Ok Derrick guys, come on...that move and shot by my boy Dawson was sweeeet!

Was a great move that shows he has a great feel for game..was nice hesitation/stutter/wiggle..under complete control..and in for a nice mid-range pull up.

Also made nice advance pass to Jamil just now..that was a whisker away from giving Jamil an easy layin...

His defense needs work...but he has good skills on offensive end..

Juan should not play more than 2 minutes a half.

Jamil is 0 for 3 and a turnover.  Again, needs to step up or lose.

Gardner being harrassed by much taller Desoriers and just throwing up shots.

Lets see how much time Dawson gets because Mayo is on Cotton right now.  Whoops Dwil back already and Desoriers blocks.

Jamil's block and then take to the rim on the offensive end were the two most athletic plays from him on the season. glad he waited for the next to last game to bring them out...

If Davante would've gotten the offensive rebound and put-back at the buzzer you would not be saying this...Jake needs to take any open shot he can get, no way of knowing Henton would go coast-to-coast.

Title: Re: Providence game thread
Post by: nyg on March 04, 2014, 09:06:32 PM
On that last shot, OK Jake had a look, but our sharpshooter missed a wide open shot.  His only one of half.

Stats equal:

MU 40%  PC 44%

MU 2 for 5 from three, PC 3 for 10

4 free throws for each team.  Big difference from last game.

Jamil is 2 for 6.   Jeeez.

Your starting MU backcourt:

Jake 0 for 1, 1 assist, 1 rebound, 1 turnover, 2 fouls
Dwil 0 for 1, 0 assist, 1 rebound, 0 turnovers


And that folks is pretty pathetic for a Div I, BE team's backcourt.  Lots of time, so maybe swing it around.

Last: Juan should not play more than two minutes in the half.  Has just regressed to a new level.  Shame.

Hopefully Cooley keeps playing into our hands and puts more zone on the floor...seems they were up ~7-10 at time he implemented zone...

Hopefully Cooley keeps playing into our hands and puts more zone on the floor...seems they were up ~7-10 at time he implemented zone...

Nice seeing Burton getting some good minutes...and Todd being allowed to play through a rough start...and he rewarded the run with 5 points..

Announcers said this allows the Friars to rest a bit

Not tonight he is 0 for 7 in second half.  He does have 10 rebounds, but his shooting is brutal.

And our point guard misses another free throw.

I don't care how much people are gonna bitch at the end of this season about Buzz. He's made some mistakes. But bottom line...his players a) aren't that good. and b) the ones we depend on...the seniors and upper classmen just can't/didn't do it consistently enough.

Still like this team next year....provided Juan and Derrick don't get too much PT.

Looking at the replay, don't think he got fouled.  They played it pretty smart.  Didn't grab him, didn't do the normal intentional foul thing.  Almost looked like it was a planned play, see if he will hold it for a second, try for the tie up and if it doesn't work then foul.

I've seen this happen now twice in the last two years, same idea and each time it has worked for the defensive team.  Could have sworn it happened to MU last year....maybe it was IU...can't remember.

Congrats to Mayo in spite of a coach who doesn't support him he had the best game of his career. If Buzz has any objectivity left we should see him start against St. Johns. This season is over but if Buzz learned the best players are not always the ones you like or play the best in practice or look like NBA players. The best players are those who can win games. Mayo was a winner tonight. He deserves SoG. Although the team lost. Marquette has found a leader. This should, therefore, be the first SoG in a loss.

Looking at the replay, don't think he got fouled.  They played it pretty smart.  Didn't grab him, didn't do the normal intentional foul thing.  Almost looked like it was a planned play, see if he will hold it for a second, try for the tie up and if it doesn't work then foul.


He did the right thing...sort of. Ok to hold the ball like that and draw the foul, you just don't keep it stationary as he did so they can reach in and grab it...if the ball is moving, its a foul.

I've seen this happen now twice in the last two years, same idea and each time it has worked for the defensive team.  Could have sworn it happened to MU last year....maybe it was IU...can't remember.


Cooley told the refs prior to the inbound they were going for a jump ball before the foul.  He planted the seed.

This was Derrick's worst game in a MU uniform. He was the bizarro version of Mayo out there. Perplexed that he got so much more run than Dawson in this one. Hopefully the DeWilson experiment is over. Use him for defensive purposes only like Otule but give Dawson the lion's share of minutes here on out as well as next year. Great kid, glad he's at MU, just not a starting 30+ mpg PG on a team that has any postseason aspirations.

Congrats to Mayo in spite of a coach who doesn't support him he had the best game of his career.


You really have no clue.  Todd has received more support from Buzz than pretty much anyone on this earth outside of his family.

I can't believe they have a high school inbounds play at this point of the season,crushing loss! What is wrong with
this team and coaches? No one gets better and the year is over..........

Congrats to Mayo in spite of a coach who doesn't support him he had the best game of his career. If Buzz has any objectivity left we should see him start against St. Johns. This season is over but if Buzz learned the best players are not always the ones you like or play the best in practice or look like NBA players. The best players are those who can win games. Mayo was a winner tonight. He deserves SoG. Although the team lost. Marquette has found a leader. This should, therefore, be the first SoG in a loss.
Couldnt agree more, at the end of the game shooting those free throws you just knew he wasnt going to miss, a flat out gamer

Extremely bold statement. There are a lot of games to pick from.

Good to hear that. Now maybe he will play him more.

Well, if it's any consolation, that game led off SportsCenter AND put Providence in the tourney per Lunardi.  (Nope, not a consolation.)

I got kicked out of the restaurant I was watching it at with 55 seconds to go in the regulation. Just me and the owner with his coat on so I guess I'm lucky not having to endure it on TV.

I give.  I'm as negative as they get, but that ending beats 'em all.  We are stupid.  Period.  End of Story.  Collectively a low basketball IQ.

Sorry, I  forgot. I think I will try harder at brain surgery. I do no blame the players. They all fill roles better than I could ever do, just no the ones they have been given.
