The spot to talk during the game...

Talk about what you like to see and vent your fustrations. Say what you would do coming out of the timeouts, your halftime speeches, etc.

Evans is real tough to watch and the more i see him the more i pray rob thomas can be healthy enough to take those minutes

Evans is a project & should be last big man this year.
Evans 2 tornovers last 2 mins hurt.

Too many freshman style turnovers by team.

Why no Tomas or Rob.

Tomas still hurtin ?
Rob eligible ?

real sloppy half but not suprising after the long break and all the freshman in a run and gun game

defense has been real solid so far but i wish we wouldnt try to double fisher so much bc hes eventually just going to throw up a tough shot anyway.

geno making some bad decisions driving to the hole, needs to relax and stop trying to force up shots

DJ looked real solid minus a few turnovers ... I love watching him and Justin go after board

Rob can practice but can't play a game yet til his grades are all in ... plus he only practiced 2 days

Tomas apparently is really hurting which is going to hurt us big time in the future, granted dele looked good

of course they're giong to make freshman style turnovers ... THEY ARE FRESHMAN!!

The ball should go thru Wrights hands every play.

More important than Burrell getting touches.
JB should get more shots from putbacks.

Kennedy also needs to see 25 min/game even when Mase returns

When you have no one on the ENTIRE staff that is any good at teaching offense its a problem...

Another horrible loss for Norm Roberts' resume...

No we played shitty but the bottom line is no team will win a game when they are out shot at the ft line by 30 attempts.  We lack depth as it is up front, we cant afford to have our whole front line in foul trouble.

Post by: erickthered on December 15, 2007, 06:33:13 PM
To many games we should win that we lose and no wins when we should not, the program is slipping into college hoops oblivion and we are a bottom level A-10 team at best.

agree. i'm sick of norm.  horrible job recruiting and MARGINAL improvement at best.

Post by: erickthered on December 15, 2007, 06:43:03 PM
I'll be the first one to say Norm has at least shown class and done the right thing for the univ. after the @#$% Jarvis, but lets start talking about some names and please no more asst. and no more small school guys. Maybe a Pecora but lets pretend we still matter in the scope of college hoops and get involved in some legit names who can turn it around in a little time. If not maybe we need to look in the mirror and realize what we are now.

i really like the jeff van gundy idea. 

Dude why the hell would JVG come here when he can coach the team of his choice in the league?  Some of you live in a dream world with our program and the coaches you want to be here.
Title: Re: LIVE! St. John's vs Niagara
Post by: Randomhero423 on December 15, 2007, 07:16:58 PM
i said. i like the JVG idea.  Did i say "i think he'll come here?". No.  and who knows what he's thinking.  I know he wouldn't go back to NYK and he likes NY.  maybe he wants to return to his roots in the big east (i believe he was a assitant at a few places) and bring back a NYC program.  and JVG does not have the "team of his choice" in the nba
Title: Re: LIVE! St. John's vs Niagara
Post by: erickthered on December 15, 2007, 07:19:00 PM
Agreed, about the dream world but would it hurt to at least try to go after a big name and if we cant    get that name at least we are trying. I wish we could get Cal here, but I realize he won't be coming. And one thing about the program, how and why are we watching a niagara broadcast i'm sorry but on a day we celebrate 100 yrs and mention the names that have been involved with our program it is pathetic that we can't get some games on tv and when we do it is the Niagara b cast >:(

Listen im real upset we lost, it sucks!!

Drizzle bashed everything and anything we did throughout the game not even once looking for a positive thing. 

When Mase first went down i honestly expected a crappy loss, i think we were spoiled by those easy wins early on into thinking our freshmen were not like regular freshmen.  We have no experience, we're going to lose games like this unfortunately, we just have to hope we learn from them and move on.  I was real dissappointed in Geno today and thought as our lone senior and captain he'd play a lot better but he just didnt have much going.
