Vanderbilt game thread

[MattyWarrior]

North Carolina all over again. Embarassing on national tv.We show no heart.

[GGGG]

No size, no shooting, settling for j's, no paint touches outside of Jae...

Wilson plays smaller than his height.

This is the essence of the problem.  We don't get enough inside scoring.  Only one reliable inside wing (Jae) and he is undersized.

[Da 'Lanche]

What is a reverse turkey?    When you stop yourselves from scoring 3 straight times?   This is really ugly.    I guess everyone is due a clunker, but, at home and trying to finish off non-conference play strong?  wow.

[Mike Deane's Seat Belt]

wow what a joke, we should be out of the top 25 for this one

[Aughnanure]

I have never seen a team shoot so cold.

This is much more that "cold" shooting, our entire offense looks completely inept.

"Heart" isn't the issue.  We cannot shoot.

2-20 from the field.....

[77ncaachamps]

It means we can blame everything that goes wrong for the rest of the season on the Otule injury and be forever blameless.

Who wants to tangle underneath other than Jae?

Nobody (except Davante).

Vander can't shoot.
Todd's turning the ball over.
DJO's tail is between his legs.
Junior has been attacking the rim. I don't blame him. Who's gonna be there?
JWil settles for outside shots.
Buzz has more three point attempts than DWil.

craziness...

Buzz better have some adjustments.

And go recruiting for some bigs.

[MilWarrior]

Refs calling mercy fouls for us at this point. I'm four strong beers deep at this point with no plans to slow down. We can't even score from the line!!!

[StillWarriors]

Haven't been this embarrassed by MU since the nightmare against Kansas....but at least that was in the Final Four.  Tough to regain credibility unless we turn this around big time. Really thought DJO was gonna be a force this year. He, and everybody else, look awful.

[Mike Deane's Seat Belt]

apparently "AND ONE" for our team means we get fouled and we make only one of the free throws.        I'm so sick of somebody shouting out and one when we dont even make the bucket, its sad.

we have no jump shooters. DJO is a huge disappointment in big games.

You should probably down a shot of tequila everytime we hit a 3 going forward....you will either bring us great luck or pass out and miss this atrocity.

All I read on this board all week was how underrated we are at #13.

+1000 for DJO, or as he should be nicknamed in this half: MIA. This is absolutely baffling. This board may melt down tonight. The trolling will be off the charts.

[Aughnanure]

Buzz needs to get a real shooter (where are you Jamail?) and always have 3+ Bigs on the team (Jamil doesnt count).

[MattyWarrior]

They can just pack the middle with size,no rebounds for us. I knew lack of size would kill us. early burial

[steff_mckee]

We have been to the NCAA tournament for successive years and are a top 30 program perenially.....why do always get "project" big men? Clue me in please.

[jesmu84]

defense was supposed to the difference between this team being #15-25 or #1-10. the offense was supposed to be consistent and bring the scoring every night. has there been any evidence that the offense is that good this year? at all?

[MilWarrior]

Sounds like the best case scenario either way. Love your thinking.

+1, the problems with this team have been alarming since Otule went down.

[avid1010]

maybe not heart, but brains wouldn't hurt.  i understand a bad shooting night...i don't understand giving up so many open threes, not boxing out, making stupid fouls when we're already missing CO, etc.  mayo turns the ball over but he's trying to be agressive.  djo, shooting step back jumpers all night.  he's blowing it big time in front of a lot of NBA scouts...too bad.

I'm breaking out the Makers Mark now.

[Da 'Lanche]

DJO and Crowder are really disappointing right now as our seniors.   This should be the type of game they step up and shine.   Vandy looks hungry as hell for this game and we look tentative on both ends.  

Still a LOT of season left but like the UW game showed some of our best....this is showing our absolute worst.   Which team are we this year ane which team will we be in the conference?

[TheFarEastMovement]

If we can't make our shots, at least make them free throws.
