, pro and con , for each player is valid.
