Hate having a woman color analyst. Don't mind as much a woman doing play by play(though I don't love it), but having a woman in the "expert" role for a sport she cant play (men's basketball, football, etc) really bothers me. I want a former player.

I think arenas are designed with camera placements already set. I think they do it to avoid coaches/bench standing and blocking some of the view. Just an odd design but I'm just being picky I guess.

Did they just call a double foul in the open court? Lord, I love basketball but the college game is hard to watch. Play seems to have gone down (wish it was like college baseball or hockey where you can go pro out of hs or play 2-3 years) and the referees are absolutely awful.

Not at the moment. Too many open looks from behind the line. Our players look discouraged cause the refs are calling a poor game.

We are fundamentally really poor on defense. No denying that. Some of these fouls calls are just ridiculous though, especially the last 2 on kegler.

Preacher, I'm not saying fire howland or something stupid like that, but our defense is awful. We rely on teams missing open shots and hoping we can get the defensive rebound bc we aren't good at that either. I can be pleased with a coach and still be critical

Yes he would. He's growing a lot but he's got a ton of room for improvement in that department still. He's also gotta learn to play like he's 6'10 and not the bring the ball down to father every catch. It makes him 6'2

I really don't understand why I watch this team. We do not defend the three worth a shit. How many open looks has Auburn gotten? Q is not a leader. Why can't our best player also be a leader out there? We have no leaders on this team which is why we are so inconsistent. If Howland had hair, it would have to be pulled out by now.

Q has sucked ever since he has started taking the ball to the basket and not shot three pointers. He has given up open three point shot after open three point shot just to take it to the basket for a contested layup. He really has been terrible down the stretch and the bad thing about this game is we have fouls on Kegler and Stapleton that has killed us too. But I think running Carter at the PG has been the difference in making us the most terrible version of ourselves. He has no clue right now and has been a liability on both offense and defense. Auburn made their early runs when Howland took out Kegler and put in Carter. I think Carter will be a great player for us by his senior year but he just is no where near ready to get the minutes that Howland is giving him.

Yeah I wonder if that has anything to do with Howland taking a few years off coaching and missing out on time to adjust to these changes. Maybe it's in the way he teaches it, but I can't recall a time we didn't out foul the other team and it's usually deserved.

He gave up at least 3-4 wide open threes to drive to the basket for two blocks that led to 7 points. Odds are good he makes 3-4 of wide open three pointers. That is a difference of 16 points. It's a different game.

If we are going to play 6 guards (especially when ready is back) I wouldn't mind seeing more full/ 3 quarter court press.

I wouldn't be surprised if Q's mins are drastically reduced next season unless he finds a new effort on the defensive side

Needs to get the surgery done tomorrow. He has no NBA future without it. Pre-injury he was a future NBA player. If we are going to reduce his minutes next year anyways he needs to be redshirting and healing instead.

The shitty thing is if we just would have played defense and kept the deficit at 12 or so we could have won this game. Auburn just shoots threes and is a streaky team and doesn't rebound well.

Auburn has 26 points on 13 of our turnovers? Can you get much more production than that? Typically 12-16 points off of 13 turnovers is considered a decent outcome. They've basically scored a basket on every one of our turnovers. That's unheard of on any level of basketball. Only against MSU.

Maybe his strategy is to just let them learn on their own this year and get valuable experience. Howland knew we were ****ed this year when Ado didn't get cleared. Atleast this is what I am hoping.

I don't want Q out. I want Q to play as hard on the defensive side as he does on the offensive. Q is a great scorer... I've never said he wasn't, but his defense is awful
