1/30 | Dayton | 4:00PM (CBSSN)

[PeterRamTime]

Let's see if we can keep it up...

Enjoy this but bracing for the slop..

Getting this lead up to 15 would be huge.

[Blue Man]

Things I like: Betrand’s stroke

Things I don’t like: Betrand’s neck beard

Who is this team!?!?

.......the MaGellans.......

[section(105)]

What's up with Fatts?

.......ankle, according to Steve.....

[Blue Man]

I think Cox has called a great game lineup wise so far. Pack-line D is also working very well.

I don’t like him throwing a clearly injured Fatts back on the floor after we were on a 13-5 run with him off it.
Give the man some rest.

[kmillr]

Carey out please!!

[URIFIJI]

Carey trying to do too much. Believe me - I think he was fouled but too much

[Roz]

Would like to see walker in there more

[Blue Man]

Yeah Carey has these spurts of awesome but then you can always count on a terrible turnover at a really bad time.

[KevanBoyles]

Holy moly only three turnovers with under three minutes left in the half. Must’ve switched up the Schizophrenia medication.

Riiiight after I posted this. Only up 2.

[eli#10]

Carey drives into traffic=turnover. Take a mid range jumper. Driving into two 6'10" defenders is a huge mistake.

[Blue Man]

Holy moly only three turnovers with under three minutes left in the half. Must’ve switched up the Schizophrenia medication.

Injured Fatts back into the lineup after we were on a run and the lead disappeared.

This is where I question Cox having a pulse on the game.

When it comes to Fatts, Cox has no pulse

[Rhody22]

I think we need Malik or DJ on Amzil

[Blue Man]

Ugh the lack of IQ on this team from its more senior guys is disturbing to say the least.

We took Ish out of the game with a 10 point lead...

[adam914]

Struggling without Makhel on the floor down the stretch. Overall pretty solid first half though all things considered.

[Rhody22]

Our lack of basketball smarts is mind boggling! If Shepard has a layup, take it. Once he dribbles under the basket you gotta take it all the way out. Lucky Crutchers basket didn’t count

[PeterRamTime]

A very sour 3 point lead at the half.

[URIFIJI]

Agreed - Shepherd please take the last shot of the half - instead of a turnaround baseline prayer. Look at the clock - IMO before we took that shot our boy Cox should have used his last time out

[Rhody15]

Has there been a smoother player in recent years than Sheppard?

EC before his injury comes to mind, but I can’t think of anyone else off the top of my head.

DAWAN ROBINSONH

Can’t argue that.

[Ram96]

So far so good. Playing much better than the last few games. Limited turnovers, and taking a lot of high percentage shots. They look like a different team.

[theblueram]

TO's. good focus. keep it up.

[KevanBoyles]

Nine assists and three turnovers at the half. Very good. Let’s see if we can put two halfs together.

[PeterRamTime]

Only 3 turnovers for us with Amzil and Tshimanga with 2 fouls each is a nice spot to be in.

Can’t argue that.

That was like 15 years ago already. Ugh.

[Urifan91]

I thought URI played well. Nice to be up by three at halftime but I have a feeling it’s going to be a tough second half.

[KevanBoyles]

Harris with 5 points and 2 assists. Maybe only playing a couple of minutes the other night woke him up.

[RhodyRams916]

If URI loses today it’s on Cox for playing an injured Fatts. They were doing so well until Fatts came back. Like seriously we DON’T need him out there today. He isn’t having an impact on the game.

.......isn’t Fatts that the stir that stirs the drink.......?

[ramster]

Things I like: 3/4 press. Jeremy sheppard. Ish off the bench early.

Things I don’t like: not running plays for Jeremy sheppard. Harris touching the ball.

Harris 1st half:
7 minutes relieving Mitchell
5 points on 2-3 FG
1 offensive rebound that he quickly fed to Russell for 3P assist
2 assists to tie Sheppard and Betrand for team high
0 turnovers
+/- was +7 with only 7 minutes played

Wow people really will trash talk Jermaine no matter what he does lol. I thought he looked great.

I just think Cox has no feel for the game.

Like he makes adjustments and game plans before the game and does nothing in-game. Time outs. Riding hot hands. It’s like he is just on autopilot. That’s what kills me.

Injured Fatts. Team up 10 and playing well. No one exhausted. Why would you force Fatts back on the floor?? Why wouldn’t you at least give him til the half to rest??

He absolutely did. I posted that after a missed layup, missed assignment, TO, and missed rebound.

He turned it around and looked much better in the remaining 6 mins he played.

[Blue Man]

The amount of jekyl/Hyde on this team is MADDENING.

[URI_05]

Bad start for Betrand

[Jersey77]

Don't like the way we came out the 2nd half, need to get it together.

All good! At least you’re not Rhody15 haha

[URI_05]

How the hell was that on Mitchell?

[JimSidd]

Good first half effort, for the most part. Good hustle and good battling on the boards. Some misses on easy putbacks, but the effort is there.
I’d like to see a bit less switching in the second half with Fatts and Mitchell. They’ve been put into bad situations a few times. Fatts needs someone to help out if he has a mismatch. They need to try and move Tsimanga away from the basket a bit. He got deep in the paint a few times.

[Urifan91]

I think the year Rhody has outrebounded most opponents but Dayton leading so far today. They are big!

[TrevlontRook3]

Over under 135? Yes? No? Thoughts?

[theblueram]

Betrand is off. Get Leggett in.

[Urifan91]

We need a TO

[theblueram]

Cox needs a time out

[eli#10]

How bout Walker and Martin make an appearance--please!
For a 1st team defensive player in Conference USA Martin has got to be better. Walker a step too slow.

[KevanBoyles]

Great time to go cold.

[Blue Man]

WOW. It took an ELEVEN-0 run of discombobulated shit to get a TO out of the half.

[URIFIJI]

Get BETRAND OUT - Ish Ish Ish
Get some shots to Shepherd or Mitchell
