Oso planning to go pro
Mostly slept-walked through this one. Pretty dull performance.
It was a win. It wasn't inspiring. Better that than a bad loss.
Stevie showed flashes of what he can do tonight….and had his best collegiate game. He was one of the few who brought the energy.
Really liked Shaka subbing all 5. Thought he should have done the same vs. St. Bonaventure. The second unit gave the team great energy, yes, but they also played quite well together. I can just imagine that while the subs were kicking butt, Shaka was telling the starters: "This is what I need from you!" Mitchell was really good. He was in control, he looked to get to the rim, he hit a 3, he had only 1 TO (on a night when we had 20). Just a nice all-around performance for the freshman. After averaging 22.5 ppg on 54% shooting (57% from 3) in our first 4 games, Morsell is averaging 8 points on 22% shooting (11% from 3) the last 3. He looked frustrated a couple times tonight, and perhaps it affected his D as he let his man past him on a few occasions. Here's hoping the first-4-games Darryl is closer to the real Darryl.Kolek also has looked meh the last couple of games, and he has 11 turnovers the last 3 games. Need better, more predictable play from the guy who's gonna have the rock most of the time.Another fine game for Lewis. After spotting Morsell a pretty large lead, Justin is now the scoring leader by 1 ppg. The picture of consistent scoring: 17, 17, 17, 21, 17, 17, 15. Also the leading rebounder at 8.1 rpg.OMP reminds me of a young Juan Anderson. Lots of activity but not a lot to show for it. Kuath doing his job, in limited minutes, as a rim protector. Kam and Joplin are not shy to shoot.Pretty boring game, but that's OK. A boring win is better than an exciting loss!
6 negative or neutral points out of 10.We won by 14. We are 6-1. Don’t be so hard on everything. Shaka is a good coach. This program is poised to make noise. Namaste.
These guys have played 7 games together. No one on the team has played together other than Greg and Jamal before this season. I think we are ahead of schedule. Not worried.
Dropped from 78 to 83 in Kenpom. Nice!
Playing down to competition isn’t exactly new in sports. They did that and still won comfortably. More importantly this team has already shown they can play up to competition.
??? I assume you meant Justin?
Much of the drop due to the Bonnie’s bad home loss to Northern Iowa.
I would take the Rick SLU program right now.
