His per 40 stats are pretty flat, year over year, from what he was at Louisiana Tech. Maybe he can take a jump with a proper and healthy off-season of training, and he's going to have the advantage of being age 23 against (mostly) younger players. I think it's more likely this is what he is, or, im...

PeterRamTime

Yes BB same here. I know even though he is thought of as a 4, it is hard to consider him a big and he plays more like a wing or SF. Fuchs is really our only true big/banger and we are definitely going to need more help there. You had Brown and Foumena but Miller rarely played Fuchs and either Brown...

Well UConn is going to destroy NW. FAU UConn could have been way more fun. Booooo I think Uconn's region is absolutely brutal. I don't think they repeat. It wouldn't surprise me at all if Auburn beats them. I think FAU at their best could have given them a game, don't think NW has a chance in hell,...

PeterRamTime

Fuchs was a freshman, though, and Green was productive, although after digging into his stats I'm probably a bit more pessimistic on him than some others. His assist rate is crazy low, so he's essentially a black hole on offense, which isn't completely awful because he's productive on that end. His...

PeterRamTime

I think in today's game, you probably want four "big" guys - two guys as starters, one reserve that's near 20 MPG, and a fourth for spot duty. Maybe you can get away with a shorter rotation if you have a 3 that can play spot minutes at the 4, in case of fatigue or foul trouble or matching...

Good game. Bonus time for fans.

They just choked the entire game

PeterRamTime

FAU calls a timeout after cutting it to four

WTF are you doing lol

PeterRamTime

Realistically, unless Fuchs or Green is transferring, we probably only have minutes for one more big man. Foumena and Brown went from playing a combined 30 to 40 MPG before Green, to splitting 10 to 30 MPG after he was eligible. A guy that can play the 4 and 5 would be useful, with perhaps a big ma...

They are a weird team.

I have been surprised at some of the low scores some teams/games have put up in the first half’s so far in the tourney. Some long scoring droughts, too, in some games. I've seen 8 million missed lay ups so far Nerves? Tight rims? Defenses? A combo of all 3? I think a combo of all three yeah.

That D has been giving me flashbacks to that 22-2 deficit we had against us

I think if FAU gets in any rhythm offensively then NW is done.

PeterRamTime

NW has to have the most fundamentally sound defense in the country.

PeterRamTime

Bigs matter A LOT. See Oregon/NC State/Michigan St for example. Yep. Yeah small ball is preferred, but not necessarily at the 5. Used to have up to 3 bigs on the court at a time and now it's 1 or 2. Almost every single good team left in the tournament has a dude 6'10 or bigger, including NW and FAU...

Our 30-point blowout loss against St. Joe's and our two losses against Davidson are why we played Duke in 2018.. We were a 4-6 seed for most of the year. We could have avoided playing a 1-2 seed in the second round, but we lost those games, and the rest is history. Remains a mystery why the team wa...

All I know is that losing Hammond and keeping Ways is a terrible start. Rather lose both and get two new point guards. I would guess most, if not all, of the players in the portal are better than Ways. I have absolutely no idea why Archie would keep a player of his caliber. But maybe he'll get bett...

Anthony Grant is sometimes a terrible game coach Wtf were they doing? 16-0 run by Nevada to end the half. That may be the case (even though I do not agree) but what do you want him to do? He called a time out, brought back Holmes before the four minute time out that he was hoping to get to to give ...

Archie's success at Dayton was predicated on his recruiting a PG who turned out to be the catalyst for his NCAA tourney success. So far, that hasn't come close to happening here. Now if Hammond leaves, there goes his best recruit at the position since S. Smith according to him. Like has been said, ...

These are the games that still make the tournament great. Much of college basketball is ruined, but not the tourney. Great job making foul shots.
