Hard for the 8 guys playing now to be as athletic as in the past when Gant is not on the team. However, when you bring in all the guys that are out now, from an overall basis this group is actually more athletic than last season. However Smith may be the only one to come back soon so your concerns are valid. When Smith does come back we will be better than last year from a rebounding standpoint Shooting wise, Russell and Johnson appear to be the only two that are consistent from the perimeter. However, recall that Temple, Lafayette, and Julien all hit big ones late in the first half to help fuel a comeback which is encouraging. I do expect the staff will catch more heat if improvement does not occur and I think it will be incremental at best as long as we have only these eight guys. What the team looks like by the time conference play starts may be a lot different than what we ran out there tonight however.
Our defense in the first half was excellent, not so much in the second half. Wonder if having only eight guys had anything to do with that . We did force 22 turnovers which is indicative of effective defense. The two big turnovers we had at the end were a major factor in points allowed. Have to get better all the way around to have a chance at TCU.
Let’s get something straight? Define hater! I doubt anyone hates Big Fish. Recognizing that he is a very limited coach, that almost always fails to deliver the hype isn’t hating, it’s being honest. I doubt anybody wants Marlin to ever lose another game as Cajuns basketball coach. But he’s probably going to lose way too many. That’s not hating.
This team as it is now stands definitely lacks experience. Some talented pieces that I think will take time to mesh and be consistent. I was impressed with #34 Dou Gueye. Big and athletic for his size, the kind of player that is needed to suceed at this level. I’d say an average sbc team as of now with above average talent that will only get better with experience. From what i’ve seen so far I predict we will be 5-5 heading into our conference play opener against Ark. St.
I think perimeter shooting will be an issue for a while with this team. I haven't seen a guard, besides Ced, who can consistently hit anything. I always liked PJ, and I'm curious as to what happened to cause the indefinite suspension.
Not to make excuses for coach but with only 8 people, you cant do your typical 5v5 practices.
Also heard they are looking at adding a walk on at the start of the new semester
