This team is not very good without Govan on the floor.
Greg should've made the smart play there and not the flashy one. That is 2 bad TOs for him.

Trey Mourning makes Pascal Fleury look like Bill Russell.

Noticeable drop off once Akinjo left the floor

This is where the loss of Derrickson and the double secret probation on Pickett really hurts this team. There is no #2 option behind Govan.

Mourning has been ineffective today. Why does McClung have such a long leash? The kid still playing like the lead dog in high school.

So per our league members we had 2/5 of the best freshman last year in Pickett and Blair. One is in a suit and one can’t get on the court.

Nice recovery by Mourning. He has to play within himself and not force shots.
Let's some some more zone d

We badly need a strong win. It's hard to see us making the tourney without a win today. Our realistic chances of making the NCAA tournament went out the window when Marcus Derrickson decided to turn pro last spring. As sad as it is to admit, this team's ceiling is the NIT. And if we continue to play poor defense and be loose with the basketball and turn the ball over 15 or more times a game like we have for the first month, we may miss the NIT for the 4th consecutive season. This program is still in the stages of a rebuild. When you don't have more talent than your opponents, you need great discipline to win.

I give Greg credit all year. He's been awful today. We are lucky to be down 5. That was a ugly half of basketball by us and they were hot from 3.

Everyone can have a bad moment.
Half time, let's see if Coach makes the necessary adjustments at half-time.
Not having Pickett throws off the substitutions.

We've got to figure out how to defend the 3 better. At this point we win or lose depending if the other team can sink open shots.

I agree w everything said here for the most part but you can't tell me we dont have as much talent as SMU. Besides Cuse every team we have played so far we have equal talent if not better...

Team playing without energy, The “crowd” is completely out of it. Govan off the floor, Malinowski playing poorly, Blair needs to stay in for McClung and we need more scoring from inside. Only bright spot has been the play of Akinjo. This team needs Pickett. It’s a shame that this is happening because Akinjo is playing so well and distributing the ball.

We really have to find a way to stop these big runs. It’s tough to win when you have to overcome spotting your opponent 15 pts over a few minute burst.
