What we needed is maybe one less 2/3 on the wing and instead one more power 4 with some junk in the trunk to back up Mirk at the 4 if Jason can't do it. Settles had 13 boards in 25 min and out rebounded us by double digits! Length alone doesnt equate to rebounding every night if good teams have...
That sucks but if we had anyone that could keep stillwell off the glass we win. Dude had 13 boards in 26 min. These skinny 18 year old are no match for that. We dont have anyone that has an !!! with a realitively low center if gravity that can block out and rebound after Mirk. Someone over 250...
Without Coleman we were 5 of 28 from 3. Gotta hit FTs and we screwed up not adding a power 4 that can rebound after Mirk! Guys that are 215 can't rebound vs Stillwell and guys like MSU has. Im over people thinking skinny guys can deal with a true power 4. If you dont have one vs good teams and...
We are showing a lot of heart but man we miss a true rebounder behind Mirk. Id give anything for someone like Georgi B off the bench. No way Tech gets that many rebounds for that 3.
And someone make FRs besides Andre!
For those of you that think we didnt need an old school 4 to rebound behind Mirk you were wrong. Stillwell has 5 boards and hasn't played much and as a team we have 12. We miss Mirk.
We need to try to win and play freshmen but with at least 3 experienced guys on the floor. The environment is beating our young guys like Zens and even Coleman missing FTs badly. Ethan looks calm.
Big Z will have an impact at the rim vs teams like this and like he did in March. He missed some when he hit his head but let's not forget what an impact he had on D last March. I just want him to react on lo g rebounds a bit faster. Play to his strengths and he will have a huge impact.
I was there in CU with the wife since Thurs and just got home. Great wins both Thursday and Friday night. It was great to win that game last night and im estatic about 4 in a row and that we made a change at DC. What really stings though is if we hadnt hired Houck at all I honestly think we...
