Archie likely lost this game for us. Just a horrible performance.

Jesus fucking Christ. A layup. A god damn layup.
And carey needs to be better. A step back long 2 with 12 seconds left wasn’t the shot.

Then Archie doesn’t call a timeout instantly.
He SUCKED today.
Did not make once good decision all day.
Absolutely pathetic.

The unconventional lineup he put in got us back in the game. So that’s 1 thing.
Not fouling inside 5 seconds up 3 is just bad strategy.

Carey was the best player for us this game .
He makes those step backs consistently.
This is ALL on Archie today.
Played Rory too long. Didn’t play Weston enough. Played Thomas in critical moments which literally cost us the game.
This is on nobody but Archie today.

I still stand by the fact that we’ll be winning these games in March.
But the talent upgrades will be needed in the years to come.
I get why Bassy is necessary- but I’d love someone to ask Archie why he plays so much.
Weston looked like our best or second best player today, the team looked much more connected with him on the floor.
That sucked.

He Obviously means you foul a player dribbling to make them shoot two shots.
Nobody wants to foul a 3 point shooter up 3.

I will be a lot happier when the talent level is far better down the road...good players make the coach look good....that will be the challenge going forward...remember when Hurley kept losing close games here...it all changed when when he brought in better players..Archie will do it but its sure frustrating to have to endure this right now.

Freeman could have made Archie look a whole lot better if he was in the game for a Thomas at the end.

Love that he wanted to be a URI ram, so did I. But I suck so I found a place in the stands.
That said, to make the Archie defense. He’s trying to coach these guys for Brooklyn so they’re playing the right way.
Dave Cox was a “play through it” guy. Archie is a “come off the floor and let’s coach you” guy. I like that guy better.
Doesn’t make this any less painful.
The only thing I can think of that pretends to make sense is that he doesn’t care about Bassy’s mistakes as much as he does Bray or Weston or the guys were going to need in the tournament. So he’ll let Bassy screw up on the floor to teach the guys who he knows he’ll need.
Idk. Lot of mental gymnastics. Im going to go throw up now.
This is what living through a rebuild is like.

Re: 1/7 | La Salle | 2:00PM (ESPN+)
The fing sad part is we did foul, on a three point shot. This loss is ridiculous, Thomas makes alot of stupid plays but I am telling you, I am not feeling Archie in any serious way. Against Fordham the out of bounds plays were awful, throwing the ball into the left corner three straight times to get instantly doubled is what made that game close. Absolutely no creativity at all on the out of bounds plays. We all know the corner is where the defense wants the ball to go. Not playing your best players, because why I have no idea. This guy failed at Indiana, lets call it what it is. He won at Dayton like everyone does. I wish I had the same confidence that some others have that he will get us back to the top of the A10. But that may not matter anyway the way the A10 is trending. Will be a one bid league this year and there are 15 teams in the league. I have jumped to the dark side. This game sucked and now I am joining in with the negativity. We blow so many games that we should win. At some point in time, you have to look at the coaching. Players play with no confidence, have no idea what their roles are, why is Ish not playing down the stretch of these games? He was out today in the last minute, out the last four minutes of the Fordham game and came back in with like 30 seconds left. It is mind boggling and frustrating as hell. We are not good, but neither is Lasalle and this is a game we should have won.bigappleram wrote: ↑1 year ago The unconventional lineup he put in got us back in the game. So that’s 1 thing.

We already have two recruits for next season.
There’s 4 kids left in the 24/7 Top 100.
Since that’s all you care about, next season is a failure if those kids go elsewhere right?
Transfers don’t count, you only care about Top 100 kids, so if we don’t land one of those kids from prep schools in FL and AZ, next season is a wash? Not gonna watch?
