I want to see our win/loss based on who is our primary ball handler. JD is our point guard and should not be playing the 2. Again.

How many times have we closed out the shot clock and lost the ball or had three points dropped against us at the end. My unofficial count is at three.

I thought they might bond this year, but the team can’t shoot. It isn’t going to get better. This team probably isn’t making the tourney again for awhile unless they win the a-10 tourney

Fatts Russell right now is that guy you don’t want on your team at the ymca sat am pick up game.

I don’t mean this to be too negative but it absolutely blows my mind is allowed to take this many shots. And horrible shots. It’s one thing to shoot 25%. It’s another to still take 25 shots a game off the first pass.

Give those shots to dowtin and go inside and out to Harris and langevine. I don’t even understand how these other players are ok with this.


Very winnable game. Cyril and dowtin are monsters. Harris coming along. The record could easily be so much. Better.

I have to say I totally disagree with Cox giving the ball primary to Fatts. Jeff is 10X the pg he is.

Gave up 40 points in the paint. They had 21 layups. We had 34 and 15. We dared them to beat us in the paint and they did.

Can't let the kid run the point get to the 3pt line and heave a clunker. Unacceptable.

Starting to look quite a bit like a "plenty of good seats available" season.
Rebuilding or not, you can't be giving these games away, like they did 2 of 3 here...although, maybe that's what rebuilding is.

I don’t understand why this is even a thing. Jeff wins us games at the point. Most obvious piece to the puzzle.

These guys need one or two of those “players only meetings” that the Celtics had to iron this out. Fatts’ play is a problem.

Everyone is adjusting- new team, new coach, new staff, new players, new system. We knew this wasnt going to be a top 25 team. I know we are a little spoiled after the last two years but lets give this team a chance and be patient. We will be very good in 1-2 years. We are losing Ryan Preston & Will Leviton. I know we want better results and theres some games we should be winning but lets not get so hard on everyone. The only person who should be really be shouldering a lot of blame for his decisions is Fatts and in my opinion he wont even be here next year and is going to to transfer and i dont think he'll be that big of a loss so its best to try and keep the rest of the gang happy. Freshman in particular. Merry Christmas!

Maybe they had Dowtin not on the ball so much because he's the only real scoring threat they have right now?
Weird stat line for him today...17 pts, 2 assists, 3 TOs...

As awesome as the flight out there was, fresh off the WV win, the flight back will have to suck big time.
Lotta people that considered it...probably glad they didn't make the trip.

Where's ECR? We need some levity around these parts...
