Thread for the few people on this board not helping the Hump be bumping

[Tater]

Great start. Only complaint is they ****ed up the shutout. I'll take 35 more minutes of that please.

Kugel back and hits a 3. (After missing one). Love to see it.

Bullshit chant was loud on TV. Love it.

[RockyDog]

We were supposed to be worrried about this Dia clown? Is he invisible?

[RockyDog]

That towel waving baldy on their bench needs his ass kicked

[msstate7]

Jans, that's too long a stretch with no Hubbard and cam.

[msstate7]

Jans is doubling down on no ball handler. Hate it

[RockyDog]

I hate this offense weve started running. We bring all the bodies to the 3 point line and then expect Josh to find an open shot.

[RockyDog]

Brick city Hubb

[Tater]

10 point game that's too close because we're being careless with the ball.

[msstate7]

Hubbard is gonna catch fire at some point, and I really hope some point is tonight

[msstate7]

Murrell with 2 fouls is pretty big. We need to make them pay for sitting him

[maroonmania]

A LOT of careless turnovers by us keeping OM in the game.

[RockyDog]

Hubbard is killing us. Sit his ass

[msstate7]

wtf!!! He shoved him in the back!!! That's flagrant

[maroonmania]

We continue to throw away possessions with careless passes.

[msstate7]

Hubbard, are you taking a dive? Play!!!

[msstate7]

We continue to throw away possessions with careless passes.

Bc we lack ball handlers

[maroonmania]

We get no favors from officials for being at home thats for darn sure.

[cheewgumm]

Hubbard needs to shoot 100 threes a day

[msstate7]

We get the foul when we have an easy put back

[cheewgumm]

Not saying I know how to teach Hubbard how to shoot. Obviously.


Just that it may help him break out of this slump.

[msstate7]

Hubbard needs to shoot 100 threes a day

We need a pt, so he can be a shooter

[RockyDog]

Hubbard and Cam are just careless with the ball the last few games. Time to let kugel and Melendez get more time

[RockyDog]

If Clary isn’t really injured then screw him because he’s killing this team

[RockyDog]

Guard the Mexican. He’s their only player!!!

[msstate7]

The white guy that thinks he Carmelo Anthony is the only reason they're in sight

[RockyDog]

BENCH HUBBARD

[mparkerfd20]

Sit Hubbard

[HoopsDawg]

Feels like we should be up 20

[MoreCowbell]

Hubbard is a legit liability now

[maroonmania]

Our 3 point defense is still really bad.

[maroonmania]

And I really wish Sean Jones would quit taking 3s. He is just not very good at it.

[PGHBulldogBG]

Our 3 point defense is still really bad.

That is what is going to hold us back. We have to figure that out if we want to make a run in the tournament

[msstate7]

We plus 8 at the half... I'm thrilled with that.

[maroonmania]

Feels like we should be up 20

Yep, this game still very much in doubt with them scoring the last 6 points. That 3 ball that hit the rim 3 or 4 times before falling in for them just gave a really bad feeling about this game.

[SailingDawg]

Too close at the half. Why can?t that school decide on colors? A mascot?

Did any of our students wear a wife beater?

I hate ole misss.

[civildawg]

I have no clue what our offense is. What happened to the cuts and passing that we did at Memphis? All we do is dribble it around the 3 point line and then take a 3

[msstate7]

Feels like we should be up 20

Maybe. They're shooting better than us. We're killing them on boards

[RockyDog]

I have no clue what our offense is. What happened to the cuts and passing that we did at Memphis? All we do is dribble it around the 3 point line and then take a 3

Yep it is atrocious. Janstastic better figure it out or he can move on to his mythical blue blood job.

[HoopsDawg]

Maybe. They're shooting better than us. We're killing them on boards

Maybe? Not sure we're watching the same game. We dominated that half.

[msstate7]

If any of you beeches were told we'd be up 8 while getting outshot at the half, you'd all be thrilled. Stop being scared... we got this game

[RockyDog]

Hubbard is gonna dominate the Sun Belt next year

[msstate7]

Maybe? Not sure we're watching the same game. We dominated that half.

Yeah...
12-27 shooting for OM (44.4)
13-30 shooting for state (43.3)
Both teams 4/13 from 3

Total and utter domination

[msstate7]

We've dominated boards but -3 on TOs. Total domination:

[civildawg]

Hubbard is too busy trying to flop and get a foul on all his shots. He just needs to stop worrying about it and play

[maroonmania]

Matthews is useless at the free throw line

[RockyDog]

Total clown show on offense

[Saltydog]

Matthews picked a bad game to play his worst game of the year. He's gonna have to step it up in the second half or we're gonna lose.

[RockyDog]

Matthews picked a bad game to play his worst game of the year. He's gonna have to step it up in the second half or we're gonna lose.

He and Josh have totally lost it

[RockyDog]

Sit 12. Damn!!!!!!

[HoopsDawg]

Kugel for Hubbard pls

[Saltydog]

Whatever we paid for Hubbard in NIL was too much.

[maroonmania]

Officiating is killing us now.

[RockyDog]

About to get embarrassed by the wife beater.

[R2Dawg]

Refs have taken over this game for OM. Why can't we get a fair game?

[RockyDog]

17 you Jans and hubbard

[R2Dawg]

Hubbard in a shooting slump is what it is but he just playing like he don't care.

[R2Dawg]

OM can slap, push, shove, whatever. We breathe on them and it is a foul. Refs been paid off in this game.

[HoopsDawg]

Officiating is killing us now.

What an awful call on Cam.

[msstate7]

We just can't shoot. They're better. Someone blow my brains out

[maroonmania]

Basketball is so controlled by officiating its ridiculous.

[civildawg]

This is embarrassing. We are so lost on offense

[msstate7]

Basketball is so controlled by officiating its ridiculous.

Gotta get those foul totals even. Who cares if there's actual foups

[maroonmania]

We just can't shoot. They're better. Someone blow my brains out

No, we can't shoot but the fouls are so one sided right now its distorting the game.

[Dawgology]

This is honestly an average team with a couple good games. Definitely not a sweet 16 team. Probably won’t make it out of first round…again.

[RockyDog]

OM can slap, push, shove, whatever. We breathe on them and it is a foul. Refs been paid off in this game.

How bout we run a damn offense? We are paying a midget shooting guard to run around and not shoot while we run the offense thru a bull in a china shop who has ZERO shooting skills and can’t make a damn free throw

[msstate7]

No, we can't shoot but the fouls are so one sided right now it's hadistorting the game.

Refs have to get totals even. College basketball is a horrible product! Why do I love this shit!!!!????

[maroonmania]

This is embarrassing. We are so lost on offense

Because OM is a better defensive team than we are. That's why the fouls on the OM end are killing us. They are a much better defensive team than offensive team but getting free points on bogus fouls while we are getting nothing called on the other end.

[maroonmania]

We give up more wide open 3 point shots than any team I've seen.

[HoopsDawg]

Murphy, you can't lose Dia twice!!

[civildawg]

Again Hubbard has to stop trying to get fouled on everything. Just play basketball

[R2Dawg]

This is a game we gotta have for NCAAT resume.

[HoopsDawg]

We finally get some rhythm on offense and Jans goes to the bench

[msstate7]

Both of us are good. We need Josh and cam to step up

[R2Dawg]

Again Hubbard has to stop trying to get fouled on everything. Just play basketball

He is lazy on D too. Hubbard needs to grow up and be a leader on this team. My worst fears are coming true about him.

[PGHBulldogBG]

We just aren?t that good. NIL is bringing the SEC and Big Ten up. The big 12 and ACC are slowly losing their basketball reputation because of it. It hurts us because our NIL is more along the lines in those conferences.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Someone may tell him, I would rather him to get up a clean shot than trying to draw a foul every time. Get into the lane and hit your 15fter

[HoopsDawg]

We give up more wide open 3 point shots than any team I've seen.

Sometimes you just gotta give up the 2 instead of the 3.

[maroonmania]

This is a game we gotta have for NCAAT resume.

You HAVE to defend your home court in this league. Losing 2 of the first 3 would be awful. The uncontested 3s we are giving up is ridiculous.

[msstate7]

Murphy, you can't lose Dia twice!!

26.8 from 3 entering game

[Lord McBuckethead]

Another NOT a Foul. That is a stop by Mathews.

[maroonmania]

Can't even count on Hubbard for free throws anymore.

[maroonmania]

Leaving a TON of points at the FT line.

[maroonmania]

Just guard the 3 ball, they absolutely can't hit a 2.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Hubbard not playing defense now either. Damn.

[RockyDog]

Lazy Josh just lets his white guy get wide open

[civildawg]

Sit Hubbard. That was his man he just left wide open

[HoopsDawg]

Man, come on Hubbard!!

[Lord McBuckethead]

Exactly. We just leave a simple screener get someone open every single time. How come can we not do that for our shooters.

[maroonmania]

We can't guard the 3 pointer! We just leave people wide open. Very disappointed with Jans and his defense.

[RockyDog]

Obviously Mr Hubbard has Jan’s balls in a jar. This is gutless basketball from the head coach on down

[maroonmania]

Exactly. We just leave a simple screener get someone open every single time. How come can we not do that for our shooters.

Any team with decent 3 point shooters is going to eat us alive. We can't guard the perimeter.

[msstate7]

Let's let Josh go if we gonna play him
At pt. He sucks at that position

[Dawgology]

Sit Hubbard. That was his man he just left wide open

Yeah. Hubbard got paid and he’s seems to be giving us a solid 50%

[maroonmania]

Its all about guarding the 3 pointer at this point.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Murphy, can?t leave your feet bud.

[maroonmania]

All about the 3 point shot that we can't defend.

[HoopsDawg]

Hate RJ, Harris and Nwoko all on the bench together

[Lord McBuckethead]

Got to go full court after the next made bucket.

[RockyDog]

They can get their white boys a wide open 3 any time they want and we can’t get Hubbard to take a damn shot

[Lord McBuckethead]

Once again. Our team looks tired.

[HoopsDawg]

Put RJ in for Jones!!!!

[RockyDog]

CLOWN SHOW led by Bozo Jans

[RezDog7]

This team won't even make the tournament

[Dawgology]

Yeah. State loses this game good luck “packing the hump”. Folks have better things to do

[Lord McBuckethead]

Good play for Kugal there.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Same play, then pitch to Mathews. High percentage play.

[maroonmania]

I thought when the SWAC teams were hitting 3 pointers on us it was just lack of intensity but it was really an omen than our perimeter defense is flawed.

[HoopsDawg]

Jans has got to evaluate our perimeter defense and how we defend screens, help and rotate

[maroonmania]

Jans has got to evaluate our perimeter defense and how we defend screens, help and rotate

If we lose this one it will be due to our perimeter defense and poor free throw shooting.

[RockyDog]

If the offense runs thru Cam and Kugel and Melendez are taking the shots, why is Josh in there? Harris needs to be in there

[HoopsDawg]

I thought when the SWAC teams were hitting 3 pointers on us it was just lack of intensity but it was really an omen than our perimeter defense is flawed.

We were in the 300's in 3 point D. Got it figured out vs Memphis, South Carolina and Vandy and have since regressed.

[civildawg]

This has become a ref show, there is a play review every timeout. Not every call has to be perfect

[HoopsDawg]

Umm, that's not the right call. That's 2 points off the board.

[Dawgology]

If the offense runs thru Cam and Kugel and Melendez are taking the shots, why is Josh in there? Harris needs to be in there

This. He’s just a liability now.

[R2Dawg]

This has become a ref show, there is a play review every timeout. Not every call has to be perfect

They already reviewed it once; you can't go back again. Total Ref shit show.

OM has 2 3s tonight after blatant walking and no call. This game should already be over but refs all in for OM.

[HoopsDawg]

I can't believe they overturned that. Too close to tell if the ball was out of the cylinder when Murphy touched it. Then clear interference on Ole Miss.

[RockyDog]

12 has not taken a shot in the last 4+ minutes and he’s barely touching it on the offensive end. Janstastic needs his ass kicked

[maroonmania]

Umm, that's not the right call. That's 2 points off the board.

When Murphy tipped it the ball had left the cylinder but the tip put it back into the cylinder when the OM guy hit it. I don't agree that the call was made correctly.

[maroonmania]

I can't believe they overturned that. Too close to tell if the ball was out of the cylinder when Murphy touched it. Then clear interference on Ole Miss.

Yep, SEC officiating just means less.

[R2Dawg]

If we lose this one it will be due to our perimeter defense and poor free throw shooting.

Refs are responsible for 8 OM pts - 2 3s were after real bad walks no call and the 2 they took off for us.

[HoopsDawg]

Cam, no!!!

[Lord McBuckethead]

Mathews may have screwed us on that home run try. We could have burned 25 off the clock and took a shot to extend.

He will have a chance to make it up.

[maroonmania]

That throwaway may cost us the game. We would have had a 4 point lead ready to take the clock under a minute.

[HoopsDawg]

Why did the clock stop running?!?

[RockyDog]

Give Keyshawn ALL the minutes. He the only one that showed up

[maroonmania]

Shooting 50% at the line is not going to do it.

[civildawg]

No matter what happens, I'm at the game but these refs need to be investigated and I'm very concerned about our team. Our offense is atrocious, why is cam Matthew's our point guard?! I don't understand

[RockyDog]

CLOWNSHOW

[RockyDog]

We just sit on 2 timeouts? 17 you DENTIST

[RezDog7]

Absolute garbage

[R2Dawg]

Ballgame, we just stupid. Drive the ball make them foul.

[Dawgology]

Absolutely pathetic. I’m done. Hope they win if they do or don’t I don’t care. Peace out guys. State just isnt for me right now. May be done completely.

[1eyedog]

why take a three??

[EdwardDrayton]

After leading the entire game. <smh>

[HoopsDawg]

Loading backbreaking loss

[R2Dawg]

No matter what happens, I'm at the game but these refs need to be investigated and I'm very concerned about our team. Our offense is atrocious, why is cam Matthew's our point guard?! I don't understand

Agree, refs were criminal tonight.

[msstate7]

Jans had an iq of 50

[CaptainObvious]

You cannot get more Mississippi State than those last minutes!

[Thick]

Shitty coaching down the stretch! Jans screwed this up?..use your TOs MORON!!!

[msstate7]

No coach in the country doesn't foul immediately, but jans

[R2Dawg]

Lose this game and season is toast.

[RockyDog]

And Jans wants a blue blood job? LOLOLOLOLOLOL

[msstate7]

Tebow needs to spend time with Jans.

[civildawg]

We have NO offensive sets

[R2Dawg]

He jumped into Cam, not a foul

[HoopsDawg]

Put Harris in you dumb m'f'er

[msstate7]

NBA cut out that stupid shit. NCAA needs to follow suite.

[R2Dawg]

All of a sudden, it looks like we got real issues on our team.

[maroonmania]

If an offensive guy jumps into a defensive player I don't understand why that's a foul on the defensive player

[msstate7]

Jans is a retard, we will lose bc he's special needs

[RezDog7]

MSU should quit athletics

[RockyDog]

Josh has taken one shot in like 8+ minutes and it was the damn bunny he just short armed. Yet Harris sits on the bench while Melendez and Kugel crank out 3s

[maroonmania]

We just have any guys that can make perimeter shots any more.

[State82]

No coach in the country doesn't foul immediately, but jans

Yep. Beard coaches circles around Jans.

[RockyDog]

Jans is a retard, we will lose bc he's special needs

Janstastic!!!!

[maroonmania]

I figure them stealing 2 points away from us on the board would cost us the game.

[CaptainObvious]

why take a three??

Because Kugel has wanted to be Henry hero since 5 games ago. He seems to be a selfish player to me. Maybe his leash wasn't tight enough.

Free Throwing hurts this team.

[civildawg]

I'm asking this again, why is cam Matthew's our point guard?

[CaptainObvious]

I figure them stealing 2 points away from us on the board would cost us the game.
They didn't steal anything. That was the right call.

[RockyDog]

Once again, midget on the floor and he doesn’t touch it while Melendez cranks the 3

[magrooder]

What a frickin' play

[civildawg]

These refs need to be demoted. I'm in shock at how bad they are

[1eyedog]

What is with the Banana S*** ??? Do the DOG students strive to look ignorant??

[RockyDog]

Where the hell is Harris?

[1eyedog]

Teaching how to shoot free throws would be a wonderful start

[RockyDog]

It’s MSU ball you dumb baldy. Sit your dumb ass down next to the wifebeater

[magrooder]

That is State ball

[maroonmania]

Thank you Kugel for making free throws






1

[HoopsDawg]

OMG JONES

[R2Dawg]

Worst officiating I've ever seen in my lifetime.

[RockyDog]

This team is as stupid as their coach

[HoopsDawg]

We have to foul here

[CaptainObvious]

We have Road's Scholars. Not Rhodes Scholars. Road Scholars! Guys who make dumb fouls like that need to be put in the ROAD!!!

[1eyedog]

Crap......free throws are a wonderful thing......may want to practice that

[RockyDog]

Go find another job Janstastic

[Quaoarsking]

These refs need some self-confidence. Too much going to the tape.

[RockyDog]

Won that game in SPITE of Hubbard and Janstastic

[HoopsDawg]

Wasn't pretty but huge win

[CaptainObvious]

Thank you Kugel for making free throws






1
I accused him of "trying" to be the hero at end of regulation! Turns out he WAS the hero in overtime.

[NCMSTFAN]

That was a stressful ass game! I was pissed that we let the lead get away but I was also proud that we stuck together and found a way to win in OT. Thank God for Kugel and Murphy, Hubbard is in a huge slump, we need Clary back. Not sure we win this game without Kugel

[R2Dawg]

Glad to get the win but we got lots of issues to clean up.

Hubbard, a point guard, guarding 3, etc.

We had great passing and movement early in year but we've lost it now. Hub needs coaching and counseling.,

Kugel, RJ, Cam and Murphy must be on the floor as much as possible. Harris, Hub, Jones, Nwoko for the rest.

[EdwardDrayton]

That was ALMOST the most Mississippi State thing ever. Whew. The Hump was as electric as I've ever experienced! I'm exhausted. I need a drink.

[SailingDawg]

They were too tired to celebrate. Thankful they pulled it out.

[msstate7]

Huge win!!!

[NCMSTFAN]

I know Kugel can be up and down but Jans is going to have to let him play through mistakes because he is our best Offensive option. Hubbard just doesn't have it right now

[CarolinaDawgs]

Not sure this team has the nuts nor offensive ability to make a run in the tourney but that was an awesome game. Shouldve been a loss just so Jans would have to make some changes. I hope he never goes full retard again.

[HoopsDawg]

I know Kugel can be up and down but Jans is going to have to let him play through mistakes because he is our best Offensive option. Hubbard just doesn't have it right now

Kugel is one of the most talented guys in the league. We have to live with the occasional bad shot.

Here's a combo I would like to see: Harris, Kugel, RJ, Cam, Murphy.

[MoreCowbell]

It is not a slump anymore. This is who Hubbard is now. He is holding this team back. The roster was constructed around him being a guy who can get a bucket whenever. He is not able to get shots off anymore. Too small.

[MoreCowbell]

Is Clary really hurt? Why is his status so secretive? What is going on with him really?

[NCMSTFAN]

Kugel is one of the most talented guys in the league. We have to live with the occasional bad shot.

Here's a combo I would like to see: Harris, Kugel, RJ, Cam, Murphy.

Very true, in some games Jans would get pissed at him and make him sit but Jans needs to give Kugel the same leash he gives Hubbard.

Yes, that's currently our best 5 and should see the bulk of minutes

[RockyDog]

It is not a slump anymore. This is who Hubbard is now. He is holding this team back. The roster was constructed around him being a guy who can get a bucket whenever. He is not able to get shots off anymore. Too small.

Yep. Last 12+ minutes he took 2 weak ass shots in the paint and missed both. And he doesn’t even distribute the ball on the offensive end. We are getting absolutely NOTHING from whatever the hell position he is playing.

[Saltydog]

Is Clary really hurt? Why is his status so secretive? What is going on with him really?

At this point I think it's safe to say he is not hurt. Guy had issues at PSU so it wouldn't surprise me if there is something similar going on.

[NCMSTFAN]

It is not a slump anymore. This is who Hubbard is now. He is holding this team back. The roster was constructed around him being a guy who can get a bucket whenever. He is not able to get shots off anymore. Too small.

I can't argue with you because Hubbard hasn't shown me anything as of late to say you are wrong. But I still think he will get out of this slump, he is too good of a shooter to not, but I could be wrong.

[Saltydog]

Hubbard was ok playing the PG in spots but playing it f/t is obviously affecting his game. I'm guessing he isn't happy playing it f/t either. Warren isn't the answer and I think it's safe to say Clary won't be back. It's an issue for sure and unfortunately there aren't any answers. Harris is not a great ball handler either.

If Hubbard wants to play professionally he has to be ok playing PG, he doesn't have a choice because of his sizs.

[LC Dawg]

Just got in from The Hump. It was a great atmosphere and great win. If we didn't get Kugel back we lose that game. Also, Murphy had some boneheaded stuff early and I questioned Jan's sticking with him so long but it paid off.

[PGHBulldogBG]

We aren?t winning at Tenn so have to move forward and beat one of Mizzou/Bama at home. The last 4 games is where we need to sweep to get a good seed

[maroonmania]

If Hubbard wants to play professionally he has to be ok playing PG, he doesn't have a choice because of his sizs.

I don't think Hubbard will ever play in the NBA full time. He is like Daryl Wilson in that he can be a really good college player but is too undersized for the NBA. Doesn't mean he can't make a lot of money playing overseas though.

[HoopsDawg]

We aren?t winning at Tenn so have to move forward and beat one of Mizzou/Bama at home. The last 4 games is where we need to sweep to get a good seed

one game at a time

[HoopsDawg]

I don't think Hubbard will ever play in the NBA full time. He is like Daryl Wilson in that he can be a really good college player but is too undersized for the NBA. Doesn't mean he can't make a lot of money playing overseas though.

Hubb can make a lot of money playing college the next 2 years and he will. then he can have a good life overseas. also comes from a good family that has money. Everyone needs to stay positive on Hubb. He is a big key to the season. But this is Cam's team and Kugel is the true wild card.

[maroonmania]

Just got in from The Hump. It was a great atmosphere and great win. If we didn't get Kugel back we lose that game. Also, Murphy had some boneheaded stuff early and I questioned Jan's sticking with him so long but it paid off.

We had some really bonehead plays in that game. The attempted touchdown pass up 4 in regulation with just over a minute to go was terrible, the pass behind Melendez after the overturned review was bad and then the intentional foul on Jones was the worst of all. That is about the only thing that could have given OM a chance. Between those things and the screw job by the SEC refs that we got today its a miracle we won. I still can't believe they came back 10 mins later and took 2 points away from us when it was very questionable saying the ball was in the cylinder when Murphy touched it yet there was no question it was in the cylinder when the Rebs touched it.

[Tater]

Good lord I had to watch it on mute but that game was stressful. A win is a win but jesus ****.

We've got to figure out how to run plays on offense. Stupid turnovers turned a 20+ blowout into an OT sweat fest.

[maroonmania]

Hubb can make a lot of money playing college the next 2 years and he will. then he can have a good life overseas. also comes from a good family that has money. Everyone needs to stay positive on Hubb. He is a big key to the season. But this is Cam's team and Kugel is the true wild card.

Hopefully Hubb gets his mojo back. We REALLY need his offense. And its definitely become a mental thing now. When he is starting to struggle even making his free throws then you know he is losing his confidence.

[civildawg]

Hubbard is constantly trying to get fouled or trying to act like he was fouled. He's thinking too much about that instead of playing basketball

[CaptainObvious]

Opponents have Hubbard figured out. Put a 6'3-6'4 guard on him and don't let him shoot. But he IS a shooter, not a true dribble driver who can create a shot in the lane. Jans needs to watch film from how Williams used Darryl Wilson. He ran him around and along the baseline and back to a wing behind a 6'7" screener where he had wide open 3. So it has to be set plays. Jones, Melendez, Harris, and Kugel can create their own 3 point space. Stan's did the same thing for Frazier, but Frazier could also get his own space. Zimmerman and Bowers could jump out of the gym so they could create space even when closely guarded.

We run that look a ton, sometimes for Hubbard. Just don't hit the open 3 well enough. We're so close to being an unstoppable team if we could hit the 3 at a 5 to 10% higher clip.

[Todd4State]

We run that look a ton, sometimes for Hubbard. Just don't hit the open 3 well enough. We're so close to being an unstoppable team if we could hit the 3 at a 5 to 10% higher clip.

That's the good news is a way because you know it's a matter of time before he breaks out of his slump.

I think a lot of the stupid things we did was MSU just trying to do too much. Ole Miss was hot and we were coming in on a two game losing streak and I think it just made everything bigger for our guys and it was really a recipe for pressing too much.

[Pancho]

I'm more focused on us giving up 40% from behind the arch

Z and Bowers were like 5" taller than Hub too. Early in year Hub was driving and shooting adn dishing now he isn't.

Hubbard was hurt in the UNLV game and hasn't been right since even though he didn't take a game off. I think that's still partly to do with it.

Jans can't let teams get a 3 off like the one that tied the game in regulation. Just foul.

At least we had a defender in his face on that one. It's all the totally uncontested 3s we give up that is the big problem. We have a really solid team, but the two real liabilities with this team are perimeter defense and free throw shooting. When Matthews or Murray go to the free throw line, it's not much better than a turnover.

One thing is for sure. The Hump needs to continue the energy it had last night. Talking to people who went - it was as bumpin and jumpin since 2004. It looked and felt that way on TV and I hate I couldn't be there.

I even saw a few of the blue hairs actually stand and clap a little after a big play.......

And none of them are complaining on Twitter today.
