First half observations...

- Rock fight. Just as we thought it would be (but not this bad). I’d like to believe that we can’t shoot it any worse than we did in the first half but the St. Joe’s senior night showed me that anything’s possible. Let’s hope the shots start falling or we’re in trouble.

- Fouling them seems like a better prospect than allowing high percentage dunks and layups. Only problem with that strategy is we’ll run out of players.

- In a game like this you HAVE to hit free throws and we’re shooting it at about 50%.

- Fatts is pressing so hard. Trying to shoot his way out of it. I don’t know what the answer is. He’ll either fire up a 3 or wildly drive and look for contact. A high school coach would say “get it back on the defensive end” and I have to give Fatts and our boys credit there for keeping Rhody in an ugly game.

- More Toppin, less Harris, please.

- We have to start hitting wide open 3’s. Holy shit.

Strong 2nd half where we outscore them 35-20 and win by 8. Please!

I like that we havent used up a lot of fouls going into the second half.

Use them.

Jermaine should use all five.

First let's figure out how to play basketball on the offensive end a little bit.

We shot 27 % and 1-11 from 3 so we need to make some shots

Jefe only played 13 minutes that foot must be bothering him

Jefe clearly compromised physically. If he was even 80% he'd be playing every minute of this one.

Cyril fighting. Fatts will put together a run.

I'm actually optimistic about the 2nd half. Call me stupid.

I have no problem with them losing and trying but they are laying down and taking it. From a bigger picture I think its hard when you expect to be a strong NIT to start the season move up to NCAA status and then fall back to NIT status

When you catch the ball underneath the basket...

IMMEDIATELY GO UP WITH IT!!!

That is some rec league/CYO stuff. If you keep pump faking or pivoting, usually bad things will happen.

I think we've had at least 4 blocks that fell right into Saint Louis hands for easy layups.
