Epps on defense doesn't stay with the defensive slide and crosses his feet. His man is taking advantage every time. He will get owned in the BE if he doesn't fix it. He’s getting owned by KenPom 250+ teams. Not an all-around player. Whoever anointed him the highest paid Hoya may have made a serious mistake.

We are getting badly outplayed by American this game. We keep trying to come back from behind, but we aren’t playing well defensively or offensively.

Embarrassing. Two straight Ls to an American team that had not beaten Gtown in 20+ years.

Pathetic. Nothing else to say. I don’t care how young, new, etc we are. Losing 2 of the first 4 games at home to American and Holy Cross should never happen at this level. I’m truly shocked at this product Cooley and staff have rolled out thus far.

The most annoying thing is listening to the broadcasters tout this as a “rivalry” game.

The problem with NIL is you decide a guy like Epps is worth a lot of money and you can’t move off of that. It’s a sunk cost. Good luck trying to coach guys like that to play within a team concept. He’s getting paid either way.

Brumbaugh is the floor general but his lack of speed and quickness is concerning. He can’t blow by people which hurts him on the trap/press. I never saw the Kolek comp because Kolek is a lot quicker.

Epps has way more Primo in him than posters here probably want to admit. He can’t stay in front of anyone and he’s believing his own hype. Thank heavens for Dontrez or this would be ugly. That was the knock on Epps that many on the board called out when he committed. Sometimes plays this way with hero ball and only one number on his phone (his own), but also will dish to wide open players. He doesn't draw players to himself to kick though, it has to be there.

It was last season as well so not sure why people were expecting something different. Assistant coach who came from Boo Williams decided to bring in Epps as “the guy”.

Not sure how Cooley has seen what Epps is doing and what Rowan is doing and decided to take Rowan out and leave Epps in.

Poor shooting is killing the Hoyas and not pullng down rebounds. Hoyas get their hands on the ball on boards, but don't control it.

Remember all the posters here worried that we scheduled too many sub 300 cupcakes? Um

Spending millions on this program just to get humiliated by the worst teams in the country. Again.

How did Rowan end up defending Webb with Fielder on nobody in transition.
