Against Marquette we lost LJ to injury and had to go to . Today we lose Pryor to fouls and have to go to ? I know Ike was not looking good this year but who would you rather have coming off the bench?

Actually I'm missing Paul White more and I'm ticked off that Copeland, if he was going to quit on the team, didn't do it much earlier to better convince White there were going to be major minutes for him.

I know Ike was not looking good this year but who would you rather have coming off the bench? Yes, I would like to have had Ike and wished that Reggie had gotten a look too. Having Tre, Mulmore, Kaleb and Peak in there with the big of the moment, made it too easy for Xavier to play defense on Peak and dare the others to shoot from the perimeter.

I'd like to say I agree but his play was just not good too often. Kaleb was perfectly fine getting significant minutes given the fouls. And I frankly prefer Marcus getting most of the minutes at the four.

You all may kill me on this one but I'd like to see Mourning get some minutes at the PF position. His defense is soft but he puts up points and would save Derrickson and Agau down the stretch.

I would like to see Reggie get a few minutes. He came in against Syracuse, flashed to the foul line against the zone and quickly hit the 15-footer. We could have used more of that today, only saw it once, by LJ.
Reggie can hurt us on defense - but the same is true of most of our guys.

We still need consistency from someone other than Peak and Pryor, looking for that third and forth player. JT3 mentioned theses same sentiments in the post game interview.

We sure do. Jessie and Marcus have had their games, but not consistently. Hayes was better today. Not sure anyone else can break through consistently.

We couldn't stop Marquette or Xavier. Not sure what Copeland would have done about that, except maybe make it worse. I'm with MCI--I wish Paul White had stayed

I'm not sure any Big East team would miss the version of Isaac we saw this year.

I would like someone other than Pryor to act like they want to be out there! The rest of them are playing like, "Well, this is what I need to do to stay on scholarship."
Play like you wanna, not like you gotta...

Play like you wanna, not like you gotta... I strongly disagree. I do think they put in a lot of effort today. It just wasn't good enough.

The rest of the guys are pretty much role players. The effort is there. Guys are trying their best.

Although Govan and Derrickson were ranked too highly to be satisfied with being "role players". That's why I started this thread. Yes, Cope was terrible this year but he has shown more in the past than Jesse or Derickson ever will I just keep remembering that Marquette game last year where he was awesome. I can't see either of them scoring 32 points in a BE game this year.

True - but they were both better than Cope this year.

True - but they were both better than Cope this year. But the year was young. I will really be interested to see how Cope does in the future. I've never been a JT3 basher but if Cope turns up big in 2 years I might be having second thoughts.

Hey Ike had a solid frosh year. He regressed last year but had a handful of good games. He had potential, but it wasn't working here.
A fresh start could help him. Will be interesting to see.

Hayes has also regressed this year. I feel like Agau has disappeared all of a sudden. We need an assertive front line. It can't be P+P all the time.
