Fordham Game Thread

lhsgolf19 · #1 01-23-2022, 01:38 PM

Another Tough 1 point conference loss for the guys... Must Make Shots... Time to get some revenge after last year's debacle at Rose Hill. This is not your normal Rams Squad, they play hard and are improved under 1st year coach Kyle Neptune.

Game is on Tuesday Night at 7 PM and will be shown on Spectrum News 1/ESPN+.

Potential Starting Lineup:
G 21 Josh Colon-Navarro 5’10” 170 GS Carolina, Puerto Rico
G 3 Darius Quisenberry 6’2” 188 GS Springfield, OH
G 10 Kyle Rose 6’4” 192 JR Upper Marlboro, MD
G 24 Antrell Charlton 6’5” 205 SO Live Oak, FL
F 30 Abdou Tsimbila 6’9” 245 SO Yaounde, Cameroon

Yes I didn't include their stud big man Chuba Ohams (13.8 PPG 11.4 RPG 2.1 BPG), he missed yesterday's game (and is day to day) with a Knee Injury... Quisenberry is their guy, team leading 17.9 PPG & he went for 36 yesterday in 40 minutes against Davidson.

Boys need to move the ball better, last night was a little too much 1 on 1.

The 1st of a couple home games in a row before a tough two game road trip to VCU and SLU... So Gotta Get the Job done... Go UD!

Ohams officially out for Fordham

Mack and Louisville parting ways, surprise, surprise...

4-0 UD at the 1st TV timeout

CT Flyer · #8 01-25-2022, 07:11 PM

Announcers have no idea they just called a foul on that 3.

TommyGola · #9 01-25-2022, 07:11 PM

Blakney is lost on the court. He does not move at all.

CT Flyer · #10 01-25-2022, 07:12 PM

Why do we keep feeding Camara, he is not the most gifted offensive player. His points need to come off of rebounds, run outs and wide open drop downs.

maddog07 · #11 01-25-2022, 07:12 PM

Looks like Mali over compensating for GM, not looking to drive or shoot yet. Everything is going inside so far.

He's a really good passer out of the paint

TommyGola · #13 01-25-2022, 07:16 PM

Five turnovers in six minutes...wow!

TommyGola · #14 01-25-2022, 07:18 PM

Get Blakney our of there.

Great start/bounce back for Mali

Watch Blakney on defense the last 4 minutes since they switched him to guard Quisenberry. Almost looks as good as Kyle Davis. Keep up the hard work R.J.

lhsgolf19 · #18 01-25-2022, 07:32 PM

Good run here... 23-9 with 8 to go

TommyGola · #19 01-25-2022, 07:32 PM

Good ball movement. Sissoko always plays hard.

maddog07 · #20 01-25-2022, 07:32 PM

Camara is playing great d out on their point guard. His length is telling.

For a few possessions right there we looked like a bitty basketball team.

11 turnovers. There is not an ounce of concern about ball security.

maddog07 · #25 01-25-2022, 07:43 PM

Fordham is terrible and we’re playing down to their level.

Jekyll and Hyde dayton basketball- Dayton “should” be up by 18.Instead due to moronic play, up by 4

TommyGola · #28 01-25-2022, 07:50 PM

Blakney comes to life!!!

lhsgolf19 · #29 01-25-2022, 07:50 PM

Good 10-2 Finish to the Half

37-25 at the break

ClaytonFlyerFan · #30 01-25-2022, 07:50 PM

In addition to his lock down D on Quisenberry, Blakney with 8 points 4 rebounds and 2 blocked shots in the first half. Only 1 turnover.

maddog07 · #31 01-25-2022, 07:52 PM

Mali got a lot of bench. Wonder if he’s not giving AG what he wants.

udx2 · #33 01-25-2022, 07:53 PM

Good run to finish the half. Nice lead despite the turnovers. Frankly, I am glad to see Fordham, which had a lease on the cellar of the A10, playing better.

Wonder if he wishes he had stayed at Xavier? He didn't even get 4 full years at Louisville. It's tough out there, win big right away, or you get fired.

Flyerferd · #35 01-25-2022, 07:54 PM

Blakney is making me feel a lot better about the end of that first half!

I thought he looked pretty good on the offensive side. Defensively, he got caught napping a few times.

ClaytonFlyerFan · #38 01-25-2022, 08:24 PM

Smith has to be either sick or tired. Every shot and several passes have come up short. Quick recovery please before Friday

lhsgolf19 · #39 01-25-2022, 08:24 PM

47-34 with 11:55 left

Gotta take care of the ball... too many careless TOs

jack72 · #40 01-25-2022, 08:26 PM

Mali pressing with no success. They are just backing off him and daring him to shoot.

37-19 in rebounds. But FU has 5 more shots. They are missing their big man and we are at home. And FU is still in this

Why does Brea think he can dribble against the press. That was pitiful.

This year’s Fordham is improved and lost to Davidson by 3 this past week. Hanging tough but we are in control.

jack72 · #50 01-25-2022, 08:48 PM

Mali without an assist. 17 turnovers, back to our bad habits.

Glad Grant is saving those three timeouts he has left to carry over to Friday night.

Out prevent offense is looking good… yech!8

Fordham throwing in some tough threes. Now at 40%. You can see how they almost beat Davidson.

Fordham D was solid, but our O needs improvement. Better motion. More decisiveness. More solid screens. Sharper cuts. They can do it. But they need to do it more consistently.

Problem is this is rarely seen per your description with an AG offense. Absolutely need to make the defense chase you more. Thought they got the ball into the post more last night which is a good thing but that ball has to be kicked back out some when the D collapses especially with Camara missing so many short shots. Just way too much standing around in an AG offense.
