Stalcup did play well in his minutes today...impressed defensively

Stalcup did play well in his minutes today...impressed defensively

Although his block was great, it was there because he was beat very bad on defense and was able to recover. He isn't very quick at all

[California Cajun]

These Cajun uniforms, oooh.

[LaCajunsFan]

These Cajun uniforms, oooh.

Yeah, really, easily our ugliest uniforms imho. I'm alright with black being an accent color, but when did grey qualify to be the entire color of our uniforms? And the fonts were to small to read, and way too busy.

Yes the block was sweet but he had completely lost track of his man and allowed him to get the pass wide open under the basket.
The zone gave us fits for a while on offensive, we took some bad shots and made some bad passes. This team makes up for that on defense. ULM was not hitting the offensive boards at all, they all dropped back as soon as the shot went up. Good win. GEAUX CAJUNS

[ragin50]

Didn't like the unis either. And we still don't wear the ones with Louisiana on the front even though ULM seems to have accepted it. ???

When the Cajuns do not create aggressive defensive turnovers they do not do well offensively because we are not a good half court offensive team. We might be no better than low average. Tonight we did not have that good turnover ratio.

Observations not criticisms. Hardy had to hit those shots because he was schooled twice by number 23. His burst was not equal to Hardy's but he kept up for a while.

Brown was also having trouble with 23 as he dribble penetrated forcing Brown to fall back. At that point in the second half he simply did a fade away ten footer twice in a row.

In both cases Marlin had to bring in a better defensive player, or should I say a more seasoned one.

Miller? You can almost tell when he is going to shoot whether the shot is good or not. Man is good so you got to take the good with the bad.

Stalcup and Plaisance? Thinking we got a little more from Stalcup than we would have with Plaisance, but man we need to put some kind of weight room work for that guy. He is heavier than he looks.

Never had a serious doubt about the game, but anytime a team takes a lead or is within one possession of taking a lead you get a little uncomfortable. Next year Marlin needs to find a coach who knows how to run a half court offense.

[MetryCajun]

We are a top 20 offense. Yes, we score more when we create turnovers, but I would not call our half court offense below average. The stats do not bear that out.

Stats, smats.

Hardy is a serious upgrade from our go to 3 guy from last year. Yes, he had some defensive lapse, but at least he tried playing defense. And he can MAKE the three.

Hardy is shooting 56% from the three, which is insane and good for 3rd in the country. Also, Bryce is the third leading RPG guy in the country.

No joke. We waited for three years for Register to be that guy. Hardy has been exactly what we have been needing off the bench.
