Friars thoughts
« on: March 01, 2015, 04:29:36 PM »
1.  The team didn't quit.
2.  It looked like they had for a while, but they dug deep and played with pride down the stretch.
3.  Not enough intelligence, but pride. 
4.  Not enough weapons.
5.  Briefly scared a tourney team at their gym.
6.  Rebounding was atrocious.
7.  Juan still looks like he is limping.

Jajuan needs to figure something out, it's hard to see how he'll be any sort of reliable contributor in the future.

Carlino and Derrick the leading rebounders for MU.   Sometimes stats tell the story.

27 three attempts, 50 percent of shots attempted

45 to 25 rebounds, 19 to 6 offensive

6 for 12 free throws.

Stats like that and you won't win too often.

Fought hard but a PF and PG are needed, cause Du Wilson can light it up when hot. Russ Smith like.......

According to resident moron Ners, JJJ's problems are a result of bad coaching. I see a very overrated HS player who struggles at the high major level college level.

I disagree.  I think he has finally started to figure it out.  He has struggled the last two games (after really doing well), because of the physical nature of the opponent. 

He just isn't strong enough right now to really play his game against physical opponents. In contrast though to earlier in the season, he didn't force as much anymore and lets the game come to him.

An offseason getting stronger and I see him being a big contributor for us.

JJJ and Cohen couldn't have been much worse. I still think both will contribute in the future.

He has had far fewer mental mistakes over the last few games. Just isn't there yet physically.

He is a slasher type who cannot shoot. He is 37% from field and 21% from three. As a SG he needs to improve that along with strength otherwise a new recruit who can will see floor time. Wish him the best in off season.

Our rebounding is non-existent.  Todd needs to bulk these guys up and we have to hope Heldt hits the weight room quickly after this season ends for him.  

Du is going to be a monster.  As TAMU said, I'm so happy he redshirted last year.

He has to get bigger and start finishing at the rim or become a much better shooter. I'm not holding my breath on either of those.

That's why I'd be happy with O'field. Not a great shooter but he's  got a 40+ inch vertical and would provide some much needed muscle. Way stronger than our current 2/3's

another game another loss. my thoughts are thank God there are only 3 games left in this wasted season. besides the play of duane and occasionally luke not much to be excited about with the players on this team.

Agreed. Duane and Fischer are the only two returning guys I'm counting on as contributors next year. Taylor looks like he will be a solid backup 4.

Invites to the MU BBall team for 2015-16:  Duane Wilson, Luke Fischer (needs to improve significantly),  Cohen (needs to improve significantly). All the rest can find a new team (probably Div 3) or transfer. That is the reality of this pitiful team
