Peyton appears to me to be a south paw. Yet Marlin has the offense rotating in a couterclock wise fashion. This is giving the trailers on defense inside out leverage on the guys he is attempting to get the ball to in the majority of their half court sets. This was the direct cause of at least half their TOs last night. I also believe it is a root cause for why none of these guys can make a set up jumper off a pass with any consistency. So to say that Peyton & anyone else will be successful in this scheme as this offense is at the present won't happen. It can be remedied, but the half court rotation they are using now will not work. If I can see it I guarantee any D-1 coach worth his salt can see it & attack it.

The..."I saw something no one else did" thing was so funny, I had to go back and read it again. Some things just get better with time.

This one is another gem. Just too funny.

Chill out with the personal attacks.

I don't know Bandwagon but I'm willing to bet he is a good guy. I think he has created such a character from the radio shows that he feels the need he HAS to be that same character on here. Kind of like Texas Mike, he will never be able to call in and have a normal conversation.

No its real

Bandwagon does not realize how badly he belittles people on this board and in conversation.

Then when the people who get belittled by him fight back he gets his panties all wadded up.

Its pathetic.

Its ok to have an opinion thats different then everyone else. Thats not the problem

But quit acting like your OPINION is fact. And if anyone disagrees with your OPINION they are idiots.

If you want to think EP is left handed and this is the problem with the Cajuns basketball team that fine.
But when people disagree with your opinion that he's lefthanded and thats not the problem with the basketball team then you get in a rage. Belittling Parrot as not know nothing, belittling the guy who owns the tool shop saying he cant make a good tool.
It goes on and on.

If people do not agree with BWK they are idiots.

Its very childish.

If you would have just said I think the problem may be EP is lefthanded and left it at that nobody would have had a problem.

Maybe they would have disagreed but not had a problem.

But no you have to make everything personal and life and death.

And dont get mad when someone proves you wrong on something.

If you want people to worship your ___ when you get something right.

You better be prepared to take flack when you get something wrong.

Of course you are right and the entire rest of the world and this forum is wrong.

Pitching? Batting? You're dead wrong. You were also wrong about Blaine. He and the receiving corps tightened up after getting massive reps together. Blaine settled down and the WRs got used to his ball, just as many pointed out was necessary. To add to that, it makes a difference when a QB is a righty or lefty as to his roll out and throw side. Some guys can't even complete a pass rolling from the opposite side. If you played ball growing up, were you a "skill player" by any chance? You act like you know everything about throwing and shooting. I just have to ask... are you a great ball thrower? Baseball or football? Are you a great batter?

I'm sorry guys. Clearly you are correct & I'm a total buffoon. So what time do we play next week? I had the hallucination we lost, but you have now made me realize we won & I' m just too thick in the skull tI have seen it.

Obviously the Rice players & coaches saw it, because there was a stretch in the second half that until that point In the game, even with our poor perimeter shooting, it was still anyone's game, as in a two point contest. Then came a stretch with double digit TOs by our guys & a physically inferior BB team pulled out to a double digit lead. UL was clearly in the game until that point & clearly out of the game once that stretch occurred. But thanks to you guys, I now know that's definitely NOT what happened.

If we are still discussing your observation, I thought you were talking about turnovers.

Free throw and overall shooting cost UL the game, not turnovers. The ball rotation UL had created open looks, they just couldn't knock them down.

I think UL was below their seasonaverage on turnovers, i'll have to check when I get in front of a pc.

That's a great idea Turbine. While you're at it, would it be possible to break down first half TOs & shooting per centage Vs. 2nd half TOs & shooting per centage? TIA.

Disagree with Kyle= Losing basketball game the other night
Agree with Kyle= Winning sunbelt conference and going to NCAA tourney


What in the hell does winning or losing a basketball game the other night have to do with agreeing or disagreeing with whats wrong with the basketball team.

Said the man who played with his computer in Baton Rouge instead of going to the game. BTW, how many games did you make this season? I didn't get an answer out of Josh. Maybe I'll have better luck with you. It seems the only one here who is required to attend at LEAST one more than he has is me.
