Re: 1/13|George Mason Patriots|5:30PM (NBCSN)
If Fatts is a poor shooter, can he become a good one? We do have coaches that might be able to find faults to help him improve. I hope we just don't tell him to go out and "shoot your way out of the slump" or is Fatts too stubborn to listen. Ram rooters are anxious to know.

Have not posted in awhile. The warm ups are an absolute embarrassment. We don't need a dunking contest. What happens if someone gets hurt. How does Coach explain that. It should stop now. I'm really old school. Get some more balls out there and practice the shots you would take during the game. Too ...
