Fire Wojo !

The two freshmen are high basketball IQ guys and I like that big time. Plus they are athletic and basketball players. They are two kids that I believe can be very, very solid building blocks for the future.

Goose - high IQ? I think so. Basketball players? Definitely. Athletic? I'd say solid but not uber athletic (could be wrong about Marcus). IMHO our entire team's biggest shortcoming is a lack of elite athleticism.

I don't know.  I don't recall 'Nova as being elite athletes last year and that turned out kinda okay.

You know we lost (to UW, no less) with a long break until the next game when there's a 7-page thread titled "Fire Wojo."

[Oh no, I'm contributing to its length.]

I don't count HE as a high school player - to me he was Matt Carlino or Katin Reinhardt, a one year transfer.

That leaves Matt Heldt, Traci Carter and HC from class #1. HC was pretty good at playing basketball as a freshman, not very good so far this year. Traci was "meh", Matt's a little less than that.

This year's two are better. Sam can play and Markus can really play.

Of the three guys next year I don't see any sure things.

Lots of Buzz's guys were either overrated or didn't have the toughness required to make it in his program - I'll grant you that. From what I've seen, that toughness isn't as much a requirement with Wojo.

HC is averaging 12/5/3 (rounded) on a 47/33/88 slash line. He has also cut his turnovers down from 2.7 to 1.0 per game. He's fine. He's had a few poor games, but overall he's been good.

Athletic enough because they have the IQ and basketball skills. If you have those two nailed it makes things much easier.

Jacking up 3 pointers.

Wow, one of a few dozen teams shooting over 40 percent on 3s, 11 th best shooting (eFG) in country and 15th best offense in country. Two of three freshman in the country try hitting g 50 percent of threes. Strange attack line there.

Could not agree more. Athleticism can be built. Basketball skills can be taught though not as easily as athleticism can be built. Basketball IQ is a you have it or you don't.

Maybe not quite "North Carolina" athletic but way more athletic (and much stronger physically) than us.

I agree with "much stronger" but not "way more athletic" than us. Jenkins and Brunson are slow. Arch got by on smarts. Chef was down the line average athletically. Hart is above average but not special athletic. Booth and Bridges are good athletes.

Lotta people had some pretty strong opinions in this thread and are nowhere to be found tonight. I'm willing to bet they don't show up for a while either

Bingo.

[rocket surgeon]

Start it now, why not ?  Poor discipline. Poor coaching. Jacking up 3 pointers. Poor defense. No accountability. Another year of disappointment. Another year of poor defense against 3, poor interior defense and poor shooting. That's it ! How many millions does MU spend on BBall????????

i couldn't help myself...let's see, how much $pub$ did this generate?   waiting.....

[forgetful]

Wojo to Duke.

[rocket surgeon]

start it now, why not?  i vote we fire mcderjim

[B. McBannerson]

I don't see the fire in Wojo that I remember when he was a tough, top notch Duke PG. Kevin O'Neill had fire from Day 1, when we were at our lowest after years of incompetence. Sure, I understand he was 'improper' at times. And I understand Wojo has the youngest team around (as O'Neill had against Duke). But damn, show some fire. (Afraid you may screw up your future dream job ?) Duane needs a kick up the butt. jJJ needs to go to Div 3. We lost by 30 which could have been 50 ..make a point! Mediocrity can only be accepted for so long.

Fire whiskey in O'Neill doesn't count.  Sojourn has plenty of fire

I think the FW crowd cancelled today's meeting, stay tuned for the next session
