Take Duke off that list. They have never been, nor will ever be our rivals until we face them 3 of 4 years in the Final Four and/or JT3 and Coach K get into a fist fight at an AAU Tournament while recruiting the number one prospect in the nation. Now THAT'S how you start a rivalry!!!! I'd pay good money if someone could kick WoJo in the xyphoid process!!!

Or you could just tell them to go to hell...
That's been working pretty well for me the past 15 years.

I think the Duke loss was definitely one of those games that made us open up our offense.
Guards had to start shooting more.

Jeremiah needs to get in the gym and work on that 'J'... He's going to be very hard to guard if he starts poppin' from the outside. I like his game. I've always liked that he's a big guard, but I've noticed, especially last night, he's pretty fast too. There were several instances where he sped up court only to have to slow down and wait for the offense to set up. He has a very solid game...nothing flashy... Gotta take care of the ball better, but I like our backcourt over the next few years.

Not a battle worth fighting.
If Jeff couldn't cut it at Georgetown, he would be gone.

If we can manage to score more points than Villanova in the first half, and then hold on to the lead in the 2nd half, we have a good chance to win this game.

I think Beilein(sp) just got emotional and confronted Ewing. I don't know what he said, but I'd like to believe it was nothing more than letting Pat know that what he did wasn't called for.
Still have much respect for him.

Calm down, Pat...
There are times when we gotta "Knuckle-Up"...that wasn't one of them.
I think the West Va. player was just hustling.
Keep that Fire though!!!

I agree with Buff, SoCal and some of the others.
You don't want to change what we do well, and that's run the half-court offense. But sometimes we break the press and have the numbers but don't attack. And we definitely have the guards and forwards to execute a 3 on 2 break, or whatever the advantage may be.
Do you attack everytime? Of course not. But I think you make teams a lot more reluctant to press when they know that you'll take it to the basket after breaking it, and DaJuan, Jeff, or Pat finishes with some two-fisted fury.

I think aggy may be on to something. I've noticed that when the team breaks the press, the opponent - confident Wallace/Sapp/Rivers is going to pull it out and set up the offense - just sort of trots back into position and sets up their defense. This obviously does not occur EVERY time down the court - otherwise we'd likely see a dozen or so more Roy/Jeff/Mack/PEJR dunks per game - but I've seen it enough to wish one of the guards (particularly Sapp) would take it hard to the rim a few times a game. Get someone in foul trouble, create an easy dunk/layin for some free points... that's all I was sayin'...

why do things that do not play to the strengths of your current personnel (i.e attack teams off the dribble)? that would be very foolish attack teams off the dribble v. attack teams after breaking the press are these two the same thing? Mrsixer, are you just trying to add to your post count?

I wish when we broke the other team's press that we'd attack the hoop more. Since the Villanova game I've noticed that teams are trying to employ that same press. And I think more teams will try to do so because they know that we won't/seldom attack the hoop once we break it.
Other than that, I just wanted an obnoxious title for my thread so people would read it.
Very happy with the team's performance this year.
Work on that 'J', Jeremiah!!!
Take it strong to the Hoop, Roy!!!
Keep hypin' it up, Pat Jr.!!!
and...
GET OCTAVIUS SPANN THE BALL!!! HE'S ALWAYS OPEN!!! AND HE'S ALWAYS ON FIRE!!!!

I think Sapp is underrated...
Wallace and Jesse should continue taking it to the hole...at worse, they'll get fouled and go to the line...
Gotta be strong down there, Roy!!! Stop bringing that ball down.
Very proud of the way the guards are playing.

My first glimpse of Sleepy and the Hoyas was the National Championship game.
My cousin to this day believes that if Fred Brown wouldn't have had a brain-fart, Sleepy was going to win that game.
