Murray State Game Thread

[warriors141]

I get what your saying, but I don't want to go back to square one and start all over again only to be here 5 years from now; again. We need athletes that can shoot and defend not guys who play in slow motion.

who cares if we have to start over. what we have now is a disaster

[jonny09]

We are going after two top 50 Minnesota recruits.   Wonder if they are watching.  Better yet, wonder if they watched the Minnesota game.

[Herman Cain]

Surprised at how weak we are on dunks.

[5DollarPitcher]

What was the gameplan? Run the tape back - there was no motion, no screens, no PLAN for this game. It's like Wojo's idea of coaching is yelling cliche's at the players. He thinks Hoosiers is real life. Get the Big East whipping boy out of our program NOW.  Experiment failed.

[willie warrior]

This team has been such a disappointment and the blame goes to Wojo. He cannot coach, and these are all his kids. What an embarassment. The program will be laughed at after this performance, except by a few on this board who cannot distinguish between a mediocre coach and good coaches. Time for a new power point.

[WinnipegWarrior]

How could we not be ready for this???

Wojo's next adjustment to what the opponent is doing will be his first.

[Anti-Dentite]

I've tried to stay positive throughout this end of season skid but what a disaster, I'm done with Wojo coached teams, he does not have what it takes to move this program forward.

[Bad_Reporter]

I know it won't matter to MU brass, but I will not be buying season tickets next year.  I just can't support Wojo any longer

[NickelDimer]

unfortunately howard will be back again next to throw up even more stupid teardrops when he had wide open teammates calling for the ball.  Even Debbie is critical of Howard; doesn't take much to see how selfish he is and how much it negatively impacts the entire team

She's also called Wojo out twice. Once for not taking advantage of our size and then clowned him for going  away from zone after it worked. She's running circles around our head coach

[redbirdwarrior]

Will someone go back to the locker room and get the team?  They haven't shown up this half.

[mumagz84]

Just a total embarrassment!  Wow!  I figured this would be tough against Morant, but the overall weaknesses of Wojo's first true "Winning" team in his tenure are shining through. SMH

[muhoops1]

I like Wojo and think he's done a solid job, but he needs to coral Howard next year and teach him how to play basketball. He doesn't have the game to be dominating the ball like he's Russell Westbrook. He should be like a 17 ppg, 8 asst guy. If he can't adjust his game he should sit. It's destroying the rest of the team.

That will not happen.  He's married to the kid.  Values him above all else.  In his defense the other 6 or 7 are often unreliable

[Afroman]

I turned off with 13 minutes left -- couldn't tolerate it anymore.

[pbiflyer]

Done. Wake me when we get a new coach

[JoeSmith1721]

There's no point in double teaming someone when neither of the defenders can stay in front. It becomes a 5 v 3.

[f/k/a humanlung]

This team is SOFT.

Amen.

[Cheeks]

Anyone ready to accept what is now appearing to be a fact that:

1) we were grossly overrated all year
2) we need a guard who can pass
3) we still cannot play team defense after five years of Wojo, and;
4) apparently, coaches in many different conferences all share the trait that they can out game coach Wojo.

Matchups matter.  We are playing the worst kind of team for us.  For you to ignore this is comical.

Yes, we need a PG, we knew that all year....nothing new.

Statistically you are wrong, we played team defense all year at a good clip.  A team like this is going to kill us.  If we hadn't, we wouldn't have beaten the Big 12 champ, Wisconsin, Louisville, Nova, etc.

Matchups matter.  Always have and always will

[MarquetteFan94]

Get Heldt some run. Seriously

Completely agree

[NickelDimer]

Joey is so god damn bad on defense

[Afroman]

I hope mediocre Woj reads this thread and I would bet my bottom dollar he does.

[whitykj]

Big East regular season title and at least sweet 16 next year or Wojo needs to go.  And I have been pro Wojo all these years, but this game has blown the torch under his seat. 

[WolfganghisKhan]

Outcoached, outplayed and out hustled.

[Bad_Reporter]

I hope mediocre Woj reads this thread and I would bet my bottom dollar he does.

I'm sure he does.  I mean I got chewed out from my boss for stating something on here that I was flying him.  I definitely believe he reads this forum or definitely has staff who does

You know what else matters?  Proper game planning.  Coaches throughout the NCAA are somehow able to effectively plan around matchups with far less talented players than are on this team. They win with that game planning.

We have demonstrated ZERO ability to handle difficult matchups for Wojo's entire tenure.

To ignore that fact is not comical, it's sad.

ja morant just kicked the crap outta howard. kinda like powell did
