Win or lose, we’re still terrible. 10 point lead at half time and it’s gone 5 minutes in.

Just watched it. DVR’d it. Rough. GTown quicker almost everywhere. By far the best player on the floor was that Mohammed kid. Impressive. Really bad interior D. Though Jesse really struggled back there. Missed some easy ones on offense. Jimmy made a couple of plays but it was rough seeing him play below the rim. He’s such a plodder lol. Can’t say I’m surprised at the outcome. What a mess.

We scored 44 points and had 13 assists in the first half.
Symir Torrence played 5 minutes and we outscored GTown 14-7 in those 5 minutes. Frank Anselem had 5 points. We were moving the ball, getting great shots, and the bench was a huge factor….Benny even had a beautiful spin move for a layup.
Second half the starting 5 plays the entire half(other than a brief couple minute Frank appearance due to Jesse getting in foul trouble), and go ISO ball with Jimmy and Buddy, both who had poor games.
Make it make sense.

Make it make sense. Even with our lead at half time I had little to no confidence. Our lack of rotation, lack of movement off the ball, the pathetic defense, and lack of adjustments by our coach will drive this team further into the ground. Cole Swider, most unlikeable player in Orange than I can ever remember. If he never suited up again I wouldn’t even care. I’d say go back to Nova but I doubt they want him.

Make it make sense. Yeah I don’t know what happens in these second halves. They can’t afford to not move the rock, cut, etc. They aren’t capable of making all these ISO plays against any decent opponent and GTown isn’t even good. Bench deserved more run for sure as you noted. I don’t get it. This is the type of roster that WILL get worn down in the next few months. They don’t have lottery picks, thoroughbreds, etc. It’s getting more upsetting game by game watching this roster go out there and play. If you took the name/colors off of our jersey I swear we look like some bad BYU team or Patriot League team.

I said a “bad” BYU team, haha.

I mean, I had those negative thoughts like “watch, he’ll probably STILL try to go with the starters all second half and this will go to the wire”, but I had to see it to actually believe it. After that first half, how do you completely abandon what was working?

Way more athletic and the pieces may fit together better.

I love ya but can’t give this a like, and yeah we shouldn’t be looking ahead too far but considering I’m at the point of calling it this year id like to look ahead at greener pastures, unfortunately, the lineup you listed would be far worse than this squad. That said, Jesse should average 25-10 with that lineup at a minimum.

I was lurking on the other board. Maybe we should in fact try Anselem at the 4? Can’t get worse, IMO.
Also, we work too hard to get good shots. If we had athletes this simplistic offense would work. Maybe it’s time to start feeding the post regularly. Hopefully Jesse keeps improving. I’d like to see him attract attention to where he can kick it out for better looks.

Was at Army/Navy so did not watch. Alarming and disappointing to hear we had good bench production in the 1h to get a nice 10 pt lead only to roll with the same 5 the whole 2h.
Nepotism much...

Id put Jesse at the 4 and Frank at the 5 if we did it, either way, can’t get any worse than it is now.

Remember that fool Moqui? He was the one who pontificated over and over that we were fine and that JBA was in fact the staff’s Plan A.
