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.

1-11 from 3
27% overall
50% FT

It has to get better

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.

Down 7, season the line.

This half will be different.

Russell meter at 5

Cl nails 2

Jesus. Somehow they look worse.

Down 14. Harris is the WORST shooter from 5 feet I've ever seen.

This team looks helpless out there right now

We suck

Even with all the faith I have in these boys, I think I’ve lost 90% of it. I’ve got nothing. Worst part is, STL isn’t good.

We cut it to 5 then go on a 9-0 run so pathetic

Oh my god this is utterly fucking despicable


How is this fucking possible right now?

No way we win.

Gonna lose to Dayton by 30.

UMass is going to rip our hearts out.

Thanks for getting us to the dance Dan!

God knows when we will be back.

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.

Yup -- keep fighting through those picks. It's not like they can make all those open shots.

How were we ever good this year?

Can definitely comeback, but as of now we are dead.

This team is dead. Bah.

1 bid league.

Somewhere CFL is thinking, "I'm off the hook! From now on they'll call it a Coxian collapse!"

Where the fuck is the foul!?!?

How can Fatts get ZERO calls when he drives in???

We should just run a zone! We are giving up way too many easy baskets!

Thirty-five points in 30 minutes??????????

amazing play by martin

great recovery by Jeff

Even in adversity, these boys continue to fight.

The momentum is shifting a little here, have to take advantage of it immediately.

Just like that it’s back to 10

And poof...just like that...its gone!

FUCKING FOUL GOODWIN

We need to start hacking their asses!

Come ON

St louis is good

The fight is encouraging, but moral victories don't do shit at this point of the year. Need to keep pushing and get over the hump. Just get a GD stop.

For 2 seconds we were within 4 with crowd getting loud.....

Put Harris in and use his fouls on French. Immediately, literally put the walk ins in and foul the kid. please

Signs of life for URI !!!

Need Fatts to get hot

Just tough to watch. grind out 8 tough points to get within a few only to drop back out to 10. Big shot by Long, clutch to stop the bleeding

Our guys won’t quit though

This is like those baron coached teams that were worn out and had nothing g left for the stretch run....oh well hope for the auto bid

We REFUSE to foul Goodwin!!!!!!

Jesus fucking fuck this game.

How do we get it down to 4 and to 5 on separate occasions and PISS IT AWAY while refusing to put the worst free throw shooting team in basketball on the line????

Insane that they aren’t fouling the bad shooters. Seriously, do we even want to win?

Foul the big men.

I'm losing my voice over it.

I was thinking the same thing. It sure doesn't look like it. I hope that changes.

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