His failue to be able to shoot free thows is more about emotion than ability. In other words he has not translated that from the practice floor to the game floor and that is concerning because free throwing ability is not about experience it is about ability and self control. His lack of scoring in other areas is also very troubling. He should be able to sink an open 12 footer and he should be able to dribble penetrate and pass, shoot, or go to the basket. So far I see only going to the basket which reduces his ability there, as well as with assits because they are not going to honor those other things as much without some sort of scoring ability.
    I saw somethg in the game last night that was easy for me to spot. I haven't heard anyone else bring it up, but it is having a huge effect on the Cajuns offense. I believe it is causing them not to be able to make good shots & I know it's causing a ton of their TOs. This isn't Peyton's fault, but it's making him & the rest of the team look bad.

    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.

    As for feeling comfortable, I'll stick with my opinion - based on years of covering and watching basketball as well as input from experienced college and pro coaches and scouts - over your thoughts on the matter. And if I'm right about Payton, you won't see me on here beating my chest hoping people will pat me on the back. Thanks!
    That's fine & I welcome your rebuttals. But to say I am too closed minded to admit when I have made a poor evaluation is ludicrous & undermines your own credibility. I have proof in what I have reported on the difference in the level of play by Broadway. I also admitted to doubting that Carter could produce at this
    Level to the extent he has shown me he will. I did this even though I never posted anything to the contrary. Now I am posting on what are becoming very solids observations.

    Now I will ask you. Is Elfrid left handed?

    Wow...how stupid of Coach. Thank God you were sitting there in the stands.

    The Cajuns couldn't make a catch-and-shoot jumper this season because they didn't have anybody who could consistently hit a jumper period. Most of the rest of what you wrote is gibberish.

    All he writes is gibberish. He has admitted before last night game he only saw them play twice. A lot of people may disagree with me but I think this is going to be good team next year and possibly a great team the year after. I am excited about the next 3 years.

    I asked a simple question & made observations based on what I believe to be fact. If the X & O talk is that far above your mental threshhold then maybe you would be better served to remain silent & allow those who understand something about the goings on of the game opined. Or did you not realize after watching Peyton all year that he is most likely left handed?

    Then how could they do it last year? Why is this team some 12% lower @ the line this season? Just saying it's a mental thing without identifying a root cause is a cop out for losers. Those who call these reasonable questions, thoughts, or observations jibberish need to check the validity of their own thoughts, as well as the process they use for gathering them.

    No, no...on the contrary. You solved everything. Just wish that Coach could have had you at those first couple of practices in October. You'd have spotted the problem...told Coach what to do to fix it...and 22 or so wins later, we'd all be sipping champagne (except me, of course...I don't drink...but I digress).

    Brad or Mike or anyone else close to Coach...please get a note to him that...1) the offense problem is fixed...and 2) bandwagonjumper MUST be at that first practice in October. Get the details worked out.

    Done!


    PS...wagonguy...remember not to leave town in late spring. We will need you for flood season.

    I thought your observation was interesting (very) but it led me to the conclusion . . . the guy will be a superstar.

    If EP did what he did as a freshman playing, shooting, dribbling with the wrong hand, I can't wait to see what the future has in store for this ambidextrous athlete.

    Saying he's dribbling with the wrong hand is like saying Steve Young throws with the wrong hand. But anyone who watched the 49ers during the Montana era & saw how they ran their offense. Then saw the way they had to flip their areas of attack & their rout tree understands what I' m talking about. If you don't it's a coaching thing.

    So I guess this means I won't get my answer whether the kid leans to the left or not.
