Add in Brea. He’s been getting minutes- hasn’t scored since .. July.

Why don’t we put Weaver in and give him some reps. Ibi is not giving us much.

T-Bone 84 · #**106** 01-23-2021, 06:05 PM

Great offensive possession, guys. Pi$$ away 26 seconds, and then have Crutcher fire-up a 30-footer.

And then, Ibi fires up a 3. Great leadership, Seniors!

Smitty10 · #**107** 01-23-2021, 06:05 PM

are we going to break 30?

Weaver with the Linda Ronstadt defense.

Weaver gets our first 3 of the game with 7 minutes to go.

Flyer1995 · #**111** 01-23-2021, 06:13 PM

Glad to see we broke 30

4 Frosh and a transfer.

Really only watching to see if Luke gets his first basket.

Swampy Meadows · #**118** 01-23-2021, 06:20 PM

Pete Gillin can retire the “No bones about it” BS for the rest of the game.

If we could've kept all the other Rams from scoring besides Bones, we'd be winning this game.

T-Bone 84 · #**120** 01-23-2021, 06:20 PM

Trapping in the half court? With a 27 point lead? Remember that, Flyers.

They did take Bones out, but that might have been because he got clocked on a pick at midcourt that last time down.

Good thing this season doesn't cost towards the last 5 years record!

Jeff · #**123** 01-23-2021, 06:23 PM

Ibi a total no show. Two slop hoops down 25+

frisco flyer · #**124** 01-23-2021, 06:25 PM

Luke showed more hustle in two minutes than the rest of the team combined in 38 minutes

Let 'em. This team deserves to be embarrassed. You don't want to get embarrassed, that's on you, not your opponent.

It would of been disappointing if
you did NOT have a smart mouth comment..

Agree, but has a TON of work on the defensive side ahead of him. Now we know.

T-Bone 84 · #**128** 01-23-2021, 06:27 PM

I wanna see Mou plant a few guys (legally) in these last 90 seconds.

Yes, and he needs to double his weight too, but at least he tried and did not play intimidated like all the rest of the team.

Listen, I've been civil. Different opinions are not wrong, simply different. I think we both want the same results. I think my assessment was fair and a little realistic. I get your opinion. But it's nothing more than just that.

Get over it.

The fall from Grace is troubling. Better get 2 or 3 really good transfers..Weaver is not a pt Guard and we need front court help in a big way. The Fordham game was no fluke.

Wow, that was absolutely abysmal. Looked like a Jim O team today.

We're through the easy part of our schedule, and we still have nothing. Not good!

Alberto Strasse · #**137** 01-23-2021, 06:33 PM

Take Crutcher and Watson out of the game with "D" and let Dayton try to beat us with Jordan Chimichanga. UD apparently did not have a game plan or an idea that surfaced from the coaching staff the entire game.

you get over it....
you had to respond to me,
with a smart comment, that is
not civil, that is kind of rude...

I get your opinion also..
are we done, or not?

T-Bone 84 · #**139** 01-23-2021, 06:35 PM

They should be forced to watch the replay of this game...twice. And, as they do, focus on the hustle and determination exhibited by their opponent. I don’t believe that, top-to-bottom, VCU has that much more talent than us. They just wanted it a he!!uva lot more, for all 40 minutes.

Can't make 3s and get 75 percent of your inside shots rejected, how would you have coached out of that?

The ball movement was atrocious, so maybe that was the key to getting better shots and keeping their defensive timing off. Other than that, we looked totally overmatched.

Nothing they could have done today, but if a guy can’t jump, he needs to learn how to finish inside through contact. Lots of guys “back in my day” could do it. Moses Malone. Mark Aguirre. Adrian Dantley. Even our own Roosevelt Chapman (though Velvet did have some hops). Don’t try to go through the defender - get him on your hip, and make him reach. Easier said than done, I know, but that’s 1 suggestion.

the ball movement was horrible,
game was over by halftime..

frisco flyer · #**144** 01-23-2021, 06:47 PM

I think our options are very limited if you shut down Crutcher and Ibi. We will get better, but this was fugly.

steverino015 · #**145** 01-23-2021, 06:52 PM

it truly was... Jalen can break teams
down with his dribble/drive but today
VCU did a good job of staying in front
of Crutcher and Ibi...

At that point, the game was kind of like “Whose Line Is It, Anyway?” (where the points don’t matter), but I’ll still consider that as reason for hope for the future.
