[QUOTE="NCIllini10, post: 1679706, member: 748584"] LOL....I see what you did there.... No doubt that when (and if) we can play with greater than half of our typical starting lineup all at the same time, we should be better al the way around. My point was that for the majority of the game, the majority of our guys looked like cones that UTRGV were blowing by on the way to making layups. Trent is our best defender, no doubt. But, the other guys need to be able to keep their guy in front of them! AND.....this wasn't a top-tier team that we were playing against! I wish I could just drink the orange kool-aid and believe that everything is going to turn out great. But, until I see a team that plays defense and doesn't look lost 1/2 the time on offense, I will reserve my optimism. [/QUOTE]
