Either don’t foul or crush the guy. Don’t do what Mourning did.

harvard has as many offensive rebounds as we do total rebounds.

Wish McClung would just take it to the hoop. Would hit it or get fouled

A less than stellar half.

Tough assignment for these announcers - they don't seem to know much about either team, much less calling the building "Alumni Gymnasium".

Just dropped into to say that effort on defense when 44 of Harvard drove from the top by Jessie was the worst of his career. 2 fouls or not Shouldn’t Josh have stepped in with some help? The best defensive teams defend as a team...

Harvard has 12 baskets this half. Ten are layups. They also have eight offensive rebounds. Those statistics don't speak well for our interior defense. I would say that we are lucky that Harvard is shooting 3's so poorly, but we aren't any better. The only positive thing I see is that we only have 2 turnovers (remarkable for us), while Harvard has 10. I doubt that we will duplicate that in the second half. Another worrisome point is that Aiken has only taken 4 shots (6 if you include the two times he was fouled). He might just take over in the second half.

Can't play fantasy ball. Go with who ya got. Did you read the board earlier today? My point was it’d be nice to have a legit shooter on the team.. Some of us do work...

This team just does not play good defense and it is getting killed on the boards by a smaller and more aggressive team. Have to think that the longer 3 point line has changed Harvard’s game plan and probably good for the Hoyas that they are not hitting that perimeter shot—so far.

This is trash.....Patrick needs to tell Mac and Akinjo to take it to the hoop every time down the floor. Harvard can’t play with this team!!! WTF are we even doing trying to run plays??!! Take it to the hoop and press all game. Dear god.

The best defensive teams defend as a team... yes but he was standing straight up that guy went by so slow and then after he blew by made no attempt to recover

Maybe not but you should be prepared to help regardless,.. Josh was standing right there watching the man come to him, step in and help your teammate out...
