I hope we can solve some of our issues this week in practice. Let's go Hoyas!

Not to mention if we want to have the ultimate post season sucess we have to learn to play in domes (twice actually if we get the Midwest bracket and have to play in Ford's Field for the regional) Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged "You are a disgrace to this school" - Alumn to me after airballing a free throw "Everything happens for a reason, and that reason is . . .

Which, of course means that they will play really, really well.

This game will be decided by the play of Summers and Freeman. At least one of these guys has to have a big night. SU's zone will make it hard to get the ball to Roy. I know JT3 will start Freeman at small forward, but that puts Summers on Dante Green and I don't think he can handle him down low.

BUT I don't mind if he's jacking up threes against your hoyas because he is more than due for a big game. Also, look for Paul Harris to have a monster game. He has taken his game to another level lately and has had fire in his eyes for the last two weeks or so on the court. BEWARE HOYAS!

They've learned to log onto the internet and produce complete sentences. They are much more advanced than we believed. This does not bode well for the future. I hope we beat em by 35 and silence the crowd early...but I fear this is going to be another ugly one that will just be a battle of attrition. Get them in foul trouble, then pull away against their reserves. Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged I am the Laird Hamilton of websurfing.

Last time, as we all know, Roy seemed to run out like a madman on every screen and we got burned repeatedly. When we stopped doing that, we let Jeremiah shut down Flynn. We have to do that same thing, and Roy can't do what he did against L'ville early on where he came out way too far. Outside of that all they got is contested 3's by Greene. I'll let him have his 15 if he's going to shoot 3-100 again.

Not to mention if we want to have the ultimate post season sucess we have to learn to play in domes (twice actually if we get the Midwest bracket and have to play in Ford's Field for the regional) I'm not really worried about the dome throwing off our shooters, mainly because our shooters are already off --we've only shot 40% from behind the arc 3 times so far in BE play--Rutgers, St. Johns and UConn. Who knows? Maybe their depth perception being off will actually help them make it! BTW-in our two BE losses, we shot under 20% from behind the arc. If we can avoid doing that, and we don't get 3 pointer happy against the 2-3, we should be fine.
