Koby McEwen
« on: March 07, 2020, 11:43:41 AM »
Are there still clowns that defend this guy??

He is an absolute black eye on the program. He plays defense?? Hes getting torched. There is not one thing he does well on the floor.

A mid half time transfer is what this team needs.

Multiplication by subtraction, hes that bad.

An honest question, but does anyone know if he is going to graduate?

Unless his schoolwork is infinitely better than his basketball IQ, sadly I doubt it.

I'm not thrilled with Wojo's results but lay off Koby.

Koby is busting his but to play as well as he can for our team. I'm sure he is a first class person like Wojo and the rest of the team. Outside of wins and losses this is a coach and team we can be proud of as MU fans.

Agree.  Don’t dog the players.

Coaches, that’s another story.

The problem is Koby has not grown up.

Sure he is a nice person, but he has been a not so nice basketball player.

In the last five games, including today with a half to go:

5 made field goals at 26%
17 total points
16 turnovers
16 fouls

Not good and has been that way throughout the BE season.  Maybe he can clean the slate for BE tournament.

I have zero problem with fans calling for Wojo to sit him. I can support the position that he's not BE worthy in talent (that's on Wojo). But I have no doubt he's doing the best he can for MU and I can appreciate him for that.

Yup, no problem with the guy, but he has not been the player as expected and his play was a big detriment to the team all season.  Probably the worst stats of a second guard in the Big East.  Can he turn it around for two more games, who knows.

Personal attacks are not good.  Game stuff different story.  I dont blame Koby we as fans know what he brings.  Sad thing is our coach doesnt and  chose to put him in the game 3 times in the second half, all with predictable results.  And we lost by 2.  Gonna argue we win if koby doesnt play

I don’t agree with attacking him personally or calling him names but his play has been very very disappointing.  His play in the last 6-7 games has cost us all those games.

I agree. Lay off Koby. He’s had a tough year.

The head coach is the one who is the adult making millions and makes the PT decisions.

That is brutal sports logic.

Does Wojo deserve blame for continuing to play him??? Absolutely.

But the "blame the coach" only trope is exactly why teams like the Cleveland Browns are always looking for new coaches and are always terrible. Or in hockey when like 90% of coach firings come from teams with bottom 10 goal tending. It's never just the coach

At some point the full picture needs to be realized

It took him 29 1/2 games to bench him and Elliott played much better than him.

And you called him an adult, Einstein. Jesus. You graduated from Marquette? Every time you post on here my degree seems less and less valuable.

Being call “an absolute black eye on the program” isn’t being held accountable. It’s an attack on him personally. For not playing a game as well as expected. It’s pure fukking trash.

lol what. No, I dont hold him accountable for getting major minutes when he is playing poorly. That is on the coach to limit his minutes. You want to state koby is playing bad? cool. Great analysis, no one is disagreeing. Don't blame the kid because he keeps getting granted playing time.

"black eye on the program" is silly.  He's not that.  He's just not good at basketball.  At all.

Watching him is a similar experience to watching Derrick Wilson, except a little worse.  Derrick couldn't do anything on offense, so it was like playing 4 on 5.  Koby actively sabatoges the offense with his decision making and turnovers.  It's like playing 4 on 6. 

I'm curious what film sessions are like?  Does Koby see what he is doing and doesn't have the ability to fix it? 

Also, why did it take 29.5 games for Wojo to park him?  Was he trying to fulfill recruiting promises? 

I guess more questions than answers, but that's where we are right now.
