Colgate game thread

Absolutely not. But that doesnt mean we are playing well

If colgate can stay within striking distance in the 2nd half I will be very nervous.

anyone starting to think that condensation is a good thing?

[Earl Tatum]

Aforementioned---- Where is Taylor?

[nyg]

Good: Wilson looks great
        Otule seems fine with knees
        Gardner, well is Gardner.  Team plays so much better with him in.
        Lockett started out good, but sort of disappeared.
        D. Wilson got minutes, but no points.
        Created 14 turnovers, with only 4 for MU

Bad:  Vander looks terrible, 1 for 6 and sat on bench a long time.  Thomas took his minutes.
       3 point defense again.  

Know its first game and all, but MU should destroy this team in second half.  

See what happens with 3 point shooting and just plain outside shooting because the first half was not very good in that.  MU had like 80% of scoring from inside.  Teams will just zone them.

Lets see what happens.

We're up by 11 at the end of the first half in which we went 10 players deep. Relax. They'll settle down and things will start to come together more fluidly.

Looking forward to seeing Taylor.

[AZWarrior]

I'm calling it now.  DG - MU's best defensive player.  I mean, did you see him take that charge early?

And yes, he sure looks great on offense.   

[real chili 83]

CO.  Nice.

[chapman]

Did Otule sit out with a knee injury last year or was that a cover for going to Europe to ball a little?  Does not look tentative or rusty at all.

Stone is sitting behind the bech with DW

Using this game as a barometer is silly.  MU is better, knew they were better going in, and are winning based on talent and size.  This won't always be the case, and we'll have to see going forward how MU looks against like opponents.

But if they continue to give up layups on defense and show no signs on any outside shooting, the better teams will not have mercy.

BTW, Lockett is going to be a nice player for this team.

Otule may be our best offensive player so far. (Wilson excluded)

So Wilson is our best offensive player.

8 for 15 from free throw line.  53%.  Here we go again?

Now Anderson hurt shoulder.  Hope its not the one just repaired.

[real chili 83]

I like these announcers.

He was holding his right shoulder.

[Boone]

Junior seems as offensively bereft as ever.

[jeffreyweee]

Alright, I'll say it. I miss Todd.

[Les Nessman]

We're up by 20. What more do you want? I hope you aren't this tough on your kids.

[Knight Commission]

Bottom line our front court is the best since 94. Our backcourt average. Would like to see more playmaking outside of transition.

[MarquetteDano]

Nice to see Ferguson hit that banker in the lane.  Welcome to Marquette young man!

I really liked the 3 by anderson, it looked smooth.
