Another mediocre bob Marlin team defense?
Stove should not be our leading scorer

Washington something like 1 of 9 from the floor. Can't have that. We missed way too many inside shots
Face it we choked. Only question is who gets fired next. Marlin or Hud??
Wouldn't say we choked. A win was a long shot. But the way we wilted was very disappointingQuote:

We had this in the bag. Couldn't finish.Quote:

I don't think playing one half of good basketball means you had anything in the bag. This game was very similar to the Georgia game last season. I'm going to be interested in seeing how they play in the tournament this month.Quote:

Although I wanted the win, I like what I saw. Definitely some positives to take away from this. We know what we have in Bryce. Could be a different game with the normal Bryce. Game was closer than the final indicated. I'm not worried about him in the least.
Looked like we were making it a game again after Russell nailed a three... to cut the lead to 6 - then got hit with the freshman stupid mistake technical... Never really threatened after that... Russell will be a difference maker, along with the transfers.
I'm excited! Going to be a good year!
Date night with the Mrs. What happened second half?Quote:

Just saw Georgia Southern won at Wake Forest last night, between them and UTA, the top of the Sunbelt will be stacked.
Georgia State also blew out Georgia State recently in a hurricane relief exhibition game. As far as the Cajuns go, inability to finish near the basket consistently has been a problem here for a decade and continued to be last night. Also, a problem from last year was a factor in the second half and that was stopping dribble penetration. Much of that came when the dribbler had help from a pick and the Cajuns seemed to struggle figuring out if a switch was supposed to occur or not. In addition to that, the defense did not force the dribbler to the left nearly often enough. Communication or lack thereof may have been a factor. Poor shooting is one thing which every team goes through for a stretch. You have to be solid on defense in order to stay in the game when that occurs and the Cajuns did not play nearly at the level needed to win a road game against quality competition. Officiating had little to do with those problems.Quote:
