Dawson back in and instantly we get two great looks and score.

dawson back in and instantly gives up a drive and commits a foul.

see i can do it too.

edit: oh. now an "and1" foul.

[PGsHeroes32]

Now Dawson with 4 fouls.

Well, were screwed.

[Nevada233]

Thank god for steve taylor

[forgetful]

Dawson's 4th.  Poop.

Horrible overplay 25 ft from the ball by mayo, cost Dawson a foul.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Why is Dawson in with four fouls?

And where was the goaltending call on Davantes layup? We should be tied

[NavinRJohnson]

Love his attitude and what he brings to the program on and off the court...

What does he bring off the court.

[GooooMarquette]

Yikes

When we we going to get a "yikes" on Dawson's non-existent defense and 4 fouls?

But the thing is...we actually are ahead when he plays.

We lose or heck don't even score we he isn't.

So you really can't do it too.

dude. come on. support everyone please...

[wardle2wade]

can we start #freestevetaylor again?

By the looks lf it, I think he's finally free of that knee injury.  

[jtrash37]

I honestly don't understand how people cannot see that Dawson is a better PG option.  In spite of the 4 fouls, he changes MU's offensive flow for the better.

Oh, WELCOME BACK STEVE TAYLOR!!!

10 wins with derrick starting. i know you're being hyperbolic. but maybe say something that can't be proven wrong easily.

[LloydMooresLegs]

I hope that's it.  Last year's Steve.

We can Yikes to todd mayos blown coverage that led to the foul

Teams are not gonna defend wilson thats why hes not out there. Like it or not.

[MUfan12]

Big stretch here for Derrick. Needs to shake off the poor start pronto.

Like the high-low game with Davante and Taylor. Something the Oxtule lineup can't do.

[Da 'Lanche]

In all seriousness....did Taylor just get healthy enough to play?  If he has had this type of effort and effectiveness sitting on the bench all year, Buzz has some 'splainin' to do...

[GoldenWarrior11]

Regardless of whether Dawson or D. Wilson is in, the argument is that the team plays 4 on 5.

With Derrick Wilson, the team plays 4 on 5 on offense - he doesn't drive and/or shoot.  Period.

With John Dawson, he gives up a lot defensively - and it costs either himself or teammates fouls by protecting the basket.

Can we just morph them into "Derrick Dawson" - getting Dawson's offense and D. Wilson's defensive experience?

[Markusquette]

i don't know if you're insulting me. but i never said he shouldn't do that. but buzz, before tonight, has always gone off playing to the scouting report, practice effort, etc.

it's the change itself, and not what the change is, that's most interesting.

Don't mean to insult, but I think there's more to it than just playing the hot hand.  Dawson moves the ball better on offense and Taylor is just as talented as Gardner on the offensive end.  I'm not saying that just because of tonight but I've felt this way about Taylor's offensive ability since his first few games as a freshman.  

I chalked his limited time to his knee problems....but you're right in that Buzz finally may be giving a nod to the guys not practicing hard.  I'm cool with what Buzz tries as he is still learning at this stage.  It's just refreshing to see Taylor and Dawson a part of a pretty competent offense.  Sorry to respond in that manner.

Yes.  That was on Mayo.  Not Dawson.  Hater.

[PGsHeroes32]

lol when you have to get technical with a 10-8 record. You know you're reaching.

[jesmu84]

dawson stays in with 4 fouls.

unlike anti-derrick people, i hope he does well

[real chili 83]

Lubick is playing well for us.

[LloydMooresLegs]

I hope I was wrong about first to 46 wins.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

That Smith-Rivera kid will be playing in the association one day

[Lennys Tap]

 Bad Todd showing up again tonight
