tourney review

[section28]

shoulda coulda won all 3 games... good teams ... so what. we do have a point guard problem... today, the worst shooter on the floor took the last 3 shots... not acceptable.
this is not a big puzzle... Faas is probably the best shooter in college basketball at any level. I have never seen something as pure since John Sundvold... He needs to....shoot. They... the other 12 guys need to... Get him the eff open. easy. not get yours but give the good shooters the ball... so after looking... I am for something we will never do.
1. Kopp backed by baba and malik
2. Jamar backed by baba and Jayson Petty
3. Cameron backed by Anderson
4. Allan backed by melvyn and promise
5. Jeff backed by Melyvn and promise

Artise and Kristion too many brain farts... for 5th year guys.

Take Jeff out if he drbbles more than once. Really sick of watching him dribble... he makes a couple shots and goes back to dribbling
Including the NAIA teams, we are giving up 40% from the 3line.... outrageous ... bad rotations against Brown Saturday giving up open shots to little #10 when we knew he was hot... and the failure to feed the shooters today when we had a chance. AK and Cameron are very poor perimeter defenders but good team defenders. Put rim protectors (jeff and allan) behind them ... and we still keep the 4 scorers on the floor. Our defense would be sub par but we put BABA on whoever is killing us... also have 5 fouls from a very quick Malik that can push for minutes. This will put AK at risk for perimeter fouls... but he needs fewer minutes (avg 27 minutes max) as he was exhausted today.We did very well when we had 2of the 3 bigs on the floor due to foul trouble.

BABA was not allowed to leave the country because US immigration is a shambles in my opinion.
When the coaches have time to recruit, they do a great job... Kristion and Artise are emergency fill ins for our guys that left very late in the process.

I have been disappointed that the sophomore class has not shown any improvement since last season. Two of the top 3 players are Juco guys that can definitely shoot the ball. Where is Jeff, Tyler, and Mukeba scoring and rebounding the ball. Where are the easy buckets in the paint? The majority of points are from the 3 point line. The Roos are missing the guards that can get into the lane and score or get fouled and make their free throws. Like Alan and RayQ did last season. The bigs need to start playing better and the guards cut down on the turnover. It has been a rough start considering how well Faas and Brown have played!

I can give a few thoughts after watching all the games:

Mukeba - He looks good to me. Very strong and a difference maker in the paint. We are just playing him limited minutes for some reason, and apparently not getting him the ball enough.

Jeff - not getting hardly any playing time, so very difficult to evaluate.

Offense - i cant help but watch this offense and think that it is the PERFECT mix......if we also had Shemarri Allen and perhaps RayQuan on the court with them.

Sitting in Houston on my way home. Gotta say sometimes this is tough after 35 years… do we have all the right guys at the right time. Mike Watson gone before 95, Jackson gone before English always trying to plumber together a solution… just like the Chiefs for 40 years…. When in reality we just needed to get lucky… yes lucky on a QB.. seems really tough with NIL now. Hope we can make a little fire happen. Odd that shemarri and Ray Q got “offers” of NIL” which is against the rules… we need to figure that out too
