    Jans is great, but he isn't above criticism. He emptied the bench when we were up 6 early in the game. 10-0 Pitt run. That matters. You can't do that in the tourney. The TOs are longer... you get more rest. Play your horses

    Cam was supposed to Brandon Vincent. Instead he became the Incredible Shrinking Man. Our 2 guards carried us offensively but could not prevent their 3?s or dribble drives without fouling

    Don't insult Croom and Woody's offense.******

    I said the same thing when it happened and it broke our rhythm and lost the momentum. Overall Jans gets an A from me though. Very good season!

    Bigger, taller, stronger, faster and more athletic. Should have won that game by 10 points. Cam and Tolu no showed

    It will thrill my heart not to set Stevenson come off the bench next year. That guy kills us

    I'm ok with the shot. These guys practice the corner 3 more than they do the same shot from 10 feet closer.

    Cam had some bullshit fouls called on him that affected his play down the stretch.

    We will have a mostly different team next year and could possibly end up better offensively. That says a lot about the players that Howland left. Bull crap on his recruiting ability. If you ain?t recruiting shooters, you ain?t recruiting for basketball. Athletes are for football. Shooters are for basketball.

    And hell. They would even be athletic on the court if the NCAA mandated proper dribbling instead of palming they ball. The so called hesitation move is just blatant palming.

    Haha ... well that may be but they don't make them as much as the shorter shots.

    Tolu. Makes him defend the perimeter and it puts a finesse guy on a finesse guy. I have never seen a big man miss so many layups or even attempt so many as he does. He was our best offensive weapon and he won the Howell for a reason. But it says a lot that he was our best option

    The old style inside out, feed the post game will not win in today?s basketball. We have to get better shooting the ball. Take more threes be fewer long twos. Get to the line. Space the floor.

    Well said and I agree. Jan's worked some magic with this team.

    I'm with you. We practice them enough to know we aren't very good at them

    Yep. And you drive closer you lose the tip in opportunity. We missed both which isn't surprising because this team is not good offensively. It's not a shock.
