Who asked for the alley-oop pass? I did, and it was there. We need more of it. We're not using our athletes and enough on offense or defense.

With leapers like Peak, Trawick, and especially Copeland, why don't we ever run alley oop plays??? Too showy for Pops!!! You have to be able to make the pass.

I like our chances if some of these shots start to fall.

That one ref is calling fouls sooooo late. The last one was in our favor (bailout of white). But seriously his whistle is late.
And a few of them including the last one is still questionable. So it's not like he is waiting to get it right.
That is going to be frustrating all game.

Get used to being frustrated. Until the Hoyas can present an outside threat they are only going to see zones which takes Smith out of the offense and leaves him as a liability on defense. Hopkins at the high post was never going to work. It has to be White and then someone needs to make a shot. HOYAS are the smaller team today and getting beat on the defensive boards.

I love III but I hate the irrational love affair he develops with his upper classmen Last year it was Nate This season it's Mikael There is no way on this team that Paul White shouldn't be in the starting lineup. It's not an irrational love affair. Hopkins is much stronger than White defensively, and this is a defense-first team in JT3's eyes. If it were just based on offense, it isn't a close call. That being said, we are close to the tipping point, where Hopkins's offensive struggles are close to outweighing his defensive strengths over the past few games. It would be nice to see White assert himself more defensively and make the choice easier for JT3. I agree Mikael has been great defensively. But Paul White HAS to be a starter III basically needs to make a decision between Mikael and Josh. Both shouldn't be starters, and everyone sees is. We have 9 points in 13 minutes of basketball, and a big reason is Mikael Hopkins being on the floor at power forward. We have no spacing. No shooting.

Hoyas need to page every and all players who can either jump shot or drive to the rim.
